It could happen. A bounty hunter like that, out on the fringe, would have to be intimate with his ship. He could have some kind of homing device on his suit, that even if River did program the ship to go away, after a certain amount of time, (or withthe push of a button on his suit) it would lock onto his signal and pick him up. He could just be drifting out there, and not remember he has that option, and then all of a sudden, it hits him. I mean, he was crazy, but Josh never said he was stupid.

Speaking of series two stories hows about Jayne and Simon? River as the ship.
Things could get messy. Watch as Jayne desperately
tries to restrain himself from blamming a few holes in Simon.(with Vera of course.) If he lays a finger (or a swiss-army knife)on him then River will kill Jayne with her mind. Or some form of kitchen utensil...seeing as she is the ship she can do anything.
As for the others they can have cameos now and again (except of course the dead ones including Wash *sob* and Book *another sob* dear god why!!! sorry...i'm still in mourning...) or they can have hilarious spin-off series' like kaylee taking on Reavers with strawberries her funky parasol. And Zoe and Mal fighting yet another war.
Objects in space- Simon: I'm a doctor and my sister is a ship. We had a strange childhood...

With the quote above referring to the possibility of Jubal Early surviving beyond the episode "Objects in Space," I don't think it takes a stretch at all.
At the very end where he says "Well...Here I am..." I don't think he is just being Jubal Early-crazy, he is actually talking to the auto-pilot on his ship. A guy alone on a space ship, especially one who's plans include extra-vehicle activities would certainly have a back-up plan if he got stranded.
But with the element of surprise gone and the need to undo all River's button pushing, Early withdraws to come up with new plan.
As far as a season two episode I'd like to see ... I really would like to see Zoe, tell the flashback story of how she saved Mal from a caper-gone-bad, which ended up netting them the cashy-money Mal used to buy Serenity.

You know, I don't think that the message sent out about Miranda was enough to start a war. Heck, if it was, we'd never stop being at war in real life. And of course Zoe is pregnant. I'd say she's probably a bit hormonal too, adding another level of comedy to the stuff we miss because Wash is gone. Inara is a bit more willing to persue a relationship with Mal, but Mal is still Mal. I think it would totally screw things up if they actually got together (Anybody notice what happened when Lois and Clark got married? The series was basically over at that point.). But we will see them kiss or maybe more. They'll bounce back and forth. I think River will be a great pilot, and also a great gun hand. If I know Jayne, he will be a little twitterpated by it. Don't know if River would ever consider dating the man-ape gone wrong though. She'll also help to get the ship into order, because Simon and Kaylee are going to be a bit preoccupied for a while. Those are the things that I would say are definite in my opinion. Now some real speculation. I think that the Operative is part of a line of clones, one that Shepherd Book belonged to.

I've come to this conclusion... Inara must die.

That's because Lois and Clark were the entire point of that series.
Firefly has seven characters and a very complex 'verse with many issues to content with. Mal and Inara getting (and staying) together wouldn't kill that in any way.

Here is my spin.
Miranda does not cause enough trouble initially to generate a war of succession. However, we know that River was in the presense of "Key Members of Parliment" so the directions and information known to her are only limited by a writers imagination.
As Joss is into the civil war, and I hate to make it comprable to Star Wars, but everybody loves intergalactic civil war.
Time for Mal to stop running for good. General Mal. Inara dies in the bed of some Alliance high up. Things get real dark. Jayne goes off the deep end. River is still River. Zoe is still Zoe but preggers...sure why the hell not. Simon (who can't get past the reavers) likes morphine and his relationship replaces the wash and zoe relationship. Need new spiritual guidance...bring in Ron Pearlman (he is in everything anyways)
Good way to tie alot of the old characters back into the mix.
Or, Reavers kill Inara in typical Reaver fashion, Mal and the crew go off the deep end, loadout the ship for war, hunt the reavers down while having wacky adventures with witty dialogue

I actually got that idea from another thread somewhere. Someone said that the Operative would be coming back as a shepherd according to Joss Whedon. The same thread suggested that Shepherd Book was a clone.
Why is everyone so hungry for war anyway?

Oh for Serenity's sake, everybody just quit thinking about this!! HE'S OLD ENOUGH TO BE HER FATHER!
...
Okay, I've calmed down now.

Hmmm. I'd like to see that thread, because I also suggested that the Op will be a Shepherd (Shepherd Magazine, anyone?) but I certainly never heard it from Joss Whedon. It's my own maniacal musing.
