Alan Tudyk, who played the endearing character of 'Wash' on <em>Firefly</em>, may be returning to television as early as this fall.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.zap2it.com/tv/news/zap-alantudykabcpilotcasting,0,3010544.story?track=rss">He has been cast in a starring role</a> for an ABC comedy that, as of yet, does not have a title. The show is being created by Max Mutchick and David Kohan, the creative team behind long-running sitcom <em>Will &amp; Grace</em>. Their new show (<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/18/will-and-grace-creators-get-new-abc-pilot/">which we've mentioned in the past</a>) is about two writers, one gay and one straight, who are in business together. Tudyk will play the gay writer, named Charlie (according to his <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0876138/">IMDB profile</a>).<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/fireflys-alan-tudyk-coming-back-to-tv/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Firefly's Alan Tudyk coming back to TV</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/fireflys-alan-tudyk-coming-back-to-tv/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1170323/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/17/fireflys-alan-tudyk-coming-back-to-tv/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>alan tudyk</category><category>alan tudyk in sitcom</category><category>AlanTudyk</category><category>AlanTudykInSitcom</category><category>firefly</category><category>wash</category><category>wash in comedy</category><category>WashInComedy</category><dc:creator>Anna Johns</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2008 18:07:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Firefly may get special edition box set</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/08/firefly-may-get-special-edition-box-set/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/08/firefly-may-get-special-edition-box-set/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/08/firefly-may-get-special-edition-box-set/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/tv-on-dvd/" rel="tag">TV on DVD</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/reality-free/" rel="tag">Reality-Free</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="148" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/04/fireflyopeninglogo.jpg" alt="firefly logo" />Jewel Staite revealed some information that may have all you Browncoats making room on your shelf for another box set of Joss Whedon's brilliant-but-canceled <em><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/Firefly/">Firefly</a></em>. Staite, you all remember, played sweet Kaylee on that short-lived series.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Firefly-New-DVDs-Discussed/9344">At a convention in Australia two weeks ago</a>, Staite mentioned that she may be headed to Los Angeles to do some commentary for a special box set of <em>Firefly</em>. Here's what she said:<em><br /><br />"I just heard that they're re-releasing Firefly, a special edition of Firefly in a box set. They actually asked me if I was able to come down to L.A. and do commentary in the spring at some point. So I think that would be fun."</em><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/08/firefly-may-get-special-edition-box-set/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Firefly may get special edition box set</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/08/firefly-may-get-special-edition-box-set/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1161505/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/04/08/firefly-may-get-special-edition-box-set/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>firefly</category><category>firefly box set</category><category>firefly on dvd</category><category>firefly special edition box set</category><category>FireflyOnDvd</category><category>FireflySpecialEditionBoxSet</category><category>jewel staite</category><category>joss whedon</category><dc:creator>Anna Johns</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:21:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>TV in comics update: Buffy, Angel, The Stranded and Serenity</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/14/tv-in-comics-update-buffy-angel-the-stranded-and-serenity/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/14/tv-in-comics-update-buffy-angel-the-stranded-and-serenity/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/14/tv-in-comics-update-buffy-angel-the-stranded-and-serenity/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/science-fiction/" rel="tag">Other Sci-Fi/Supernatural Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/buffy-the-vampire-slayer/" rel="tag">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/angel/" rel="tag">Angel</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/early-looks/" rel="tag">Early Looks</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="323" border="0" align="right" alt="buffy comic" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2008/02/13628_200x308.shkl.jpg" />It's been a while since my last review of a <span style="font-style: italic;">Buffy</span> season eight comic, and since then there's been other developments in the TV-on-comics front (we should have a category for that). Rather than dedicate separate posts to this news, I'll round everything up here, at least this time around.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</span> - season eight - Issues #10 &amp; #11</span><br />These were stand-alone "episodes," unlike 'The Long Way Home' and 'No Future for You'. A few things are revealed here that help keep the Big Bad of this season in play. Willow has even more power than we could have realized in past seasons, and an unexpected person has a crush on Buffy. I really liked 'A Beautiful Sunset' (#11) more than any other issue, with a great moment where one of the main, masked antagonists is almost revealed. Classic Joss writing.<br /><br />A new multi-part series kicks off March 5, written by veteran Drew Goddard.