Oh yeah, all that too - the whole redemption aspect, justice. I guess in my discussion, I was really referring to the show's aesthetic, which is undeniably gritty and a little melancholy.
Was 'Fly Away' the episode where the little girl was thrown from the window? That one had quite an impact on me.
The one about the abortionists and the gaybashing episode were both pretty masterful too, but my favorite was 'Boy In The Box' for sheer pathos and oddness (the whole irradiated foods subplot).
