The Express Yourself Weekly Meme is hosted by Jackie @ Bouquet of Books and Dani @ Entertaining Interests.
The prompt for this week is: Name ONE cancelled/retired TV show you'd love to see back on with new episodes.
Though there are a lot of shows that I could list, there is only one that declared itself loudly in my mind the moment I read this prompt.
Firefly was never given a fair chance. The massive fan base it developed immediately following cancellation proves that the show deserved a longer run than it got. I love the story, the characters, and there are so many unanswered questions that it could drive a person crazy. One season was not enough, and although the movie Serenity is completely awesome and I'm glad it exists, I still want more.
Before I go, I'd like to take a moment to pay my respects to Tina Downey. Tina, though you may be gone, you will be always be a part of our blogging community. Thank you for brightening our lives with your optimistic nature.
I so agree with you about Firefly - Serenity was definitely not *enough*. I'm not sure they could ever give us enough. But at least we can re-watch the series & the movie over and over and never get sick of it!
ReplyDeleteI was so sad to hear about Tina Downey, though I didn't know her very well at all. She was a good friend to many in this community.
That would be my pick!
ReplyDeleteStill can[t believe she's gone.
Ah, Firefly, you left us too soon. It was a beautiful mix of western, steampunk, space opera, and comedy, wasn't it? I meet people from time to time who have never seen it and do my best to turn them into fans. A shame about Tina, thank you for putting up the link to her blog.
ReplyDeleteFirefly! You're so right... one season wasn't enough. :(
