I loved this show...

...but I guess the ratings weren't good enough to keep it on the air. If "they" were to put the episodes on a DVD, I would certainly pick up a copy (or two) and share it with those who didn't get the "Chance" to see it.

If it ever comes to some cable channel in reruns, you should try and catch it.
