OUCH! I fully expected to see Nathan Fillon, or at least Adam Baldwin, at the sink as he went to wash his hands (with the signed magazine tucked under one of their arms).

I guess I won't be looking forward to seeing this one.

Related, did you know it's TEN YEARS since Serenity the film came out? Thirteen since Firefly first broadcast!

Man, I feel super-old :|

yeah, I keep realizing how old I am, and yet have no perspective, really, about how long ago something aired.. songs and shows I still think are recent are nearly unheard of to my younger students.. Firefly being 13 means that some of my students would have only been 5.. yeah.. I know.. (and then I try to mention dungeon master... anyone under 35 is unlikely to have played it. )

Honestly though, when firefly came out, I didn't watch it. I didn't like the pilot, I shut it off half way through. It took about 9 years before I tried to watch the show.. only because it was on netflix :) but then I really enjoyed it..

You tell me. I mentioned Walkman when chatting with my students recently (like "people walking in the streets with earplugs in their ears listening to Walkmans") and they were just " :shock: ".

yeah, the facebook posts showing things like Audio tapes and a pencil and it says "If you get the connection... you're old"...

Man, I still can't believe Fox dropped a series from the creator of the massive hit Buffy the Vampire Slayer series. Jos is a genius on the small screen and Fox really dropped the ball on that one. I was really getting into the series, the story, and the characters when --- BOOM! it's gone!

yeah, but they, like Farscape, managed to get a bit more from the creators after appealing the cancellation via petition. It was something at least.
