Still Not Over Firefly’s Cancellation? Comic Con Has a Panel for You!
It’s official, and we now have details! As previously reported, Browncoats everywhere can celebrate (while I roll my eyes) at San Diego Comic Con International this year for the 10 year anniversary panel of the one-season wonder Firefly panel. Panelists will include your beloved Captain Nathan Fillion, Joss Whedon, Alan Tudyk, Adam Baldwin, Sean Maher, Michael Fairman and many more! The panel will be held Friday, July 13, at 12:30 PM, and is brought you by SCIENCE (the channel, not the school subject).
Although not much of a fan of the show myself. if Gina Torres makes an appearance then I may suffer the Whedonites and try to find my way in. I love her and her work prior to Firefly and Serenity, and would love to hear what she’s currently doing.
SCIENCE will also be hosting other panels, including one for Dark Matters: Twisted But True and one about Time Travel (F’ yeah!) from the podcast Stuff You Should Know.:
TIME TRAVEL: SCIENCE FACT OR SCIENCE FICTION? STUFF YOU SHOULD KNOW WITH JOSH & CHUCK, Thursday, 7/12/12, 4:00 p.m.–5:00 p.m.
SCIENCE presents Josh Clark and Chuck Bryant, hosts of the Top 10 iTunes podcast STUFF YOU SHOULD KNOW, as they lead a discussion about time travel with some very special celebrity guests for a live from Comic-Con taping of their podcast. Josh and Chuck’s loyal fan following, chemistry and insatiable curiosity are core to the launch of SCIENCE’s upcoming series Stuff You Should Know, as the two pioneer the way for what likely will be more introductions of talent discovered and incubated online finding a place on new platforms. Join Josh and Chuck and the SCIENCE team at Comic-Con for an exclusive sneak-peek of Stuff You Should Know, as well as limited edition Comic-Con exclusive giveaways from SCIENCE.
FIREFLY 10-YEAR ANNIVERSARY, Friday 7/13/12, 12:30 p.m.–1:30 p.m.
It has been 10 years since the crew of Serenity took flight in Joss Whedon’s short-lived but now revered series, Firefly. SCIENCE will reconvene, for the first time in a decade, Captain Mal Reynolds and the crew from the ship, calling all Browncoats to unite at the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con. The cast ofFIREFLY will talk about the past, present and future of Firefly, 10 years after its debut. SHINY.
DARK MATTERS, Friday, 7/13/12, 7:15 p.m.–8:15 p.m.,
This summer, SCIENCE returns to the laboratory to unearth history’s most sinister tales with the second season of the breakout series Dark Matters: Twisted But True. Join USA Today’s Brian Truitt; John Noble; Executive Producer Rocky Collins; and science historian Michael Stevens as we take a closer look at the forbidden research records on the most shocking scientific studies ever executed. From gruesome lobotomy experiments, to controversial CIA studies, to spine-chilling accounts of live human transplants, the all-new season shows that science fact can be stranger, and even more entertaining, than science fiction. The six world premiere episodes take audiences inside a real-life Twilight Zone, where shocking CGI re-creations illustrate unforgettable tales of genius gone horribly awry. DDark Matters: Twisted But True premieres Saturday, July 14, at 10:00 PM (ET/PT).
