i disagree in regards to Angel. This season beats what I caught of season 4 by a mile. It's just coming back in time to be cancelled.

Yeah, some triple-posting issues going on there.
I despise the Fox network more for all the "reality" trash is plays. This, of course, directly relates to the cancellation of Firefly, since the network barely gives anything besides the reality shows a chance. Look at Wonderfalls - a show with quite a lot of potential, though not yet fully realized, will likely fall to the same fate. The only reason to watch the network now is 24, which is actually this season's best show.
Everytime I see an episode of "24"--which is coming back next week YAY!--I'm amazed that Fox not only didn't drop it, but has brought it back twice.
The thing that galls me about Fox's treatment of Firefly is that nowadays, they will run repeats of a show until that show finds its audience.
That's what they did for "The O.C."
I'm thinking that Fox never really wanted Firefly: "Um, we don't want to show the Pilot, write us another whole new episode over the weekend and we'll see."
I hope they're sitting there looking at the DVD sales, hearing about the growing buzz amongst fans and converts about the movie, and feelin' all kinds of stupid.

I mean would I love it this much, would the tone of it be this right, if it hadn't been on the chopping block for a while to then ultimitly be killed.
I mean it's a show about people who got stood on by the man that itself got stood on by the man.
On those last episodes I can feel Fox' cold death hand hovering over them - I can feel the tension from them on the horizon from the first episode - and you know....it just fits.
It's like Serendipity - you think?
yes, yes!! all that and the untold story. what happen next?? tell me more!!
