It's incredible that after 7 years and so much money they made the finale to a serial that we've never seen, a pilot for a show that doesn't really pitch where the series would go (Grace staying behind?!), and a plot that makes so little sense to anyone that they can't even explain it to themselves. It's still a mad joyride though. Motorcyle chases instead of corridors. Worldwide chaos instead of an invasion of the sewers of London. It has seeds of genuine ingenuity and heart. Apparently they were basically rewriting it every day as Universal, the BBC, and Fox all constantly wanted changes, all simultaneously caring very deeply about the film in terms of their stake in it, but not caring at all about making the property viable in the short-term. Madness.
I love 'I'm half-human, on my mother's side', whether its true or not.
