Pardon me. My last rant came out so furiously that I left off my preamble...
I can't really see where any "new viewers" would come from. The series is barely six years dust, and it was in fairly regular re-airings on FX until last year. Anyone who can say that they haven't seen must be from a part of the planet where TVs don't exist. ---------[ Received Mail Content ]---------- Subject : Re: [scifinoir2] Joss Whedon Said No To Buffy Movie Date : Mon, 15 Jun 2009 08:42:05 -0500 From : Omari Confer <clockwork...@gmail.com> To : scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com I think producers are scared of alienating new viewers by lopping on 7 seasons of continuity....the same excuse comic publishers make when there is another Spiderman #1 (Brand New Day anyone?) or a new universe all together (Ultimate Universe).
