*more agreement from me* Sierra is the character who kept me watching, and then I developed some interest in Adelle, Victor and Topher. Alan Tudyk did a great job with Alpha and I liked Dr Saunders/Whiskey. It's strange that the main characters (Echo and Paul) did nothing for me at all and I did wonder if that was because Joss had a much longer, more off-beat arc he was working on (and one that was a fantasy on being an actor on a meta level), but again - too thinky. And if I hadn't been such a huge Joss fan to begin with, I doubt I'd have stuck with the show beyond the second episode.
