I think I'd like to see it on SciFi as well. I've been happy with the way they've treated Stargate. However, that whole Farscape debacle kind of makes me wary. Never saw that show, but heard they treated is horribly. The WB is another possibility IMO. They seem willing to give cult shows a chance, but then they've also done bad in the past.

This definately sounds like good news. I get the feeling that joss maybe wrote the best script imaginable but one that somewhat ended things ie. killing main characters over exposing killing blue hands/reavers but after reading the script and seeing the dvd sales the universal executives realised the potential for a series and asked him to write something that leaves it more open for a return.

I'm in St. Louis, and I would make whatever plans were necessary to drive over to Raleigh (as luck would have it, I LOVE to drive) for a shiny premiere.

Question, though, Static...Will you be stateside by then? It would truly suck indeed if you couldn't attend your own shindig.

I will be stateside in MAY, by dear girl. 10 weeks left in the special hell.

Firefly 2: Take That!


Whoo hoooo!!!!!
Here's a movie title suggestion

Firefly:
And the Horse You Rode in On

Wouldn't that look swell on a marquee? heh.



And hey! Oklahellma is in the middle of the US -- y'all are all invited to come take over a theater here! And I got a theater all picked out -- it's right across the road from the Cowboy Hall of Fame.

NC is more'en a slight haul for me but if there's a movie and Static can get his friend to give a premeiere, I'll flash my a$$ to every State Trooper from here to Raleigh (or maybe I'll just fly in.)

Joss can take all the time he needs so long as we keep getting good news like that. My week just got about a thousand times better.

UPN could use the ratings boost, and it would beat the hell out of anything else on that woebegotten network. However, if it were on SciFi, at least they would not be as inclined to kill it. And, if the new BSG series is also on SciFi, "Super Shiny!"

Alright. Let us take a look at this logically. Sci-fi is a cable channel, and has far less money to produce a show, then say, Fox. They wouldn't be able to produce the same kind of Firefly that we all know and love.

No arguments there. They don't have the resources of the four majors.

However, they make their own programming all the time. They do manage to make SciFi Original movies all the time. Also, they produce other shows like SG-1 each week. While they are smaller than say Fox, we don't know how much money they have to throw around.

So, in conclusion, who knows?
