Yeah, since the writers fumbled the ball so badly on it. (Yikes, did I just use an American football metaphor?) There were things to like about it, certainly, but Zero's failure to live up to audience expectations overshadowed the good points it had. And much as I like the concept of multiple versions of what happened, three is just insufficient, and the 42 minute cap be damned. Why yes, Rashomon is one of my favourite works of literature. That's what got me thinking about a Zerofic in the first place; it was figuring out a basis for more and-maybe-it-happened-this-ways that had me stumped. Now it's just a matter of writing it.
