I mean, I was going to agree with you but on reflection I wouldn't mind Lower Decks painted Firefly at all.

I like Lower Decks myself and I only consider myself a casual fan of Firefly. Firefly had its own tone and direction that set it apart from the other sci-fi shows during its run time. I would like to see it maintain that uniqueness on the new project. The animated series market is a bit saturated and network/streaming platform execs seem to be more concerned with reliable profits than bold new ideas. I imagine there is going to be some pressure to emulate the success of existing animated shows. I just would hate to see some producer turn something potentially fresh into something we’ve already seen 5 seasons of, just on a different spaceship. I’m actually hoping to eat my words on this, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
