Rumour has it that the fabulous sci-fi flop Firefly<\/i> may be headed for the big screen. Normally I wouldn’t bother reporting a rumour, but the primary source of this rumour is Nathan Fillion <\/a>– who, as the star of Firefly<\/i>, presumably has inside info.<\/p>\n

At the least, we Firefly<\/i> fans can look forward to the DVD, which will include the three episodes that were never broadcast.<\/p>\n

In other news, before Buffy <\/i>ended Bean and I had to record Gilmore Girls (also broadcast at 8pm Tuesdays) so we could watch both series. There’s a very slim connection between Buffy <\/i>and Gilmore Girls <\/i>– both series were created by former Roseanne <\/i>writers (Roseanne <\/i>being yet another favorite show of mine).<\/p>\n

I’ve finally gotten around to seeing Farscape <\/i>– we borrowed season one on DVD from the library. Geez, does that show stink! I mean, it eventually got good (about two-thirds into the season), but it took a while. Still, the muppets were good, and so were several of the actors. And I’m told that season one is the weakest season..<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
