Joss Whedon is my hero.
My friend Shane and I have been ranting about the “New Order” for some time, in which content could be made directly for iTunes and distributed without the evil networks having to bless it (to avoid them screwing things up like Fox did with Firefly)… and now it seems like Joss is ready to make it happen. According to this blog post by Jeffrey McManus (which has been validated by comments from Joss himself), this distribution methods appears to be financially viable.
In other words, something like “Firefly Season 2” would be plausible in a “pay per view” via iTunes format.
The revolution will not be televised, but you will be able to download it from iTunes for $1.99 an episode. And the networks can suck it.
