I saw Serenity at the theatre - a half empty theatre
I too didn't appreciate Firefly until I saw it on DVD. I watched the premiere episode on Fox, and this spaceship dropping people on a train looked stupid to me. I sure wish they showed it in the correct order like Joss wanted.
And I also mourned the loss of Andy Richter Controls the Universe. And I liked Greg the Bunny, but that kept changing nights. And just as I started to like "The Tick" live action, it was pulled. Watching Patrick Warburton talking to a bubbling toilet had me howling.
I can't believe Fox put one their most popular shows on a break for months. I wonder how Prison Break will do in its return?
Fox reall seems to know how to dick around their shows. If is isn't American Idol or Simpsons, it seems to hop all over the schedule until it dies.
