Firefly should be brought back by Russel T. Davis

Regeneration of course, is how it came back. :p

But after 16 or so years off the air, the people who loved the show were in the positions to say lets bring it back. i.e they were TBTB.
 
If only. I wonder how he'd get on with Joss Wedon?
I can't see these two getting along very well. Russell T. Davies is a very enthusiastic, manic, kid-in-a-candy-shop by the way of P.T. Barnum kind of character, while Joss Whedon is a snarky, dry-witted, hyperactive gifted kid geek mastermind.
 
Jayne: "Here, Mal. Who exactly is this here Jack fella we picked up last planetfall, and why's he keep saying hello to me?"
 
The notion of Jack and Jayne interacting is possibly even funnier than the idea of Jack and River...(Song that is, not Tamm!)

Doctor Who's Russell T Davies greatly influenced by BtVS. Creator Russell gladly acknowledges that Whedon's sharp, playful, but also dramatically-deep writing style had great influence on him with regards to Dr. Who.

“[Buffy the Vampire Slayer] showed the whole world, and an entire sprawling industry, that writing monsters and demons and end-of-the world isn’t hack-work, it can challenge the best. Joss Whedon raised the bar for every writer—not just genre/niche writers, but every single one of us.”

IIRC the two have since met, got along very well, have expressed nothing but admiration for the other's work, and, have both expressed the desire to collaborate together on something should the right project come along.

Well, if you gonna sink so low as to bring in facts, I don't think there's any point in bothering to debate with you

;)
 
I suppose if Firefly had run for 25 years someone might have considered 15 years later to bring it back on air. :p

Though what would Matt Smith know about bringing it back anyway he should be talking to Eccleston or Tennant at least.

In all seriousness though it's always cool to see two icons together.

I didn't know they met, but the two are definitely fans of each other. Whedon even had two background extras in one of his comics who resemble the Tenth Doctor and Rose standing by a phone booth.
 
I would cry. Nu Doctor Who is one of the worst shows I've ever seen.

I suppose if Russel T Davies did Firefly every episode would end in a deus ex machina.
 
And I would rejoice. As Nu Doctor Who is one of the best shows I've ever seen, and it just keeps getting better and better.
 
I would be thrilled.

IF!!! it's either recast or waits till Castle is done.

I know what my priorities are. :evil:

if Firefly was still going, and RTDs was still doing Doctor Who, a producer swap episode could have been fun.
