Millions of people out there fervently believe and are waiting for the second coming of Jesus Christ.

I fervently believe and am waiting for the second coming of The 'Verse.

If we can't have the BDHs then whatever characters Joss comes up with be equally adored/reviled and the actors who portray them will be equally wonderful. Joss's standards and passion demand nothing less.

nice cover fire
Oh, and I also have a black belt in Smackdown Fu

As far as sci-fi is concerned "Serenity" and
"Firefly" raise the bar.

Let us take what we have and build upon it but not wish for the glory days of old. Serenity may never sail again but the frission is still there.

I think that Firefly/Serenity are good at 14 episodes and one great movie. Don't try to spoil things with a desire for more.





And if we thought that way when Firefly was canceled then there would have never been a Serenity. So you're probably already understanding my point here.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

My first post on here ,in answer to the call to give it up.
No not yet,.............and not by a long way.
I discovered the verse but two months ago,
I've only started handing out the TV series,none of my mates have even heard of Firefly or Serenity.

Hold fast brown coats ,the reinforcements are coming,the word is spreading every day.
Do not doubt that what we have seen is something special,it just has to reach a wider audience.

I'm a brown coat ....I'm a believer ......Serinity WILL fly again.

Here 'til the very end, and i dont see an end anytime soon!

Fight on Browncoats!

Hell, the whole basis of the show is to never give up! What a great lesson for a cancelled show with obsessive fans eh?

Firefly will probably never be remade...but remember that the show Family Guy was also canceled by Fox only to come back and recieve a higher viewing rate then the Simpsons. I don't think firefly can do this...but you never know if the Sci-Fi Channel will decide to stop making their crappy movies and put the money to making more Firefly. I doubt that will happen.

Firefly is probably dead...but the idea will start a revolution in the creation of space series. The show gave a more western lawless frountere idea to space travel, something Star Wars and Star Trek never did. More space series will have adventures in the red neck planets of the universe because of Firefly. Hopefully the ideals of main characters being shot anywere form 3 to 4 times an epp will live on too. Firefly was the first show where the main characters were shot in every epp.

Firefly was and forever will be the only Space Western that isn't afraid to have a witch burning!

Eh, they're not exactly getting ready to retire either. The oldest cast member - not counting Ron Glass, whose character is now dead - is Adam, and he's 43.

And give up on the finest show in this crap-heel 'verse, when it needs support like never before? Not gonna happen.

*cough* without that desire there wouldn't have been a movie in the first place *cough* ...




Amen to that. And without the movie there wouldn't be all of the new fans like me who now desire a sequel and are helping to spread that desire a little more.

Serenity and Firefly DVDs are selling quite well, well enough for a sequel, as in we WILL get our sequel, and then another sequel, and then a continuation of the show.

Our chances arren't as bad as people try to make out.
