At 15 years old, this sci-fi gem beat the odds of cancellation and boldly told stories that could alienate new and old viewers.

It got weird because Fox fucked it. It was supposed to be drawn out over more seasons, but Fox decided to put it in the Friday night "death slot" causing viewership to drop, so since they weren't going to get renewed any further, they had to cram the end in so that at least the story wouldn't go unfinished.
