Looking forward to tonight's premiere of Joss Whedon's new series, Firefly, which seems an awful lot like a flashier, sexier version of the British cult fave Blake's 7 (which itself was a darker and more complicated answer to Star Trek, and happens to be my all-time favorite science fiction television series). Let's hope Joss and Company can pull this one off, because with the untimely demise of Farscape, sci-fi fans need something more than a few scattered crumbs from the Trek franchise every now and then...