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/14/tv-in-comics-update-buffy-angel-the-stranded-and-serenity/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>TV in comics update: Buffy, Angel, The Stranded and Serenity</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/14/tv-in-comics-update-buffy-angel-the-stranded-and-serenity/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/1111538/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/02/14/tv-in-comics-update-buffy-angel-the-stranded-and-serenity/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>angel</category><category>angel after the fall</category><category>AngelAfterTheFall</category><category>buffy</category><category>buffy season 8</category><category>BuffySeason8</category><category>comic books</category><category>ComicBooks</category><category>dark horse comics</category><category>DarkHorseComics</category><category>firefly</category><category>idw publishing</category><category>IdwPublishing</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>serenity</category><category>serenity better days</category><category>SerenityBetterDays</category><dc:creator>Keith McDuffee</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 14 Feb 2008 15:21:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Hey sci-fi fans, do you have an extra $900?</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/10/02/hey-sci-fi-fans-do-you-have-an-extra-900/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/10/02/hey-sci-fi-fans-do-you-have-an-extra-900/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/10/02/hey-sci-fi-fans-do-you-have-an-extra-900/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/science-fiction/" rel="tag">Other Sci-Fi/Supernatural Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/tv-on-dvd/" rel="tag">TV on DVD</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/stargate/" rel="tag">Stargate</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/buffy-the-vampire-slayer/" rel="tag">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/angel/" rel="tag">Angel</a></p><p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="216" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2007/10/xfilesdvdpic.jpg" alt="X-Files set" />So let's say you had an extra $900 lying around and you really loved science fiction shows. What DVDs would you buy?</p>
<p>Amazon is making your decision a little bit easier for you. They have a <a href="http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Site-News-TV-Sci-Fi-Bundle-Amazon/8169">special bundle</a> for sale, nine different FOX/MGM shows at 49% off. OK, it's still a little pricey at $900 (you could probably put that money toward your rent), but look at what you get: the <em>Buffy, The Vampire Slayer Collector's Set</em>, <em>The Angel Collector's Set</em>, <em>The X-Files Ultimate Collection</em>, all ten <em>Stargate: SG-1</em> seasons and all three <em>Stargate Atlantis</em> seasons, all four seasons of <em>The Pretender</em> (plus the movies), all three seasons of <em>Roswell</em>, both seasons of <em>Dark Angel</em>, and<em> Firefly: The Complete Series</em>.

If so, I'd say you've entered into uber-geekdom. And that's okay, because the series really did rock.<br /><br />The Browncoats, or die-hard fans of <em>Firefly</em> who were instrumental in getting <em>Serenity</em> made, are <a href="http://www.browncoatcruise.com/">planning a cruise</a> for this December. It's a five-day excursion from San Diego to Cabo San Lucas to Ensenada, Mexico. Prices range from $570 to $1,000 for the nicer rooms. Not a bad price, really, if you're looking to escape the 'verse for a spell.<br /><br />The Browncoats, crafty as they be, have lined up Shepherd Book (Ron Glass) and Adelai Niska (Michael Fairman) as special guests.

Apparently Whedon didn't share the studio's vision for the big-screen adaptation. He says the studio could have ordered a series of rewrites until his ideas were completely lost. But rather than have that happen, he's been pulled off the project.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/02/03/joss-whedon-dropped-from-wonder-woman-movie/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Joss Whedon dropped from Wonder Woman movie</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href=http://whedonesque.com/comments/12385#more>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/02/03/joss-whedon-dropped-from-wonder-woman-movie/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/747487/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/02/03/joss-whedon-dropped-from-wonder-woman-movie/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>comic book</category><category>ComicBook</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>movie</category><category>superhero</category><category>wonder woman</category><category>WonderWoman</category><dc:creator>Brad Linder</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 03 Feb 2007 13:01:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Firefly's lost tapes of River Tam - VIDEO</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/01/12/fireflys-lost-tapes-of-river-tam/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/01/12/fireflys-lost-tapes-of-river-tam/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/01/12/fireflys-lost-tapes-of-river-tam/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/science-fiction/" rel="tag">Other Sci-Fi/Supernatural Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/short-lived-shows/" rel="tag">Short-Lived Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/retro-squad/" rel="tag">Retro Squad</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="152" border="0" align="right" alt="lost tapes of river tam" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2007/01/test2_200x152.shkl.png" />Ever wonder what happened to River during all that time she was locked up in Alliance hands? Well, now you can see what happened if you <a href="http://tv.netscape.com/story/2007/01/12/the-lost-tapes-of-fireflys-river-tam/">watch the lost tapes</a> from her "sessions." This almost amounts to torture for <em>Firefly</em> fans, because while we get some tantalizing background hints about River, it just makes Browncoats (like me) wish that this series would return.<br /><br />Can't someone pony up the cash and get this great show back on the air, make a direct to DVD movie, or even a video podcast? I'd even settle for a traveling minstrel &amp; puppet show at this point. Check out the never released grainy black &amp; white footage after the jump. It features River (Summer Glau) and Joss Whedon himself playing her counselor.<br /><br />(NOTE: The video below is currently shorter than it should be. We're working to get it fixed.

