I used to want to be an English professor, so that's why I liked Gary. (My least favourite was Susannah, Gary's wife in later seasons, but as far as regular characters, I am with you on Ellyn.)
I mean, I liked Hope and Michael as time went on and things got LESS perfect.
The jury is still out on Nancy and Elliot. I liked Nancy as a character as the series developed, but not so much at the beginning.
They have released Season One on DVD. I originally watched the show when I was in high school (a million years ago, it seems!) when it was in reruns...over the summer I found a couple of episodes on YouTube, and it was so weird to hear Melissa lamenting being 31, because I was sixteen when I first watched and that seemed so old, and I am 34 now. But I can relate to her angst, because now I know what it means. :)
That is odd that Sky Atlantic is doing that. But, at least you have a network that plays it...even if only the first two seasons. I'd love to see it again!
