I love the father/daughter relationship. It is really well done and especially well acted.
I think this might be an O'Bannon thing.

That`s a good point about Alien Nation. I didn`t make the connection till just now but I can see the similarities. Their scenes in episode 3 were really quite moving for me.

I think the show will slowly reveal everything, too, but as I said....very slowly.

I hope so. I don`t mind too much invoking a bit of google fu to check some facts but I don`t plan to get into the game or anything.
