Yeah, the actors' contract officially expire today, and seeing as how there's no news after Hulu,  Apparently there's a Harmontown thread, see y'all in there.

Maybe I don't understand how TV contracts work, but if the contracts expire today, wouldn't they need to be renegotiated regardless of when the show is picked back up? What difference does it make if the show was picked back up yesterday or tomorrow?

No point in holding out for something that probably won't happen and not making any money.

I saw Firefly because people wouldn't shut up about it. It was ok. Better than average sci-fi series and the movie was good. However I will never tell anyone to watch only because I assume some fan of the show has already told them 12 times. Also, anyone think its odd that they made a documentary about the fan support creating a movie? I will however recommend Community because I haven't heard super rabid fans talk non-stop about it.

The Firefly fandom is one of the most narcissistic and entitled ones out there, even compared to the other terrible personality substitute fandoms. Firefly fans pitched a fit when Fox C&D'd people who were making bootlegs of official Firefly merchandise because in the fans' eyes it was their show and they had just as much of a right to profit off of it.

computer parts posted:I just hope this doesn't become the new Firefly. It's probably closer to Arrested Development than Firefly. Quirky sense of humor, poorly handled by its Network, rabid fanbase getting on everyone's nerves calling it the best TV show ever made, a decline in quality by its third season, eventual cancellation. Maybe in a few years Hulu will make a season 6 where none of the main characters interact with one another.

I haven't read the contracts, but I'm assuming that if NBC decided to go through with season 6 before the deadline, the actors would have been forced to either return or negotiate the terms of their departure. After the deadline, they have no such obligation. Irish Joe fucked around with this message at 20:42 on Jun 30, 2014 |

OldSenileGuy posted:I don't even want it back at this point. I know the finale we got was underwhelming, but I get the sense that Dan and the whole cast have moved on and let it go. I don't want it back if they're all gonna be forced to do it and half-rear end it. ...having said that, Well, I never thought this would happen. I guess if Community was gonna come back, this was the best way it could happen. Yahoo is probably gonna give Dan complete creative control, and the new format should allow him to experiment with some different stuff, which is what he does best. But the best part of all is that thanks to the Six Seasons meme, this is pretty much guaranteed to be the last season. I almost wish Yahoo would greenlight a movie as well. That way there doesn't have to be another "this is the series finale but it's open ended enough that there can still be a movie" ending. Plan this poo poo out, and then end it Dan.

Hahaha holy poo poo. If there ever is a movie I hope its a parody of TV movies like when the Harlem Globetrotters go to Gilligan's island or Saved By the Bell goes to Hawaii.
