But with this show, they'll show some unknown person and he'll be seen for exactly 45 seconds and disappear forever. I mean that's how long guest stars last, right? Not always. We've had Kristen since Season 1 (though she did kinda disappear during season 2 and 3). We've had Abby Ross for 3-4 episodes, We'll have Patrick Fischler for a couple more at least,

Now, granted we had Collette for all of one scene (so far), the fake psychic for all of 1 scene (So far), And a lot of the FTL characters for 1, or maybe 2 episodes at most. But they don't ALL disappear after 1 scene.

And I agree, that they should keep building up the suspense on the Sorcerer. The suspense on the Author worked out fairly well (particularly if you weren't spoiled on the reveal), and the reveal on Lily was very nice (We only saw her in 1 episode so far, but her name has come up once or twice since then, keeping her just on the edge of secrecy).

But I digress.
