I have to say that I'm glad. I think season 7 has been great so far and that this way the show will very likely be going out on a high. Admittedly there're going to be some very intriguing loose ends to tie up but I think that The whole "first" thing is providing a superb way to make this once classic show live up to it's original promise.
Hopefully the spin off show will have more luck than Whedon's "Firefly"
