I'm not sure the underlying current of optimism for technology and hope for the future that show had is compatible with the last few years!

On rewatch I think the show should have ended just have the dot com bust. The 'get the band back together and once more into the breech' final theme would have hit harder against that backdrop. After that we'd probably be watching the characters gradually debase their values as technology slowly transformed into a tool of control and oppression and I don't really want to watch that.
