larq writes, According to Zap2it, Fox has ordered two more episodes of Firefly– so we’ll get to keep watching at least throuch December. Here’s their brief summary. Only two, after John Doe got a full season order? Not a good sign. It looks to me like they’re hedging their bets so that they’ll have new episodes available long enough to hit the days of mid-season replacements.
Go Outside!
It what is probably our first (and only) public service announcement, we say: Go Outside! Get some fresh air. Turn off the computer.
More to the point: Go watch the Leonid meteor shower tonight. Experts predict it will be one of the most spectacular celestial events for quite a while.

Charmed Discussion – “Daddy Dearest”
One of these weeks, Charmed will have an episode title that’s not a movie parody.
Andromeda Discussion – “The Leper’s Kiss”

Angel Discussion – “Apocalypse, Nowish”
According to AICN, this was the last new episode of Angel we’ll see this year. Those people know cliffhangers.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season One DVD – February 25
The first season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is coming to DVD on February 25, 2003. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; this started out weak, but grew into the best Star Trek series we’ve seen yet.

Live-Action Dragonball Z
Korei writes, FOX has apparently gained the rights to a live-action movie of the popular anime/manga series “Dragonball Z”. The info can be found at DBZ’s official site, http://www.dragonballz.com. And, Dragonball’s creator, Akira Toriyama, made this short statement about the live-action DBZ movie(from http://www.dragonballz.com/): “Recent movies have surprised us by entering such territory that used to belong only to comics with wonderful technology and wisdom. As a big movie fan, I am truly looking forward to the movie version of Dragonball. I hope you will entertain millions and millions of people with the brand new Dragonball of a totally new dimension that surpasses my imagination,” and there are rumors of the movie coming out around 2003 or 2004. You can find more information at http://www.filmforce.ign.com/. That’s all I know.
