I disliked that as I was interested in his impact on the other characters rather than in their impact on him.
*nods* Much the same here -- I don't find his sort of idealistic-crusading-hero sort all that intriguing on its own, but the early seasons where his drive to Save The World is constantly crashing up against Beka's crew of scruffy, cynically jaded survivors, and Tyr's flat-out what's-in-it-for-me absolute self-interest, were somewhat nifty. With Tyr gone and more of the Maru folks falling under Dylan's spell and the spotlight focusing more and more on him, my interest in the show slipped a lot. I still watched all of the last season because it was there and it was something to play in the background while I was knitting or doing other stuff, but for the most part I didn't really care, either -- it was pretty much at the level of a mystery novel where I only bother to keep turning pages 'cause I need something to read on the train and I'm idly curious as to whodunit.
