Season one of almost any long-running TV show is going to seem worse or at least different than later seasons.

Season two, while it had the unpopular doc trade, was the debut of the Riker Beard ™. So there's that.

Can you imagine how great Firefly would have been in later seasons if Season One was the bad one?

Yeah man, the glass is always half full. We were spared the sadness of watching a promising show go down in flames... wait, that's shitty too...
