I just would much prefer to see a new set of stories start from a clean slate of building off of where we were left hanging. I'm just not that interested in what happened in between episodes.
Besides, doing stuff in-between episodes means there can't be anything of what I'd like to see most, which is further developing character relationships from where they were at the end of the show. The writer inevitably has to be hamstrung into making sure that at the end of the story he isn't jumping the gun on matters that's going to screw up the credibility of an actual episode that takes place later, or worse still he doesn't have any awareness of the sequence of the episodes and writes a story that couldn't possibly be reconciled to the events in-between (plus there's the fact that in an in-between story, there's not much in the way of suspense to grip me since I know where everything is supposed to be at which point).
That's just my take. I think frankly going this route saps whatever enthusiasm I might have had for this, because it means I'm not going to see a story in an official publication I can latch onto.
Oh, and thanks Pegasus4 for the kind word on the VS.
