Well, tonite was the season finale (maybe the series finale) of "Surface."
And I'm glad to see it provided some closure. Miles finally joins up with
Dr. Daugherty and Rich and the two of them get to see Nim for the first
time.

This is not closure, it's just a storyline collision. I can't think of ANY
plot thread that actually closed - just more new ones opened. *

the producers are watching lost ;)
In general i wonder why the female scintist had to stutter every
sentence she said during the season ?

To help hide the fact that they were usually filling 44 minutes of
television with about 12 minutes of story?

You saw a lot more story than I did. Unless you mean 12 minutes of story
for the entire season?

But nowhere near enough closure. It left open a host of questions, like
where is Dr. Kessler, what was his goal, why are these monorail trains going
to the Marianas Trench (how did they build a subway that big?), on and on
bdbryant...

Looks like they're leaving the door open for a second season. After all,
they suddenly started saying "season finale" last week.
But weren't they saying this would be some kind of "all will be revealed"
episode?

and on.

The big question -- are those creatures edible? Will they solve the food
crisis? Will sally struthers barbecue those creatures to feed the hungry
kids?
Kind of tired of the "creature comes to earth to use us as a source of
aalucard...

You don't remember what that reclusive female scientist said these
creaturers were created and made for the simple reason "because they
could".
These creatures are really more akin to being Frankensteins ie lab
created.
If there is a season 2 I suspect we find more people mutating like
Miles. I suspect these creatures will probably trigger an evolutionary
jump in humans. Miles seems at least in the episode where he got the
creatures back into the sea to be able to breathe underwater. At least
thats how I interpreted that scene where he walks with the creatures
into the sea.
