Anything Joss Whedon calls Firefly, I'll call Firefly.
The cast made the show, to be sure, but they did so on top of Whedon's words, and Whedon did the casting. He's proven over and over again that he can put together a compelling, poignant show (or comic book) no matter the premise.
I've scoffed at every single show he's ever put out:
- Re: Buffy; Who's gonna watch a remake of that movie? It's gonna suck.
- Re: Angel; Spinoff? Really? Vampire in sunny LA? Dumb.
- Re: Firefly; A space western? What? Stupid.
- Re: Dollhouse; Wow, that's abstract, even for Joss Whedon. How are we supposed to care about characters that have no character?
Every time I've ended up happily eating my words, and while I still consider Firefly to be the best science fiction TV show of all time (personal opinion), I have no qualms about somebody trying to resurrect it, so long as that somebody is Joss Whedon.
