You are the head of a major network: Firefly vs the new Battlestar Galactica

[Zweihänder]

No love for Zoë or Inara, eh?

With Zoe, it depends on the episode. Inara just pisses me off.

And, of course, f--k Simon.

Of course, this poll shows the whole problem with TV today.

Because a *real* TV executive would cancel them both and replace them with the latest re-regurgitation of Law and Order or CSI, preferably both!

PS Firefly won my vote by a nose.

Which just goes to show how different tastes can be, since I like the rest of those shows but consider the new Dr. Who to be some of the worst television I've seen. Ever.

Different strokes, clearly.

I've encountered a number of different opinions regarding the new Doctor Who, but I don't think I've encountered anyone else who dislikes it quite that much.

Oh well. As you say, different strokes. Cheers!

I was hoping for a Lost spinoff.

No they're making a movie instead, because they can't afford to pay the cast of Lost what the cast of Desperate Housewives makes otherwise.

Again the fact that I would never put drek like Desperate Housewives on the air, much less pay them ungodly sums of money to make it, means I am not TV exec. material.

Im just not in tune enough with the lowest common denominator.

That "making a movie because they can't afford the cast" thing is pure internet rumor, propogated by one "news" site. 'Tis simple BS.

No, it just means you're ill-suited for mainstream network.

I would have sacrificed every darned new series on television this fall for a Firefly season.

I would have sacrificed every Star Wars Prequels for a trilogy of Serenity films.

 

[Flexor the Mighty!]

I would have sacrificed every Star Wars Prequels for a trilogy of Serenity films.

And I would sacrifice everything for a Prequal to the Star Wars Prequals. As long as Jar Jar is in there.
