It was done by the director of Eternals and shot the exact same.

Chloé Zhao.

Another network can still pick up the show. It's not over yet unless other streaming services pass on it.
Yes another network/streaming could pick it up, but they will probably not bother if the writing is crap. Joss Whedon was the reason the shows existed. Without his humor brand on it, it pretty much fails.

Firefly is in the exact same boat but at least that will most likely be animation. If not, Joss Whedon better be behind the scenes helping with the writing or it faces the same problem.

Buffy might be the only time you'll get me to admit I genuinely liked a musical episode. Once More, with Feeling was amazing.

I'll still re-watch it from time to time. Disappointed we never got more from Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog.

It's done by the "right people" in this instance.

It stands a good chance of being picked up if the only issue is tone.

It was an easy pass for Hulu only because they had a specific vision for it-- other networks who didn't greenlight a pilot for this will be more open to a modern take on the show.
