As PopCandy and her tipper army has pointed out this morning, Sci-Fi Channel is running a marathon tomorrow of the last 2/3's of FIREFLY's only season.  Good chance for a taste...I may bite.  But I'll tivo it, rent the first 5, then watch 'em.  That's how I roll, playaz.

I will take this as my cue to also post all these Jossverse thingies I've been collecting this week... <3 <3 <3

Mister Whedon must have been a busy, busy boy at SDCC...Let's see here: we've got the interview with Amazon's blog (in which he repeats again how much he adores BSG, this time calling it possibly the best show ever on TV *glee*).  The one with Hollywood.com.  And the one with The Onion's A.V. Club.  There's this huge and sweet piece by the pro writer who won the benefit auction for a dinner with Joss during Comicon.

And as an added bonus, let me add tangents of: Nathan Fillion talking to IGN about DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, and Upside Down and Halfway to Happy Land talking to the creator of the BtVS "ONCE MORE WITH FEELING" Sing-a-Long stageshow, which continues to tour all over the US.  And a discussion of a new book written about being a Jossverse fan, the fallacy of the ‘fanboy’ stereotype, and the many things fandom can bring into your life.

An oldie but a goodie:
TVGuide.com: Have you seen the Battlestar Galactica comic?
Joss Whedon: No, I don't think I can do it. I love Battlestar too hard. I couldn't look at any ancillary work.

TVGuide.com: I love Buffy "hard," so are you saying we fans shouldn't read the comic?
Whedon: No, because if they stopped doing Battlestar Galactica, and then two or three years later Ron Moore and David Eick said, "We ourselves are going to continue the story in comic-book form — as opposed to something ancillary to the show done by other people," then I would be all over it. People used to say, "Will you make a Buffy movie like The X-Files did?" I was like never, because while the show is going on, the show is my only priority. That's not to say the Battlestar comic isn't great, but I love that show the way other people love Buffy. I love it unreasonably. [ Laughs] It feels wrong.

TVGuide.com: Is Battlestar your favorite current TV show?
Whedon: Yes, that is my favorite show. Maybe ever.

TVGuide.com: That's saying something. Do David and Ron know that?
Whedon: I think I drooled on Ron at a dinner party once. I don't think he was thrilled.


Oh and of course: LOLBuffy macros!

Because I love him unreasonably. It feels...right.

I saw that Suz had won the action. She's one of my favorite writers. Met her at a signing and she's a lovely woman, very intelligent and personable.

HUH? Aren't you the dedicated Buffy fan who recommended that to me? It's in my queue btw on that rec. I just haven't had time to watch it yet. Yet you haven't seen Firefly?

I love it. I mourn it. In the past few weeks I think I've become more Browncoat and less Bucketeer (BSG'er). And I'm altering my DragonCon schedule a bit to catch some Whedonverse stuff.

Keep her flyin'!

Yay for Joss-the-BSG-fanboy!

And I'm with the other girls: you really need to watch Firefly. It's got so much of the camp and snarky banter and hilarious one-liners that make other Whedonverse creations so wonderful--but add a bunch of cowboy/sci-fi space opera on top of that! It's so awesome! (though, *cough*, it DID take me a couple of episodes to get into it the first time through...but it's worth it *g*).
