I WOULD DEFENITELY watch that. I think that they should bring Connor and Don into a series together even if it only made half a season as long as they go out with a Bang How are they gonna play the series out, will they still have Angel leave and have his own series or what.

For the rest, I wanted to say, as always, that you have to read carefully what I wrote. I didn't say, because it would not have been true, that Simon has said, or even you, that we are stupid. That would be very stupid of him, as it is a general assesment on a group of people. But, by saying that our efforts are pointless and misguided, he is saying our campaign is stupid. That's not very nice of him, as it is really easy to criticize but hard to achieve. Maybe we can do something, so let's try. And I present again all my apologies, between Buffy fans.

Regarding the example you just quoted of the Browncoats - in the same Whedonesque topic discussion regarding this MTV article, certain posters are adamant that the Browncoats affecting the creation of SERENITY is a load of propaganda. So if Leo is coming off as defensive in response, I think it's because his fan efforts and vision have been effectively labeled as foolhardy and doomed to fail while raising false hope for the fans. My efforts as well as one of the proponents of the petition to show fan support of this project that never saw the light of day. Seven completed scripts collecting dust... Being too jaded to open yourself to the possibility of influencing others with your passion and your actions means you've given up on proactive and creative change. You've lost belief in the power of your own voice and by not believing, you've doomed yourself to this fate through your own lack of action. Self-fulfilling prophecy. Good things don't just happen out of the blue. You make them happen. For anyone who doesn't believe they have the power to effect change. You're right - you don't. But it's your lack of belief that makes it so. The naysayers of the world are good at one thing - crushing the hope for effecting change. I'm glad they weren't around during the Women's Rights movement - looking at those insurmountable odds, they would have packed up and gone home. And I wouldn't have the right to vote this coming November. ~Emmie Slaylive.com Linnea1928 -

To be fair to Leo, the current attitude by some Buffyverse fans over this issue is very pessimistic. Regarding the example you just quoted of the Browncoats – in the same Whedonesque topic discussion regarding this MTV article, certain posters are adamant that the Browncoats affecting the creation of SERENITY is a load of propaganda.

So if Leo is coming off as defensive in response, I think it’s because his fan efforts and vision have been effectively labeled as foolhardy and doomed to fail while raising false hope for the fans. My efforts as well as one of the proponents of the petition to show fan support of this project that never saw the light of day. Seven completed scripts collecting dust…

Being too jaded to open yourself to the possibility of influencing others with your passion and your actions means you’ve given up on proactive and creative change. You’ve lost belief in the power of your own voice and by not believing, you’ve doomed yourself to this fate through your own lack of action. Self-fulfilling prophecy. Good things don’t just happen out of the blue. You make them happen.

For anyone who doesn’t believe they have the power to effect change. You’re right – you don’t. But it’s your lack of belief that makes it so.

And calm down. I was not calling anyone stupid, neither was Simon. I was just letting you know what I heard. Sure, maybe with all the publicity there is a chance to bring back the show, and it would be great if it happened (big fan right here!). Of anyone, we Whedonists know the kind of impact fans have (hello? ever hear of Serenity, the feature film of a cancelled TV show because of the fan response). So stop being so defensive. We are all just trying to interpret this article. I just want to clarify: I am not Simon. And calm down. I was not calling anyone stupid, neither was Simon. I was just letting you know what I heard.
