Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Admits to Canceling Firefly, Expresses Regret. Silly piece from a satire site.

I'm fairly certain that's not actually National Lampoon. It's a satire site that's on their "network", whatever that means.

cool idea. could have been a lot funnier though.

vocah | March 19, 12:19 CET

Okay, that amued me.

Say, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed does look like Ron Jeremy! And as far as the cancellation of Firefly, all I can say is, I told you so. Although I was as convinced it was a satanic cult at one point.

I too was amued, very amued. Especially by:

"At first I thought it would be funny to air the episodes out order, and none of the other executives objected," he said. "After watching the shows on DVD as they were meant to be seen, I finally 'get' the UST between Mal and Inara- a meta plot that died so young and fragile like a strangled baby bird. I feel awful about the whole thing."

The whole piece was maybe a bit puffy though IMO, needed to be punchier.

Khalid Shaikh Mohammed's hairdo is HOT! There. I said it.

Hmmm. I tried to post this last night, but something went awry. Very funny.

There seem to be no end of people/issues who can be connected to the Whedonverse. I think there should be a new game "2 Degrees from Joss Whedon."

This would be funny if it were funny.

I don't know, I like the whole concept, but it was poorly-executed.

I was thinking along the same lines when his (presumably torture-induced) confessions were first broadcast. I was thinking some tv programming-related admissions would naturally follow all of his other exploits.

peacemonger | March 19, 23:41 CET

I like the idea of him posting on fireflyfans.net, hehe.

fortunateizzi | March 20, 00:26 CET

This explanation is probably just as logical as any that Fox could give...

He also admitted to killing Shepard Book and Wash.

He also admitted to killing Shepard Book and Wash.

Well, that's just wrong. He can't poach off Joss's kills.

dreamlogic | March 20, 06:05 CET

Heh. I chuckled a bit.

I must've missed his tag on FFF.
