Seems like they have a pilot script and no funding. This was way too much hype and preamble for an idea they’re still shopping around

I mean, I was going to agree with you but on reflection I wouldn’t mind Lower Decks painted Firefly at all.

The Star Trek vibes grow ever stronger with this one
How many firefly fans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
None - they just sit around and bitch about how it went out years ago
I mean, I’ll change it, where do we keep the spare Fireflies?
False dilemma presented. Classic.
For a show nobody watched, they sure have squeezed a lot of material out of it.
The first internet success case. Edit: you also can’t blame them, they aired on FOX. lol
it was the victim of a change of guard in Fox. the internal politics , not wanting the other guy to have success was the death of the series. they put it on at a horrible time slot and didn’t show it in order.
i was working an early Saturday shift at the time, so I was watching Friday night tv, and fell instantly in love with the show. even though it didn’t make a lot of sense because it wasn’t shown in order, made it mysterious and even more interesting. then they cancelled it before the whole series was presented.
I for sure helped keep it alive at the time
i was a popular person in a couple large internet circles at the time. I had been working a couple contracts at top tech jobs in Seattle. I had the ear of a couple very rich people. and my anger about it for sure helped bring attention to the injustice. I was able to invest in the DVD sale before it was announced to the public ❤️
so it’s revival is so sweet right now
Well, too be fair to the network, coming back to the series without my rose tinted glasses I absolutely blame Joss for sticking to his guns and insisting the pilot had to be feature length. That pilot absolutely could have been cut down to less than an hour, and as you said the out of order opening left audiences confused. I’d say it’s like 70% the studios fault and 30% on Wheaton.
Save Our Sailors didn’t spend all that time making websites to be forgotten like this
Yes! Gimme back my sky!
You can’t take the sky from me.
