Please, just leave this perfect thing alone.

Today, The Dot and Line asks itself a simple question: Is this version of Cowboy Bebop acceptable? Here are our answers.

‘Cowboy Bebop,‘ 1998

Yes.

‘Firefly,‘ 2002

Yes.

‘Cowboy Bebop,’ Release Date Unknown

No.

So, uh, Netflix: Don’t make Cowboy Bebop live action. Are we clear?
