Season finale was everything I loved about sci-fi

I thought this was a nice episode. I didn't think I'd like the Kelly/Ed stuff, but it was very nicely done. I hope they don't keep it a running thing though. The downside, though, was that it was obviously not going to work out. But, their interactions more than made up for that. They handled the situation like adults, which is rare on TV.

I liked the stuff with the weird planet. Again, the resolution was fairly obvious. It was clear that the planet needed some mythology so if it wasn't Kelly, it would've been something else. And, it really was poor judgement for Kelly to get closer to the village. She's completely unfamiliar with the terrain while that's their home turf. Despite those drawbacks, I still enjoyed it.

Humor was incorporated nicely and good character moments. It reminded me of a TOS/TNG mix. The parts on the planet were TOS like while the preachiness was TNG. Fortunately, the preachiness didn't dominate the episode. Instead, the dominant part was Kelly's understandable concern that people were being killed in her name.

It's going to be a long wait until season 2!
