unfortunate implications need citations.


* UnfortunateImplications: The planned ending for the series would have had the objects create an alternate "perfect" reality, in which the various characters wouldn't have made certain key decisions in their past, leading to a new reality where Zoe worked in mission control and was raising Donner's child, instead of having an abortion and becoming an astronaut. Needless to say, no matter where one falls on the issue of abortion, having an entire reality declared ''invalid'' because she chose to put her astronaut career over motherhood, seems a little... extreme?!

Added DiffLines:

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: The series seems to expect us to root for Zoe/Donner. But witness ''just how often'' she tells him to back off and he continues to [[StalkerWithACrush push into her space]] and intervene in her life as if he has a right to. While sleeping with someone else, even!

* TooGoodToLast: The show had been canceled and its sets destroyed ''before all the episodes had even been aired''. That does not even consider that Creator/{{ABC}} had all summer to buy and advertise the show, but only purchased the show 3 weeks before the first episode aired.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Zoe's Halloween costume, after her hysterectomy, is what she would "never become": [[spoiler: a pregnant astronaut]]
* FoeYay: Paula and Wass
* FridgeBrilliance: Why do we have FTL communication in an otherwise fairly hard Sci-Fi show? The Alpha and Beta objects when they're first detected communicate using some sort of FTL radio, their communication is picked up by radio telescope scientist types, and there's clearly no communication lag. From studying the communication and the Beta object FTL telecomms is born.
