It wasn't an action series, it was a stupid series. The Hulk was an action series, Baa Baa Blacksheep was an action series. SAAB was dreck. Unix didn't like it, none of the critics liked it, lots of people didn't like it, that's why nobody watched it, that's why it got canceled.

The Hulk was a super-hero series you idiot.

By the way, Ender's Game is a ripoff of Starship Troopers.

IIRC, while it is true that the ratings were low (as they usually are for sci fi,) the two main writers were also heavily involved with the X-Files and decided to drop SAAB as they felt they were getting stretched too thin.

It had a few good points that I would have liked to see develop but every person I know with some military background absolutely hated it.

SAAB Rocked. And Shane was a babe. Baa Baa Blacksheep was some of the worst dreck ever shown on TV.
