It's from the scipt to 'Dead or Alive', which was never filmed. You can find the draft script on this site, here:

I just hope if it does come back to series, it gets itself situatedo on the Sci-Fi Channel or a network other than FOX.

Hey, Raleigh's a nice easy drive for me!

I don't want to get too excited about this possibility, because it sounds more like they don't want to rule out a return to series rather than that they are intent on doing one. Nevertheless, some hope is a lot better than no hope.

Universal, which is making the movie, is part of a conglomerate that includes NBC, USA, and Sci-Fi, so there are definitely some outlets that might like a new Firefly tv show.

The theatre is in Raleigh, NC. . .the capital city. It's near Downtown, near hotels, resturants and a large mall. I wonder what sort of response would be recieved from Browncoats wanting to host a massive premiere night gala there?



That's certainly close enough for me to make the trip. I'm in the DC Area. I think it would be very cool!

As much as I'd like to just say, "That's damn shiny," I will believe it when I see it. Also, I hope that, if "Firefly" returns, they go to a different network, like UPN or SciFi. UPN could use the ratings boost, and it would beat the hell out of anything else on that woebegotten network. However, if it were on SciFi, at least they would not be as inclined to kill it. And, if the new BSG series is also on SciFi, "Super Shiny!"

I hate to reply to myself because that seems so stoopid, but I just saw the post on the SciFi Battlestar Galactica site that it got greenlit for the new series! Maybe Firefly can restart on SciFi on the same night or something. Excellent!
