    I’ll bet he’s talking about Bojack Horseman and how they had to double up on season 6 because it got cancelled too soon

      For anyone not familiar with the Firefly show, your comment makes very little sense. So I’d just chop in to help.

      As a little bonus, did you notice that the AA guns in the very first battle scene were Wayland Yutani branded?

        haha yep that message was a more a secret one for my fellow browncoats ;) That opening battle scene blew my mind so much when I first saw it, like the Buffy guy made this? For TV? On a TV budget?!

    And those are the best ones, considering fuckwit writers and producers can’t run them into the ground while you’re enjoying them. The Wire, Sopranos etc. will always remain excellent.

    “Threshold” is one show I really liked that nobody seems to have heard of. Sadly cancelled after one season before anything was resolved. Loved the twist about the motivations of the alien intruders, though.

    Currently rewatching “People of Earth”. Most amusing part for me is always the corporate office like vibe in the alien spaceship.

    And for me right now that show is Farscape. I don’t know if you can call it niche, but it certainly is not very well known where I live. And this show is frelling good. I love it! I love the story, I love the actors, I love all the costumes and puppets, the sets, the effects. It is better than most of the dren studios nowadays produce

      I loved farscape when I first watched it on an antenna, later when i watched the last season in a day and a half because netflix claimed they were removing it. I’d like to watch it again soon.

      Came here to mention Farscape! Best space opera ever made. Just ordered the bluray set. My first watch was about 15 years ago on a crappy laptop screen. I’ve heard the sound quality is improved drastically, even if the image quality not so much, it being an upscale rather than native 1080p
