"I'll go back and give Firefly the seven seasons Star Trek TNG had (but then that show would have ended at episode 14 like Firefly did) if you want me to."

What do you say to that?

Picard might be my favorite of the Trek captains. Hell, really, they're all my favorite of the Trek characters, but I've spent much more seat time watching Firefly than TNG. So hell yes.

I say your the devil for even suggesting such a thing. Talk about hard choices. Diabolical.
Your way of thinking is that of Lex Luthor. Before you sink California into the ocean by causing a catastrophic earthquake from a missle, I will give you my answer.

7 seasons of FIREFLY!! There are enough other Trek series to keep me satisfied...I guess.

Actually, that sounds like the sort of thing Q would do.

Of course, if TNG had died after 13 episodes, we'd never have gotten DS9 (7 years), Voyager (7 years), Enterprise (4 years), or most of the TOS movies. Not to mention all the people whose careers got started because of TNG-era Trek --including RDM, so erasing TNG might also erase Battlestar Galactica (4 years).

That's. . . a lot to trade for just seven seasons. And you know that Q's little Mirror 'Verse would have had Firefly dragged out by the networks long after Joss finished his story, resulting in our beloved work of art becoming a glitzy, underfunded ghost of what it once was. Probably with Joss and many of the original cast "released" and replaced by Whoever's Hot Now.

Ahhh...you read into my little scheme, Mon Capitan!
Besides...what would God want with a TV show?

Same goes with the original Star Trek. Just to have three seasons of Firefly...Star Trek no longer holds value.

God, Hell. If the guy with the horns and tail offered me that one, with time in the hot seat for each season of Firefly, I'd ask for the pen and pot of blood and asbestos parchment to sign on.
