It’s official. “Firefly”, the endearing space western series from Buffy creator Joss Whedon, has been cancelled.

I feel a bit guilty about this, since I really liked the show, but because of it’s “Friday at 8” timeslot, I would never remember it was on. Usually I’d be out at dinner or the movies, and I’d forget to program the TiVo. (I had meant to set a season pass ages ago…but I got distracted by something shiny.) So now it’s gone. Hopefully UPN or the WB will pick up the show and give it a proper timeslot and some publicity beyond the summer before the premiere. (It also proves that FOX doesn’t know crap about marketing to Joss’ audience.)
