There are fourteen episodes of Firefly that were made here, before it got cancelled. And there are 20 episodes of Firefly in the other dimension, therefore, six episodes made there that weren't made here.

 

In that dimension, people in the movie and Television business make opposite decisions to what they do here. So, Firefly didn't get aired in the wrong order and thus, didn't get cancelled. Return of the Jedi was the best film of the STAR WARS trilogy, and the prequels were way better than the originals, in terms of acting, direction, sets, plots. etc.

 

But then again, Doctor Who is a teenage angsty mess over there, so it's not all good stuff. And Arnie is considered a Shakespearean actor.

Well, after returning from the alternate universe yesterday (because I was battling my evil doppelgänger) I managed to nick a few dvds from there.

 

Looking forward to watching seasons 2-9 of firefly

 

;)

:(

Oh yeah, forgot to write about this.

;P

 

Seasons 2-5 are probably the best, as are the six extra episodes of season one that weren't made in our dimension. Seasons 6-7 were ok, but they were pretty lacking. 8 and 9 were crap, sort of fizzled out near the end. Although the climax episode directed by Jonathan Frakes was great.

Wait a minute. Doing some studying on the SE's came across this:

"In fact, the original negative from the Jabba sequence had disappeared: all that existed was a 15-year old interpositive."

If a deleted scene can be put alongside the ON, why can't they scan that IP or another one for the OUT?

because they're lazy buggers, that's why

Over here, when it was first broadcast in the 90s (the best era for television ever) they just called it the new adventures of superman, not Lois and Clark.

That's a very common practice. No idea why. Batman Beyond was Batman of the Future in the UK, for example.


Oh yeah! I remember that! Completely forgot it's original UK name when I had got them on DVD

The link below leads to a list of shows in the UK based in American ones. Many of the shows are the exact same format, but have a new name (like Family Feud --> Family Fortunes):

Hmmm.. We seem to have alot more success adapting your television to our screens than you do adapting our TV for your screens...
