River & River – the sci-fi crossover series the world needs to see

Close to a month ago, I decided to listen to my many anglophilic friend and take on the new generation of Doctor Who, starting with the Christopher Eccleston series.

When Firefly week was officially scheduled a few days later, I knew I had to bring  my vision to the world. Once I got home, I frantically caught up with  the last season and a half and started brainstorming…
