Saturday night of Comic-Con, at the Entertainment Weekly / SyFy party, my world came crashing down. I'm a huge fan of Joss Whedon and I'm generally obsessed with
Firefly. I haven't had the time to make a fan vid about it yet, but believe me, I will. So, imagine my utter despair as Joss Whedon told me that
Firefly is over. "No one's ever given me the slightest hope," he said when asked about the franchise. I might be naive, but that's not the answer I was expecting. Comic books, straight to dvd, nothing?
I couldn't be all sad though. I mean, there I was, standing right in front of one of my idols, chatting with him about some of my favorite TV shows of all time. Was I happy? No, I was ecstatic! Whedon even discussed
Glee briefly with us, which isn't in the video. Evidently, he's a huge fan of the new series. Whedon tells us he promised his wife he wouldn't go to the screening at Comic-Con but just couldn't resist temptation. So, for those of you unaware, Whedon's recommendations for last year:
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (Fail guys. I mean, you couldn't help Joss out and tune in?). Whedon's recommendations for this year:
Glee. Don't let him down.
Other than that, Joss Whedon tells us what's in the works for
Dr. Horrible and
Buffy, including his take on the (second) Feature Length
Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie. Check it out below.
Don't worry,
Dollhouse news in Part 2, coming soon...
