looks like a conscious change
I saw this around and while I am probably not going to do the whole thing, I did have an answer for the first two questions from the June Something:
Day 1: What show or movie original cast would you like to see reunite for an update - where the intervening time has passed and we're getting a view of where they are now along with glimpses on how they got there?
THE MIDDLEMAN. I don't even know where I would envision them being so many years later, but I want at least one more adventure. Maybe MM retired and Wendy is the main Middleman now but she goes missing and he has to come out of retirement to find her? Maybe Lacey and Noser track him down because they know now what Wendy's job is but Ida is stonewalling them? But I also don't want Wendy to be a Macguffin in her own story, so maybe she's undercover? Idk idk but I would love to see them all again, but only if Javier Grillo-Marxuach is in charge.
Day 2: What show or movie would you like rebooted? Same premise and storylines, but all new actors, showrunners, writers, technology, and social awareness?
Firefly. Get rid of the confederate rhetoric and racism, make the cast mostly Chinese, fix all the weirdness around Inara and the Companions, and don't let Joss Whedon anywhere near it.

In Firefly, I did like what Companions were supposed to be, just that Whedon and co couldn't get their heads around that actually working in practice and instead constantly slut-shamed AND this was mostly backed up by the narrative. Ugh.

Exactly!

Yup! And also if Mal is supposed to be in love with Inara, maybe don't have him be an outright asshole to her all the time. It wasn't fun and bantery - it was mostly gross. And I loved Mal!
