I was watching the extra features on the FF DVD and noticed that Tim Minear, Joss, and everybody else was lending anonymity to the Fox Executives responsible for the judgments that led to the cancellation of the show. I've done some searching but couldn't come up with anything. Has any of the cast or crew talked about who specifically made the decisions regarding the show during Q&A?

It would be nice if we could get a full story like this:

That is one of the best inside stories ever told.

That video featured Kevin Smith speaking on his dealy with Superman Lives .. the script.

Kevin Smith's Script for Superman Lives wasn't too great IMHO

Not that I'm aware of. But, An Evening With Kevin Smith rocked!

Yeah but the video did explain why. "I don't want him to fly." "Giant spider." "Who's Kal-El?" being amongst them.

Personally I've given up on my anger at Fox execs - they just follow stats blindly so how could we have expected anything different? I'm more cross at people who didn't watch the show for whatever reason - you missed out fellas!

And people wonder why some of these terrible movies ever get made.

They probably just don't want the Fox executive to get attacked by angered Firefly fans. Or possibly it wasn't only one person's decision.
