Thank God.  When you said "it", I thought you were talking about Roy Vegas.

LOL

This is what I was thinking. I would have been much happier had that been the case.

I thought the same...  and would've been much sadder if that were the case.

Love this show, there hasn't been a show in TV history which fit so many laughs in 30 minutes.

Awesome!  Greatest ever?  I don't know about that, but it's certainly one of the funniest.  When it originally aired, I tried watching an episode here an there and never got it.  Then, later, after it had gone off the air, a friend of mine brought the DVDs over and we watched them in sequence, and that's when I got it.  There are so many running jokes that you don't get unless you watch them in sequence.  Very clever.

I'm glad to see it's coming back.

Firefly may have my vote for best show ever.

A handful of shows and a movie (which rarely works for comedy shows) does not equal 'coming back' in my book, but better than nothing I suppose.  Even if it seems kinda forced and stale, it's still miles better than Dancing with the C Listers and Douchebag Race 42.

Firefly was amazing!  Another season of that would rule, we could still see it someday... maybe... at least another movie!
IMO another season of Denny Crane would be the best thing ever on TV.

It'd be the bestest show evah! if Summer and Jewel ran around nekkid and had crazy lezbo makeout sessions, but alas they did not.  Except in my head, of course.

The show is COMPLETELY serialized, it absolutely requires watching them in sequence to get it. That's why it was such a commercial failure, if you take a week off you're out of the loop.

Mister Ed is my favorite show of all-time...  and yes, I'm serious.

I'm confused.  Is Dukes of Hazard coming back or not?  Or maybe the 2nd best show of all time, Airwolf!
