* WordOfGod: According to executive producer Robby London, the series never had a "final episode" planned or even discussed. This was because they were uncertain about the number of episodes or seasons the series would have before being cancelled. If they were to create a "final episode" and then additional episodes were ordered, it would pose significant challenges for the writers in terms of continuing the story seamlessly. Hence, the approach they took was to craft each episode as a standalone adventure, without a linear storyline, which made it easier to keep producing episodes without interruption.
