Transcript below the cut:

Fan: "Hi"

Alan: "Hello"

Fan: "So, you do so many shows, animated and real life,"

Alan: Right, right

Fan: "What's your favorite animated character and then your favorite live action character you've done?"

Alan: "My favorite animated character is King Candy, because he was such a good character. He starts out friendly you think, he's very nice and he, ya know, he throws candy at you. And uh... you kinda get that he's a bad guy but you don't know how bad until about halfway through the movie and then he's-- he's Turbo, and he's the worst thing ever, and then he turns into a bug and becomes even worse. He tries to beat a cute little girl with candy stuck in her hair with a car antenna. And then-- and then he wants to kill 'em all, he's the worst. Oh, I love it. Uh, so he's great, um, and he kinda does an Ed Wynn voice [unintelligible King Candy noises] um, and that was my first role for Disney so it really kinda started my whole relationship with them."

Alan: "Uh, and then, I have... I like Wash, because Wash in Serenity-- er I mean Firefly, he... he's the closest character to me. Ya know, I play so many different roles that are very, very different, which is great and fun, but I rarely get to play characters like myself, and that was, especially back then, a smartass. Uh, just a guy-- I mean I didn't fly spaceships, I'll say that. But other than that, um, ya know just wants to-- everybody else will be like "let's-- we can shoot 'em this way or we can blow 'em up this way, we can do this", and I'll be like "why don't we run?" I mean, it seems like a good option, no one has to die, and we leave. How about that? Let's just leave. Yeah, run. And that seems to be my choice."

Firefly - It's one of my favorite shows of all time, so much so, I named my blog after it.

A Firefly revival is being developed as an animated series.

Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Gina Torres, Jewel Staite, Morena Baccarin, Sean Maher, Summer Glau, and Adam Baldwin are expected to reprise their roles.

The animated reboot is being developed through Fillion’s production banner Collision33 in partnership with 20th Television Animation, which controls the underlying rights to the franchise.

Married writing-producing team Marc Guggenheim (DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Arrow) and Tara Butters (Agent Carter, Reaper) are attached to serve as showrunners, and a script has been completed. Joss Whedon, who created the original series, is not involved in the animated project. During today’s panel, Fillion confirmed Whedon has given the series his blessing.

The proposed series is set in the timeline between the original 2002 television run and its 2005 feature film continuation, Serenity, expanding the universe while preserving continuity with the established lore. Early concept art has been developed in collaboration with the Oscar and Emmy-award-winning animation studio ShadowMachine, which can be found below. The fully assembled package is expected to be taken out to buyers shortly.

Inara Serra (Firefly)

If Inara Serra (Firefly) was in Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire, which Great House of Westeros would they be part of or at least the most affiliated with?

House Targaryen

House Stark

House Lannister

House Baratheon

House Greyjoy

House Tully

House Arryn

House Martell

House Tyrell

Voting ended onJun 24, 2025

(OP note: I’m voting Martell since Inara gives me strong Ellaria Sand vibes)

Ways to approach the poll if the character isn’t a royal:

If you think they’d be from a smaller house, go with the Great House that that smaller house is sworn to (ex: House Manderly —> vote Stark)

They don’t have to be a nobleperson, they can be someone working for the house or being ruled by them. Roles could be a sworn-sword, a septa, a butcher, a blacksmith, or even a lowly peasant.

You can consider the region itself. For example, if you feel the character would be from Dorne, pick House Martell.

You can consider the personality of the character. For example, if your character is all about honor, then consider either House Arryn or House Stark.

Last, but not least, be creative with it! For example, there was a comment I read that the character who was the subject of the poll would be pulling a Littlefinger, so they went with either Lannister or Tyrell as that would be that character’s target houses.
