How much? Let me give a couple takes on this.

First, assume new episodes are made in a direct-to-DVD format, or something along those lines. I'd have no problem with a price tag of $15/show. Multiply that by as many shows as could be made per year, and that'd be my annual pledge -- 300-400 bucks or so.

However, let's consider a different scenario. If there were an investment company whose funds went into producing more episodes (and paying dividends to investors from any profits from the sale/distribution of those episodes), I would be willing to go deep. I'd buy at least $10,000 worth of shares in that company, as long as the funds would be returned if the production deal fell through.

It would be a risky investment, of course, since Firefly hasn't exactly been a windfall profit maker so far. But I'd take that risk.

We'll pledge $100...You might look into something with Time Warner. They are getting ready to offer a lot of their old TV shows for download online. Perhaps a possibility of some new shows, with an avid fan base would appeal to them as well.

I'll send the suggestion up to them, with a link to this site, so they can see the interest.

$100 at least for the next series.

I'm a student working a crappy part-time job, so I'll commit to only $100 at the moment. But if this does happen (please powers-that-be!!!) then by the time subsequent series are planned I'll hopefully be a little more well-off and able to throw more money at this shiny venture!

This poor Scottish student would happily pay $100 of your US dollars for another season to be made, and then I'd buy the DVDs and promote them to friends.

I would gladly give $100.00 per season!

But, I would also redo my budget and attempt to do more if this becomes a reality.

Say.... $700.00 a year. I have no car payment right now, and don't expect one for a couple of years, so I could go $700.00.

Hellz, yeah! $50, at least! My boyfriend sez he'd pitch in 50, too, so...

$100 total!

Dammit, Mal! I forgot my line!

I'm back! I'm pledging another $100, which brings me to $200! I'll probably go higher, too! Insanity!
