I never saw the movie, never heard of the series. I remember people being excited when the movie came out. But it wasn't something I thought i would like and never saw it.

That being said, I subscribe to an internet TV channel. There are only a few channels, and I happened across a show called Firefly at ep 1 Season 1.

I sat and watched 4 hours of it (being late for work) and on the way home bought the DVD of the series. After ep 10 I bought the DVD, and now I'm all out of content. I'm actually sad.

I am scanning around and i fear there is no hope. Does anyone think there is a valid way to get the series started again? Or is there even a small rumor it might be coming back?

This is my last desperate attempt at hope.

There is talk of bringing Firefly back. Check the thread labelled "Sci-Fi Petition (Firefly)" to sign two different petitions. One is to have the Sci-Fi Channel pick up the series (last I checked it had less than 900 signatures, but that was about 8 hours ago). The other is to have some channel like HBO do Firefly (Last I checked, they had just under 10,600 signatures, but that too was several hours ago). We need everyone we can get to sign up. Have a good one!

Never give up hope!!!Never!!! We hold! We hold till the series comes back! There are some in the 'verse that will surrender and accept defeat. We call them "purblebellies" where I come from. A true Browncoat never gives up deep down inside, there's always at least a smoldering coal of hope mixed with a strong defiant attitude. Sign the petitions, spread the word to your friends and keep flyin! Email Universal execs and politely thank them for making the movie. Let them know that you're interested in seeing sequels if they make them.
It's amazing what a proper Serenity or Firefly bumper sticker can do to pique someone's curiosity. They act like a virus for people bored stuck in traffic.

Check out www.BrowncoatsRiseAgain.com for suggestions on what you can do to further the cause.

Remember, there are only two kinds of people: those who are Browncoats, and those who aren't Browncoats--yet.

You're proof that every single day, there are more people discovering Firefly. Every single day, we're getting closer to having everyone on this gorram rock. No power in the 'verse can stop us.

Hi, Omeganine, welcome to our shiny ship.
This show is addictive, huh? And wonderful!

The link to the petition thread is here:

http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=3&t=17379

There is also a letter writing campaign and postcard sending campaign. I'll try to post more about that in the next couple of days.

We'll get more of the 'verse if we keep holdin' and work hard and buy Serenity stuff.. that is what talks to TPTB. So we all have to keep telling those we love about Firefly and hopefully they will fall in love too.

Oh, and you need your browncoat!

*hands Omeganine a browncoat from her storeroom*

There you are, all geared up and ready to help us hold the line!

There will be folks along who will offer you food and strawberries and other goodies, most likely.
Post often, please, we love to talk.

ETA: Check out Cedrics CD in his signature!
It's a beaut!
