"But it was the thematic writing that elevated this series into a different category than your standard fantasy/adventure fare, and that came with David A. in the second season."

David's writing definitely brought the level of the show and themes up a number of notches in both artistic and intellectual arenas. But there were still missteps.

Had Warner Stocker not died, I think other possibilities may have presented themselves sooner with the Darius character, but the Methos character got everything to gel.
