Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: 01_Serenity

[quote name="Fussbett"]01_Serenity So this is the two-hour planned pilot episode, which FOX said started too slow. They pushed it deeper into the season in favour of The Train Job kicking off the series, which is "all action". So did Serenity originally air as a two-parter or was it just a special two hour episode in the middle of the series? Either way, it's clear what a wonderful day it will be when episodic TV content is run right off TV and moves to the internet, leaving programming executives with greatly diminished jobs they can suck at. It'll also never happen, but that makes the <i>thought</i> even more wonderful and precious. So this episode is awesome. It's basically prequel to the movie. Serenity 0.5. The battle of Serenity Valley is a little low-budget, but everything else is either interesting backstory or interesting "first occurance of". It's crazy to think of this as a flashback episode mid-season. I'm outraged. Where's my petition?[/quote]
