Sci-fi rarely advertises shows that aren't SF originals or movies. I don't remember any ads for Andromeda (which Firefly is replacing in that slot), for example.

But hopefully it will get at least a few ads during next weeks premieres.

Isn't SciFi under the same big umbrella as NBC and Universal ? NBC ran BSG on Sat night, and then a preview of BSG. So, it seems like as part of the 'versal family, SciFi could do a BIT of advertising. Or maybe they think merely running Firefly is promotion enough. For which, I AM grateful..of course.

I saw an ad on the season opener of bat-gat. Is this new stuff or are they just gonna play reruns? it'd be a short run.

Ok Here we go, firefly fans!!! I don't know if this posts or if it just replys(if it doesn't post please post it for me). Sci-fi is bring ing the reruns back to boost the movie. Go see the movie lots of times fans. Email, write and generally reek havoc to get hi series abck. They got the whole cast back for the movie and NONE of them have anything better than this vehicle, so I'd say they are ready as well. Scream, holler, write, call, email,blog and generally bring attention to one of the best shows, sci-fi or not, that I have ever seen. Someone tells ya to stop like last time don't listen. If they tell ya there is no hope. That's because we are causin a problem and they want us to shut up, don't. I want to see this series back in action. It won't be the first time it's happened by a long shot. Take me where I cannot stand YEEHA!!!! it might actually happen
