I didn't want to waste good code.
Sure, I could have sold the code and bought a BMW, but then, there wouldn't be a great Firefly site with a great family of Browncoats.I'm definately sure I made the right choice.

I've since heard the series was cancelled because the production company went out of business (gee, I wonder why). And I've also heard that the writing was so bad that even the series finale sucked pidan (Chinese thousand years old egg).
And yes, the season finale did suck (they finally gave up pretending and had Dylan deus ex machinaed into a god

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that the code (or the site) was crap. I meant that about the time the show crapped out.
Hey, all programmers are "lazy" by trade. Who wants to rewrite code that has been written already? People who keep rewriting the same stuff over and over and over again are crazy and inefficient.

Oh...I learned something new. So who's the dad? SG1's Michael Shanks? I know they were dating for a while.
And a 5th season? Man, that just makes Firefly's cancellation hurt a bit more.

Yeah, I'm kind of curious about the pregnancy too as I hadnt heard about it and they dont have a bio for her in the IMDB.
The fifth season is going to be on sci-fi which leads me to want to withhold judgement until it starts up. Sci-fi Channel can be pretty hit and miss about quality and I'm willing to hope that they can pull off a good last season and let the show die in peace.
You know, especially since it was a good show in the begining.

Got to agree with both of you here: Andromeda had the potential to be a great show, and then became horrible beyond belief. And the finale was one of the worst-ever I've seen ... arrogant doesn't even come close.
Thanks for the segue from Andromeda to Firefly, Haken! Muchly appreciated.
Cheers,

Update, apparently Lexa's Head will be appearing on the show, as the viewscreen AI and possibly with her head mounted on someone else's body (via special effects, of course
) for the holo-rommie. She'll probably also be doing voice work (as the ship's intercomm). No actual Ship-Made-Flesh android, though.On occasion I like to look forward a couple of decades to the potential Andromeda remake (a la Battlestar Galactica 2003).
