Quote: response by radio show guest to Noocyte's question Yeah. Firefly was created by Joss Whedon, who did Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and was a really interesting idea, which was to essentially make a western in outer space. Now you’d think this would be a show I would hate … But it was actually very engaging and extremely frustrating that, just as we were beginning, in this Joss Whedon way of slowly unfolding the layers of these characters, that the show was yanked from the air. And so, as the caller correctly points out, the whole series came out on DVD. I’ve watched it. And, and actually that’s a good point, which is, I find that a lot of people now are waiting and watching shows on DVD because they, especially serialized shows, they like to sit down and watch three, four, five hours of a show in one sitting and you get a sense of where the story’s going, how the characters are developing. And so I think that, that kind of, and I love it when viewers organize campaigns like that. You know. And I’m not talking about those kind of, everybody signs a form, the same form letter, and sends it in. Because that’s what sunk an organization like Viewers for Quality Television. Eventually networks said, “Oh. That’s from that committee. We can ignore them because they just send in the same thing.” When it’s real, kind of grassroots, individualized pleas, the networks listen to that kind of stuff.
