I think, ultimately, it's the narrowness of viewpoint that will priove to be the biggest problem, and it is the absence of women that point big blinky arrows at the viewpoint problem.
Where will this show go? I mean, you can get away with a very narrow universe for a season, just like you can get away with nobody noticing demons in a high school for a season. But you've got to move on, haven't you? Unless you want the characters to stay exactly the same from year to year, something's got to change.
Right now, we've got an interesting all-male dynamic, that while interesting, has its problems. (As you've noted, E, what are they going to do with John next season??) One of those problems, a huge and nagging one, is Why don't women exist past the end credits of any given episode?
