Teehee! Man, I wish you were watching when it was airing. :)
You sound like you have a similar history to me, though maybe a few years in front. I've now been working for the Government for almost 5 years. No more lab work, just regulating other people's products for use. Sometimes it makes me sad, but the money is much better, so I'm unlikely to go back to the lab any time soon.
It is so weird they never released the series in Canada in full. Afterall it's a Canadian show. I think they did release it all in the UK as I bought S1 and 2 off Amazon.co.uk and I'm sure there were more available, but I didn't think I'd rewatch the rest. Here in Australia, you can play any region code, so we don't have those issues.
I had all the same issues with the later seasons as you did. The Bob storyline was really just pretty dumb to my mind and the whole of the later seasons did flow very logically... I can't remember specifics, but I thought they were trying to hard to be sensational and maybe had just run out of semi-plausible ideas.
Maybe I should rewatch at some point. Your story sounds intriguing. Not sure why I never wrote fanfiction for the series. It really should have been fun, considering the science I could play with, but I think I was heavily into another fandom at the time.
Anyway, feel free to chat. My memory is pretty bad, but I don't mind at all. :)
Oh and any icons made by me are up for use, if you want any of them. I have more Regen icons around if you hit the tag.
Cheers Lizzie
Edit: I forgot to say, I'm sure they had a lot of the music up on the oficial website for free at one point, so it's nice the composer is happy to chat too. :)
