When's Firefly gonna be on?

[avram]

So I’ve been looking forward to Firefly, the upcoming science-fiction show from Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I’ve been seeing ads on Fox saying “Fridays on Fox”. Now I just saw one saying Wednesdays. Huh? The Fox website for the show tells me the premiere will be on Friday, 20 Sept., but doesn’t say when the show will be regularly showing. This fan site also says it’ll be showing Fridays. I’m confused. Help me, Media Babe!

And a bit of unwelcome news on the fan site, Fox made Joss reshoot the pilot — they want more action and less drama.

Try living in the Rocky Mountain time zone, and notice that it is so unimportant that it is simply never mentioned by tv networks.

Curiously, everything is an hour earlier here than either East or West Coast: network news is at 5:30 p.m.; Leno, Letterman, and Nightline at 10:30 p.m., etc. Prime time runs from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.. It's unnatural, I tell you!

I blame the Republicans.
