Am I the only one disturbed by this? I mean I’m glad for Joss, he has to eat and put food on the table, but going back to f*>< ? Didn’t he get enough of a beating last time. I donno maybe there’s more to the agreement then they're willing to say right now. Thought I’d read somewhere where he said he’d never work for f*>< again.
I want more FF/Serenity not a new show called Dollhouse. To be honest I’m not a Buffy fan, not an Angel fan ( have never seen an eps of either one) not to say they aren’t good and deserving of my attention but what has brought me into the realm of JW was FF/Serenity. My first Whedon adoration, and I’m ready to wade through blood and guts to get it back. Dollhouse may be a very good show in fact I’ll stick my neck out and say IT WILL BE VERY GOOD. But then so was Drive. Tim Minear had a good thing going there, what happened?
Joss you said you wouldn’t rest till you found FF a new home, I’m there with you. Go ahead and do other things to keep the old brainpan from collecting cobwebs just don’t forget your old cast and crew that still bring so much excitement to the cons on behave of your FF creation. Believe it or not you have a very big group of loyal believers and followers don’t be the kinda person that cops out when the going gets ridiculously hard. It’s been hard for all of us.
Loyal FF/BDM fan, Z

And new cred from a new hit show could only help the FF cause, so smile!

Z,
Disturbed. No. dissapointed for about two hours, yes. Poked my lip out and pouted internally. Then I was like, "Here's hoping for something good"
For NEW, witty, Joss dialouge, I'm down for whatever.

Whoa... good fantasy.
It's *was* just right Chrisisall.
OH CRAP!!! Joss Whedon is making a new show called Dollhouse!!!
Quote:
Echo (Eliza Dushku) a young woman who is literally everybody's fantasy. She is one of a group of men and women who can be imprinted with personality packages, including memories, skills, language—even muscle memory—for different assignments. The assignments can be romantic, adventurous, outlandish, uplifting, sexual and/or very illegal. When not imprinted with a personality package, Echo and the others are basically mind-wiped, living like children in a futuristic dorm/lab dubbed the Dollhouse, with no memory of their assignments—or of much else. The show revolves around the childlike Echo's burgeoning self-awareness, and her desire to know who she was before, a desire that begins to seep into her various imprinted personalities and puts her in danger both in the field and in the closely monitored confines of the Dollhouse.
AAHHHHHHHHH, HELL YEAH!!!
*joins in the Dance of Joy*
I'm so excited just posting about an UPCOMING Joss show! Joss and Tim and Eliza (and who all else) coming together to entertain us.
What the hell are all you whinners complaining about!!!
*mocking* "Ooo, the show's gonna be on F*X. We hate F*X, there for Joss must be an idiot, errrr."
Oh yeah, I'm skeptical[read:hate] and cynical of F*X like everybody, but my like of Joss is much more than my hate of F*X, and I AM gonna watch the show, gorramit!

Exactly!
(I swear, WYTCHCROFT, EMBERS, CHRISISALL(mostly, last 3/4-with exceptions-of season seven not so great), and ME must be all on the same brain-length. I'm always agreeing with you guys/gals.)
I just hope it's on Tuesday night, so it doesn't conflict with Heroes or Lost when it comes back.
Can't wait.

Can't say I've met any of them personally, but I'm pretty sure that Joss, Tim and Eliza aren't fools. As far as I'm concerned, them going back to Fox - while most, if not all of us have our reservations about the show cancelling bastards - is actually a very good sign. Fox must have made some pretty big assurances to Joss and Tim for them to go back and if Fox want them that much then maybe, just maybe they're starting to realise how much money they can make them - and that is good for Firefly, me thinks.

You guys have made me feel better with your posts,thanks!
I still live with a little fear that Firefly and Serenity will fade into the dust. They seem to be treating it like it's a waiting game. You know, trying to wait us out. Distract and conquer. Well I for one don't think it will work. WE HOLD!! One day I will see Buffy and Angel and I'm sure I will enjoy them, but for now I'm a member of 3 FF/Serenity fan sites and I will never grow tired of being a fan of that show,ever.
see ya,Z

One word folks....FOX. It has happened once and if Dollhouse goes a couple weeks without ratings it will get the hook too. Look at "Drive"...good show, good advertising and yet....it got the hook. I won't hold my breath on this surviving and wait to see "Goners" in 2009
......I brought the Grenades.

z: seriously,
no body wants to forget about Firefly/Serenity...
not just the Browncoats here, but Joss has said many times that he still totally loves his BDHs!
But he can't just be unemployed crazy comic book guy,
no one in Hollywood would respect him as crazy comic book guy...
in Hollywood they are only interested in your latest thing.
Best way he can get a Serenity sequel is to have some good money making shows!
When he is again making lots of hit shows and selling lots of advertising,
then everyone will come knocking on his door BEGGING him to make a sequel, and Goners, and anything else he wants to do!
seriously.... starting new projects is the only way.

joss has a new freaking show!:) thanks Eliza!
a green light is a green light - not a locked door.
no show of Joss's has let me down yet.
i hope it does real well and a million offers flood the whedon homestead.
'bout frackin' time!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
And whoever got all pissy and said Joss was "naive" to trust FOX again is clearly "naive" about the way Joss thinks. He wants his shows and projects made, including potential Firefly/Serenity ones, he accepts that he has to be willing to make certain sacrifices and that unfortunately happens to include working for people who have screwed him over in the past.
And "teenfest"? Eliza is in her mid twenties, and we have no ideas yet about what the other characters are going to be so why should we assume that they'll all be teens, or women, for that matter?
***********************************************
Buffy: I'm just worried this whole session's gonna turn into some training montage from an '80's movie.
Giles: (sighs) Well, if we hear any inspirational power chords we'll lie down till they go away.
"They talk about me in the chatty rooms?"--Angel
"There's a hole in the world. Feels like we ought to have known."--Spike
Joss is like a present, he's like a gift as far as I'm concerned.--Ron Glass
for Joss

Didn't read all the replies.
It appears that Fox is starting to realize it's mistake the last time it cancelled a Joss series - FF DVDs still selling.
I might dream that Joss & Tim makes gobs of moola off this series, and then make a movie about a spaceship run by browncoats.
I do wish them success. I also want more Serenity.
