I've had an interest in writing for television for a while myself. But I don't think I'd give up novels as a main pursuit. There's just so much more you can do on the page, I think. Sure, the film industry is getting more sophisticated in terms of special effects and just filming technique in general, and every so often a tv miniseries comes along that outdoes itself, but it just doesn't compare.
I still haven't seen Serenity. Perhaps it will have whatever it is that Firefly lacked for me. Perhaps it was just a matter of timing. What I did manage to see of the series I enjoyed, but I don't know what it was, after a while I just didn't bother watching, so I only caught a couple of episodes. Perhaps I should revisit them.

With Buffy, though, I just couldn't hang.
