But they're hopefully smart enough to realize that an X-Files-esque fizzle will spark massive geek-filled riots. Honestly, I'd be surprised at this point if they go beyond 5 seasons.

Meant to respond to this, as well. I've only read that the show will go on for 5 season and 5 season only. I thought that was their plan all along, even if the show was a HUGE success. At this point, I think it would be a HUGE mistake to drag it out past 5. But I say this because I'm feeling dragged along in the 3rd. And I don't have a problem with slowly paced shows. I loved the first season of Carnivale. When the creator was made to increase the pacing, everything was thrown off balance and forced and it really hurt the show. Ah, well. Thems the breaks.
