Line 29:
* [[Ship to Ship Combat]]: [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|Helen/Nikola]] vs [[Love Makes You Evil|Helen/John]] vs [[Dry Docked Ship|Helen/James]]. Meanwhile, [[Mentor Ship|Helen/Will]] shippers are roundly mocked, and [[Les Yay|Helen/Ranna]] shippers are thoroughly ignored.
* [[Special Effects Failure]]: As a [[Sci Fi Channel]] original series, the show expectantly runs into this. However, it's not the low-budget CGI (which is surprisingly decent) that does it for fans, but the goofy-looking muscle suit that the lead actor wears when he's turned into a hulking freak.
* [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]]: The reaction of some fans to the new opening theme.
* [[They Just Didn't Care]]: One is tempted to think they didn't do research with their original claim about the Arthur mythos that makes the morrigan a creation of Morgan Le Fay but actually they had to do some research to get that far, so one shall guess they just did not care.
* [[Values Dissonance]]: A little over a hundred years ago, Helen and the rest of The Five hunted down a dangerous man who attempted to kill most of London. He also had Dissociative Identity Disorder, and thus wasn't fully responsible for his behavior. Nevertheless, Helen did her level best to kill him in cold blood in order to protect society, believed she had succeeded, and is still pretty okay with that. Will, a modern psychologist, is appalled.
* [[What an Idiot!]] / [[Wrong Genre Savvy]]: [[Ascended Fanboy|The Adjuster]]. {{spoiler|Apparently, at no point after getting his [[Clingy Costume]] [[Clothes Make the Superman|with associated]] [[Flying Brick]] [[Stock Super Powers|powers]] did he draw the obvious [[Spider Man|Venom]] parallels and worry about [[Power Degeneration|the suit being harmful to his health]].}}
** {{spoiler|Given how it's stated that the suit won't go off until you actually want it off, it's probable he didn't care.}}
* [[The Woobie]]: Henry.