Small, fan-girl breakdown approaching. Oh, hell yes! Nathan Fillion (aka Capt. Mal Reynolds) has been reunited with <em>Firefly </em>scribe Tim Minear to <a href="http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/television/news/e3i0123c6f82e9d75a960daf0920816a410">star in Fox's mid-season replacement <em>Drive</em></a>. Fillion will play Alex Tully, a "charming, rogue landscaper" who is coerced into joining a cross-country race in order to search for his abducted wife. (Alright, if that character description came from anyone other than Minear, I might be more skeptical.) In the original version of the pilot, the role was played by Ivan Sergei.<br /><br />While he had initially been approached for the role, Fillion had to turn it down due to a scheduling conflict. After the pilot was shot, but before Fox had picked up the show, he was approached for a second time by executive producer Minear. This time he was able to accept, and the Whedonverse rejoiced. <em>Drive</em> <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/26/tim-minears-drive-coming-in-march/">debuts in March</a>.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/15/nathan-fillion-reunites-with-tim-minear-for-drive/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/719185/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/15/nathan-fillion-reunites-with-tim-minear-for-drive/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>Alex Tully</category><category>Drive</category><category>Ivan Sergei</category><category>Mal Reynolds</category><category>Nathan Fillion</category><category>pilot</category><category>Tim Minear</category><category>Whedon</category><dc:creator>Julia Ward</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 15 Dec 2006 13:03:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The Flanvention Aftermath</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/11/the-flanvention-aftermath/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/11/the-flanvention-aftermath/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/11/the-flanvention-aftermath/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/watercooler-talk/" rel="tag">Watercooler Talk</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/buffy-the-vampire-slayer/" rel="tag">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/angel/" rel="tag">Angel</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="211" border="0" align="right" alt="morena baccarin" id="vimage_1" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/12/baccarin.jpg" />I <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/">posted on Friday</a> about the craziness that was the Flanvention. After it was canceled at the last minute, fans sprung into action and organized their own <a href="http://whedonesque.com/comments/12011">little shindig</a>. And based on reports about what happened, it sounds like it was a pretty amazing substitute for the originally planned affair. <br /><br />It turns out that not only did most of the scheduled guests turn up for the impromptu gathering, but they managed to get even more people from the whedonverse in the mix as well. Fans made their way to Claire Kramer's restaurant, La Cantina, where the guest list included Nathan Fillion, Ron Glass, Morena Baccarin (pictured), Michael Fairman, Mark Sheppard, Jonathan Woodward, Yan Feldman, Christina Hendricks, Claire Kramer, James Leary, Camden Toy, Michael Muhney, and Greg Edmonson. That's an impressive list. <br /><br />Of course, while a good time was had, it's not the end of the story. The strange dealings of event planer Booster Entertainment continue. The website that mysteriously disappeared with the announcement of the cancellation has <a href="http://www.boosterevents.com/Community/Forums/tabid/326/forumid/54/postid/39311/view/topic/Default.aspx">popped up again</a>. Kind of, they are getting hammered by people looking for answers, so it's very slow when it does load. At this point the big questions everyone is asking are: Where did the money go? And where are the refunds? It will be interesting to see how it all plays out.<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/11/the-flanvention-aftermath/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/716537/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/11/the-flanvention-aftermath/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>camden toy</category><category>CamdenToy</category><category>christina hendricks</category><category>ChristinaHendricks</category><category>claire kramer</category><category>ClaireKramer</category><category>flanvention</category><category>greg edmonson</category><category>GregEdmonson</category><category>james leary</category><category>JamesLeary</category><category>joathan woodward</category><category>JoathanWoodward</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>mark sheppard</category><category>MarkSheppard</category><category>michael fairman</category><category>michael muhney</category><category>MichaelFairman</category><category>MichaelMuhney</category><category>morena baccarin</category><category>MorenaBaccarin</category><category>nathan fillion</category><category>NathanFillion</category><category>ron glass</category><category>RonGlass</category><category>yan feldman</category><category>YanFeldman</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 11 Dec 2006 13:31:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Firefly to be reborn as MMORPG</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/firefly-to-be-reborn-as-mmorpg/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/firefly-to-be-reborn-as-mmorpg/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/firefly-to-be-reborn-as-mmorpg/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/science-fiction/" rel="tag">Other Sci-Fi/Supernatural Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/games/" rel="tag">Games</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/web/" rel="tag">Web</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a></p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="157" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/12/firefly-logo.jpg" id="vimage_1" alt="firefly" />The idea for a <span style="font-style: italic;">Firefly</span> based MMORPG is one that has been floating around for a long time. When the show was first canceled, that was among the many ideas for ways to keep flying. Now comes word that <a href="http://www.multiverse.net/">Multiverse</a> has