Stephen asked: <Incidentally, why don't you like the Pylene thread ?>
It just grates on me horribly. I mean, I can suspend disbelief all the way to the Crab Nebula and back if I want to (I like *Kairos* after all!!) but this super-wonderdrug that's supposedly instantaneous, permanent and utterly without side effects, that turns people into happy efficient little workers *and* drugged-out zombies depending on script needs, and just happened to fall into Servalan/Sleer's lap at the moment she needed it ... it screams MacGuffin even louder that the Liberator turning up for Blake (and isn't nearly as entertaining to watch). And the way it's ditched after Traitor until Warlord (surely Our Heroes should have been concentrating on spreading the antidote around rather than collecting headless androids and Ogs?)
Basically, it's an insult to the viewers - the worst one in the series, IMO. There are things I like about Series 4 - a surprisong number when I sit down and think about it, more than Series 3 - but it's ruined by the Sleer/Pylene muck.
