For years, I've said that they should make a series that fills in the gaps between the show and the movie, but they shouldn't try masking anyone's age. Adam Baldwin should be bald with zero context.

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

I guess its time for another re-watch.
Oh so this is what his stuff on social media was about...I guess it's better than nothing.
This looks to be a nonstarter, especially after Hulu cancelled the Buffy reboot. Disney seems to be reigning in and focusing now that it has full control of Hulu.
If the IP was owned by WB or Paramount/CBS, it might have a chance, but this appears to be more of a case of Fillion and the some of the original creators trying to make a case to use the IP than any interest from Disney.
It sounds like they're going to be shopping out around to non-Disney buyers, which is a bit of a rarity these days.
It's hard to get a handle on what happened with the BtVS reboot, but one article I read suggested there were (unspecified) concerns with the pilot.
In a conversation that I saw elsewhere, there were points made regarding some fairly cringey elements in the original seasons that would not be well received by progressive audiences now. However, reworking these would invite backlash.
It’s a fine thing to thread around and it’s not obvious that the creators or Fillion are up for it. Fillion in particular has managed to alienate a lot of fans in the past decade.
He has? What did he do?
Filion made unfortunate statements defending Joss Wheadon and arguing that he should be’uncanced’’

There are widespread reports of toxicity between Fillion and his Castle costar Stana Kari’s.
In 2019, a cast member of The Rookie quit citing sexual harassment and racial discrimination.
It's always seemed to me that the Firefly cast got the "best" version of Whedon.
Which in no way absolves him of anything he did on other productions - just an observation.
I hope this fits between the show and the movie.
Sounds like that's the plan - tough to include Tudyk otherwise.