struck a deal with Fox Licensing to make the game. Wired has <a href="http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,72263-0.html?tw=wn_index_1">the complete story</a>. <br /><br />In a nutshell, Multiverse is a company founded by a team of Netscape veterans. Their aim is to create a universal platform that independent developers can create games on. The advantage being that it will be easier for smaller teams to develop games, and consumers will have the advantage of using one client that is able to play the various Multiverse products. Reportedly, there are already 7000 development teams working with the platform. The <span style="font-style: italic;">Firefly</span> game is the big feather in the Multiverse cap that will get them some much needed mainstream press. Like this. <br /><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/firefly-to-be-reborn-as-mmorpg/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Firefly to be reborn as MMORPG</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/firefly-to-be-reborn-as-mmorpg/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/714868/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/firefly-to-be-reborn-as-mmorpg/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>buffy</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>mmorpg</category><category>multiverse</category><category>star trek</category><category>star wars</category><category>StarTrek</category><category>StarWars</category><category>wonder woman</category><category>WonderWoman</category><category>x-men</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 08 Dec 2006 11:59:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Adam Baldwin kicks ass!</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/tv-royalty/" rel="tag">TV Royalty</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/cancellations/" rel="tag">Cancellations</a></p><img width="250" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="311" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/12/adambaldwin.jpg" id="vimage_1" alt="Adam Baldwin" />I'm sure that those of you that consider yourself part of the Whedonverse already know about all the shenanigans surrounding the big Flanvention this weekend. But for those of you that don't follow all things Whedon, it's an interesting tale. These are strange days in the Whedonverse. I've only been following it through random posts around the internet, so feel free to add/correct details in the comments, but here is the quick and dirty version of the story. <br /><br />This weekend there was supposed to be a huge <em>Firefly</em> event in Burbank. There was a banquet, panels, booths to sell wares, photo ops and autographs from cast members, all the usual convention stuff. It was to be a somewhat limited affair, so the tickets were not cheap. With the various events , autographs, hotels, airfare, etc. many of those attending had spent their way into four figures for this opportunity. Then last week things started to get really weird.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Adam Baldwin kicks ass!</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/715001/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/12/08/adam-baldwin-kicks-ass/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>adam baldwin</category><category>AdamBaldwin</category><category>booster events</category><category>BoosterEvents</category><category>browncoat</category><category>convention</category><category>flanvention</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>whedonesque</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 08 Dec 2006 10:00:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Joss Whedon interview on Fanboy Radio today</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/26/joss-whedon-interview-on-fanboy-radio-today/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/26/joss-whedon-interview-on-fanboy-radio-today/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/26/joss-whedon-interview-on-fanboy-radio-today/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/web/" rel="tag">Web</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/buffy-the-vampire-slayer/" rel="tag">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/angel/" rel="tag">Angel</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="202" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/11/josswhedon.jpg" id="vimage_2" alt="Joss Whedon" />Fans of Joss Whedon will want to point their browsers over to <a href="http://www.fanboyradio.com/">Fanboy Radio</a> today at 6PM CST. They'll be having an interview that also features questions from the fans. If you have a query for Whedon, you can also go to the <a href="http://www.fanboyradio.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=6680">Fanboy forum</a> and add it to the list.<br /><br /> Look for <em>Goners, Wonder Woman</em>, the <em>Buffy</em> and <em>X-Men</em> comics, and the possible future of <em>Firefly</em> to all factor into the conversation. I would expect that <em>Veronica Mars</em> just might come up as well, since Whedon once referred to it as "<a href="http://whedonesque.com/comments/7502">Best. Show. Ever.</a>" . And if this is too short notice for you, the show will be rebroadcast Tuesday at 1PM CST. <br /><br />[ via <a href="http://whedonesque.com">whedonesque</a> ]<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/26/joss-whedon-interview-on-fanboy-radio-today/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/707703/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/26/joss-whedon-interview-on-fanboy-radio-today/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>angel</category><category>buffy</category><category>fanboy radio</category><category>FanboyRadio</category><category>firefly</category><category>goners</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>veronica mars</category><category>VeronicaMars</category><category>wonder woman</category><category>WonderWoman</category><category>x-men</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 26 Nov 2006 12:04:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>The Five: Tough broads</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/13/the-five-tough-broads/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/13/the-five-tough-broads/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/13/the-five-tough-broads/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/the-five/" rel="tag">The