QaFUS ramblings...

When I first watched QaFUS I didn't enjoy it. I've come to enjoy it over time, especially with the later episodes. Rewatching the early episodes I can work out what really got to me.
The later seasons? There really isn't much quality to them, but I can accept that and just enjoy them as entertainment value alone. Trust me, lack of quality doesn't stop me from watching a show (I watch Charmed. For that matter, I watch Smallville. *g*), and I'll even enjoy the cheesiness of it.
The problem with the start of the QaFUS first series? It's just on that edge of a really good drama. You can tell, just watching it, that it really has the potential be astoundingly good. But it doesn't ever quite hit the heights that it could. And that was distracting when I started watching, because I kept hoping for a little more depth, a little more substance, and the series never really delivers it.
It's strange, but now that I know that it's only going to go downhill from here, and I've got hooked on the dodgy plotlines and superficial morals, I can enjoy the start. I still want to see QaFUK though.
