Create a TV Show: Badger's Planet!
Badger’s Planet (a Firefly spinoff)
Badger Booker (Mark Sheppard), onetime nemesis of Malcolm Reynolds and the Serenity crew, has had a lucky strike. An uncle he never knew has died and left him a substantial amount of money and a somewhat down-at-the-heels hotel/casino/nightclub in a seaside city on Greenleaf, home planet to the moon where Badger was raised.
Judging that Persephone had become a little risky for a businessman such as himself, Badger tips his bowler and hies off with some of his crew to see what fortune could be made on a tropical planet that was just developing a thriving industry-bordering on outright piracy-in black-market drugs borne from the plant life that grew so richly in the rain forest.
And what do you know? He's making a go of it. Join us for the humor, intrigue, larceny-and even romance-that thrive in the neon lights, bubbly drinks, and hectic management of….Badger’s Planet!
Also starring:
Mischa Collins as the local Alliance Administrator, Jack King, monitoring Badger’s gambling operation and occasionally casting a wary eye at the burgeoning black-market plant and drug trade. Despite his adversarial role, he and Badger are actually becoming friends, often sharing a late-night drink and waxing philosophical over the ups and downs of life.
Amy Acker as Rue Lette, nightclub maitre d’ and the most outspoken of the holographic staff corps who work as entertainers, wait staff, and other personal service providers. Her constant attempts to organize the holo-crew and fight against the discrimination they face, create problems for Badger, but he generally treats them as well as he does the human staff.
John Cho as Chip Underlay, card dealer and eager up-and-comer, who may or may not be involved in nefarious activities outside the casino. Despite his annoyance at Chip’s brash confidence, Badger has somewhat taken him under his wing, though he doesn’t trust him 100%.
