The Firefly marathon is scheduled to start at 10 A.M. (EST) with "Serenity Part 1" and continue through to "Out of Gas" airing at 6 P.M as the final episode of the marathon.
Here's a link to Sci-Fi's online schedule for March 10th:

Some cable and satellite companies provide different feeds to their customers. Even though I live on the west coast, I often get the east coast feed, so it's best to always double check the air times because sometimes there's a 3 hour difference!
As far as I know, FOX still had time left on their rights to broadcast Firefly. However, Universal was able to arrange a deal in order to broadcast Firefly on their Sci-Fi Channel network. I don't know how long the deal is good for, but we need to make the most of the times when Firefly is on the air. It's a great opportunity to bring in new fans and show that there's an audience that still wants very much to see Firefly.
Good ratings for this marathon will help so much in showing that Firefly is worth relighting!

"As long as I was able to service the characters with integrity and had enough money so that I wasn't hampered, then I would love to return Serenity to TV. I love that universe; it continues and those characters live on. There could be a series, there could be a miniseries, there could be all sorts of things. I'm not ruling anything out. I'll let it simmer for a while and see if anyone calls."

Making the Firefly Marathon a success helps add fuel to the fire-fly. Since Joss is keeping the door open to return Firefly to television, let's do what we can to back that up.
Anyone up for some guerilla marketing?

Keepin' the thread going..
This is some fantastic work 11THHOUR.. absolutely fantastic. I had put together some real quick flyers and they're posted on one of these threads, but they don't even compare to yours. Fantastic artwork! But, you already know that!
I'm digging the smaller sizes for sure and printing them off..

Thanks very much for the kind words... and I'm so glad to hear that you'll be making use of the mini posters!
Firefly/Serenity has the coolest fans, with so much passion for the 'verse. The posters are there for the fans to use, ready to go so there's always handy tools available when we're channeling our passion to guerilla marketing.
Have a great time spreadin' the word to them as needs it told... guerilla marketing really is a blast.

A University Campus is an excellent place to guerilla marketing. Thanks so much for pitching in!
Bit by bit, this all makes a difference...

Well, the marathon's over, and heck, I don't even have that channel over here, but I was just thinking of doing some guerrilla marketing myself.
-------------------------------------------
EDIT: Um, I'm really stupid. The marathon hasn't even aired yet, sorry! I lost track of the day, haha, I've been home sick. Sorry :P
Anyway, back to the post:
-------------------------------------------
Maybe we could turn something like this into a big global Browncoat project? (Although I'd be amazed if there isn't something like that already happening).
Where did you get the artwork for the posters? They look wonderful!
