Why
Wednesday, May 14, 2008

Why? It's something I ask a lot, about a variety of things. Sometimes it comes with melodramatic body movement, sometimes just with a whine. I ask why about tv series a lot. It seems every time a show comes along and captures my attention, it's cancelled. Dresden Files, Surface, Farscape and Firelfy. Firefly was special, and I think that was its doom. The Gods of TV don't know what to do with something special, something unique, something that isn't the reality show flavour of the month. One of my favourite anime series is Cowboy Bebop and Firefly had a bit of the same spirit. I miss it a lot, but at least I have the box set and movie. And maybe another one at some point, who knows?

It is amazing that the "TV Gods" are fickle and no not what to do with something "special." I remember a series "My So-Called life" then there was "Joan of Arcadia." But Firefly is a once-in-a-lifetime TV series that has something unique and long-lasting (M.A.S.H., All in the Family) that touches people. Try getting that with the flavor of the month reality show. Maybe each Browncoat should ask why, and not just to Sci-Fi. Bring back Firefly!

why is a valid question. Write to SciFi and ask them to add it to their roster. dunno how many people have actually done that. feedback@scifi.com Never hurts to ask.

All hail the power of a good and devoted fan base. It can work miracles. Just look what happened to the original Star Trek.