Five</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/the-x-files/" rel="tag">The X-Files</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/strangers-with-candy/" rel="tag">Strangers With Candy</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="266" border="0" align="right" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/11/tennison.jpg" id="vimage_1" alt="Helen Mirren Tennison" />With Helen Mirren's Detective Tennison bowing out on <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/11/10/DDGEQM90ES1.DTL">Sunday's <em>Prime Suspect</em> finale</a>, television is losing one of its finest tough broads. <br /><br />Tough broads have feelings and faults, but they're nobody's baby. They also don't give a crap what you think of them. They dress for utility not for style, and they work -- usually in domains stereotypically belonging to men. <br /><br />We'll miss you, Detective Tennison. You are the inspiration for this list of tough TV broads - the ones little girls and little boys can look up to.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/13/the-five-tough-broads/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>The Five: Tough broads</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/13/the-five-tough-broads/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/700415/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/13/the-five-tough-broads/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>Amy Sedaris</category><category>Cagney and Lacey</category><category>Dana Scully</category><category>Detective</category><category>Firefly</category><category>Gina Torres</category><category>Helen Mirren</category><category>Jane Tennison</category><category>Jeri Blank</category><category>Laurence Fishburne</category><category>Murphy Brown</category><category>Prime Suspect</category><category>Strangers with Candy</category><category>tough broads</category><category>X-Files</category><category>Zoe Washburne</category><dc:creator>Julia Ward</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 13 Nov 2006 13:54:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Help Joss Whedon get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/08/help-joss-whedon-get-a-star-on-the-hollywood-walk-of-fame/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/08/help-joss-whedon-get-a-star-on-the-hollywood-walk-of-fame/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/08/help-joss-whedon-get-a-star-on-the-hollywood-walk-of-fame/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/web/" rel="tag">Web</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/buffy-the-vampire-slayer/" rel="tag">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/angel/" rel="tag">Angel</a></p><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="260" border="0" align="right" alt="Joss Whedon" id="vimage_1" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/11/joss-whedon.jpg" />Even if you're not a <a href="http://whedonesque.com/">Whedonite</a> yourself, you've got to give it up for the fans of Joss Whedon. The <em>Buffy</em>, <em>Angel </em>and <em>Firefly</em> fanatics have created a community that has held multiple nationwide fundraisers for Whedon's favorite charitable organization <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/07/13/why-we-worship-joss-whedon-video/">Equality Now</a> and single-handedly acted as the grassroots marketing engine behind Whedon's directorial film debut <em>Serenity</em>. Let's just say, they're a nice bunch.<br /><br />A group of those fans has now turned its attention to <a href="http://star4whedon.whedonversefansunited.org/index.html">honoring Whedon with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame</a>. Their collective reasoning is sorta sweet. "It's a tangible way to show respect by giving him something else to add to his legacy and to show how much he means to us...It's not all about Joss...It's about family, not the one we are born into by blood, but the one that Joss created out of his work...We cannot give him the prestigious awards; most of us are not on any academy boards, nor people that have a choice of nominations." Sorta makes you tear up a bit, doesn't it? Pop culture making the connection. The people's star.<p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/08/help-joss-whedon-get-a-star-on-the-hollywood-walk-of-fame/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Help Joss Whedon get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/08/help-joss-whedon-get-a-star-on-the-hollywood-walk-of-fame/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/697907/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/08/help-joss-whedon-get-a-star-on-the-hollywood-walk-of-fame/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>David Boreanaz</category><category>donations</category><category>Equality Now</category><category>fans</category><category>Giles</category><category>Hollywood Walk of Fame</category><category>Joss Whedon</category><category>online campaign</category><category>Serenity</category><category>star</category><category>Whedonites</category><dc:creator>Julia Ward</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 08 Nov 2006 10:07:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Nathan Fillion makes the podcast scene</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/01/nathan-fillion-makes-the-podcast-scene/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/01/nathan-fillion-makes-the-podcast-scene/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/11/01/nathan-fillion-makes-the-podcast-scene/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/science-fiction/" rel="tag">Other Sci-Fi/Supernatural Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/podcasting/" rel="tag">Podcasting</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/celebrities/" rel="tag">Celebrities</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a></p><em><img width="200" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="245" border="0" align="right" alt="Nathan Fillion" id="vimage_1" src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/11/nathan-fillion.jpg" />Firefly's</em> Captain Mal and <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/10/26/nathan-fillion-to-guest-star-on-lost/">future <em>Lostie</em></a> Nathan Fillion will be making his first podcast appearance in <a href="http://www.jchutchins.net/7Son/Home/Home.html">J.C.

