Lords of Kobol, hear my prayer...

It’s surprising that Dark Angel never had much of a fandom presence because I remember that the first season had a *lot* of hype behind it as it was created by James Cameron, and the ratings were actually really strong. It had critical praise too, Jessica Alba was even nominated for a Golden Globe I seem to remember, yet these days it only seems to be remembered as some cheesy Sci Fi show that was never taken seriously. That’s just not the case, the world building for the first season was actually pretty incredible and a lot of money was spend on creating that world. Plus Max was such a badass female character, and at the time it was very unusual for the lead to not be a white female, so it was pretty groundbreaking in that respect

It definitely deserves more appreciation than it gets
