Hey! Anyone know what's going on with the show? FOX moved Fastlane into Firefly's slot! I'm mad, I LOVE Firefly! Plus the doctor is hot. Let's face it, the cast is full of hot men. All are incredibly sexy. Anyway, if someone knows what the heck is happening with the show, please let me know.

You know as much as we do KittieCat. We are all waiting to see what happens. We are hoping that another Network will see Firefly for the great show it is and pick it up.

I emailed Chris Buchanan (CEO Mutant Enemy, Inc.) yesterday to inquire. Here is what he had to say:

Quote:

No, we haven't heard anything official from UPN yet. We are also waiting with fingers crossed.

Meanwhile, we are finishing posting the final three episodes that were ordered by Fox, no surprise, but they're really great.

Hopefully, we'll find a home for Serenity soon.

Best,
Buchanan

As you can see, they're waiting just like us. All I can say is to keep sending those postcards and get the word out as to how wonderful Firefly is.

Thanks, Haken! No news is good news! Forgive my ignorance, but would Chris Buchanan reply to just any humble Browncoat, or do you have special powers?

Sorry about that, didn't know I was stealing someone else's handle when I signed up. I go by the same at other Firefly sites.

The news that we are waiting to hear from UPN is good news. It means that they have not turned it down so far. (keeps fingers crossed)

Sounds pretty encouraging, I think. It doesn't take long to say "No", but saying "Yes" requires all sorts of negotiations. So hopefully there's a shot.

Well, looks we got our answer from UPN:

Start sending your postcards to the Sci-Fi channel. That is where they will be trying to sell FireFly to now. I got this info off the FireFly Support Page:
According to 20th Century Fox, the next place they're looking to sell Firefly is the The Sci-Fi Channel.

Please send postcards with your demographic information (age, sex, income, number of adults in your household) to the following addresses. Indicate why you enjoy Firefly and why it would be a good fit for The Sci-Fi Channel.

MARK STERN
SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT OF ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING
THE SCI FI CHANNEL
1230 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS
NEW YORK NY 10020-1513

So start sending! Let's keep FireFly alive!!!