According to <a href="http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=1&amp;id=38715">Sci Fi Wire</a>, he'll play a character named 'Kevin' in an episode called "I Do" which airs on November 8th. It's the last episode before <em>Lost</em> goes on a 13-week break. The story doesn't say what his role is but I'm guessing that he's in a flashback. The episode is written by executive producers Damon Lindeloff and Carlton Cuse.<br /><br />Why should you care? Fillion is a hero to many <em>Firefly</em> worshippers. He played Capt. Mal Reynolds in the short-lived series and the movie, <em>Serenity</em>.<br /><br />[Via <a href="http://blogs.usatoday.com/popcandy/?csp=1">Pop Candy</a>]<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href=http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/index.php?category=1&amp;id=38715>Read</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/10/26/nathan-fillion-to-guest-star-on-lost/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/691343/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/10/26/nathan-fillion-to-guest-star-on-lost/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>carlton cuse</category><category>CarltonCuse</category><category>damon lindeloff</category><category>firefly</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>mal reynolds</category><category>nathan fillion</category><category>NathanFillion</category><dc:creator>Anna Johns</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 26 Oct 2006 15:32:00 EST</pubDate></item><item><title>Firefly: Objects in Space (series finale)</title><link>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/09/08/firefly-objects-in-space-series-finale/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/09/08/firefly-objects-in-space-series-finale/</guid><comments>http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/09/08/firefly-objects-in-space-series-finale/#comments</comments><description><![CDATA[<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/science-fiction/" rel="tag">Other Sci-Fi/Supernatural Shows</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/fox/" rel="tag">FOX</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/oped/" rel="tag">OpEd</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/retro-squad/" rel="tag">Retro Squad</a>, <a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/category/firefly/" rel="tag">Firefly</a></p><span style="font-style: italic;"><img width="425" vspace="4" hspace="4" height="239" border="0" align="middle" alt="firefly objects in space"  src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tvsquad.com/media/2006/09/ff-ois.jpg" /><br />(S01E10)</span> While there were several great episodes of <span style="font-style: italic;">Firefly </span>that never made it to air, at least we were treated with the season (well, series) finale, albeit not in its rightful order.

Maybe you have, but you didn't get around to picking up that DVD set yet. Or maybe you just prefer your sci-fi western space-opera with commercials. Whatever the case, if you want to see a whole bucketload of <em>Firefly </em>eps, Sci-Fi <a href="http://www.scifi.com/schedulebot/index.php3?date=18-SEP-2006&amp;feed_req=">has you covered</a>. On September 18th you can catch 11 hours of <em>Firefly</em> in a row. From "Serenity Pt.1" all the way to "War Stories" beginning at 8AM EST. Set your VCR's, PVR's, and DVR's, or start prepping your excuse to call in sick. <br /><br />[ via <a href="http://www.whedonesque.com/?comments=11288">Whedonesque</a> ]<p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;">&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/09/04/firefly-marathon-coming-to-sci-fi-channel/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/forward/663533/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a>&nbsp;|&nbsp;|&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tvsquad.com/2006/09/04/firefly-marathon-coming-to-sci-fi-channel/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p>]]></description><category>episodes</category><category>firefly</category><category>joss whedon</category><category>JossWhedon</category><category>serenity</category><dc:creator>Brett Love</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 04 Sep 2006 18:59:00 EST</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
