I'm one of those fans who tends to get obsessed with every fandom I pass through. It's one of the reasons I wanna be a writer; I want to make my own fandom.
So, yeah. I still revisit Star Wars and Star Trek (like old friends that I've known all my life 
). Heck, I still revisit Andromeda from time-to-time.
My big ongoing fandoms are Transformers (more for concept than for any payoff we've yet had. Official TF fiction has a tradition of sucking out loud) and anime in general (InuYasha, Gundam Seed, and Stand-Alone Complex in particular).
Right now, I'm eagerly awaiting the return of Heroes, Dr. Who, Prison Break and the just-announced debut of Stargate Atlantis season 2 on Canadian TV (IT'S ABOUT FREAKIN' TIME!!!).

Right now there are no shows out there that can take the place of Firefly. Lost is probably the closest, but I rarely go to online forums about it nor do I own the DVD's. I like Heroes as well, but again not enough to become obsessed about it as I am with Firefly. Maybe one day in the future there will be a great show that will take it's place, but I don't see it happening for a while.

Heroes is okay. BSG is okay, although the individual eps can be kind of hit or miss IMO.
Veronica Mars is the best show on TV. It has great characters, sharp language,and amazing stories.
Much like Firefly, most everyone that watches it loves it. But, no one watches it.
Boom goes the dynamite.

There are so many "good" tv shows that I'm sure I will never get to them all. Everyone has television series that are their favorites. For me right now.
Lost
Smallville
and I will be seeing Six Feet Under with the Mrs. soon.
Although I like the first two and enjoy them quite a bit I could shoot a lot of holes in each. Especialy Smallville. With a couple thousand folks walking around with "Special" powers the town seems to take itself as just the next stop down the road. I like it though and as a fan forgive it's weaknesses. It is fun to watch.
I never get tired of FF. The stories and f/x are strong and although I'm sure it's posibile I can't really find anywhere to shoot holes in this GREAT SERIES.

Alias Smith and Jones, I haven't thought about that one in a while! Sweet! Brisco is The Man but I think Comet should have had a bigger part!

Heroes, BSG and Doctor Who. There seems to be a trend, here.
It’s unusual for me to be so involved in that many primetime shows, but they are all neatly grouped together on Friday night. Yay me.
Never got into Lost. It just seemed so pointless to me.
One show I am eagerly awaiting is the new season of Rome which is coming out on HBO on 14 January!! I think it’s going to detail the continuing adventures of Lucius Vorenus and Titus Pullo set against the backstory of Mark Antony and Cleopatra, the Second Triumvirate and the battle of Actium and the inauguration of Augustus Caesar and the impending of the Empire. I’m giddy!

Firefly/Serenity is the only fandom I've gotten involved with and I'm having a blast. I watch it in spurts and plan to see the BDM this evening.
I wanted to see it Saturday night on my brother's new 50 inch plasma HDTV but it isn't hooked up yet.
I really enjoy the Office a lot. Heroes and BSG are OK and so is Scrubs and How I Met Your Mother. Alison Hannigan and especially Neil Patrick Harris are hilarious.
Rescue Me was better the first two seasons. The character of Tommy was sort of like an even more damaged Mal, but in the last season didn't hit the mark. Tommy hasnt' learned one thing and if anything his "family" is even more disfunctional than ever.
It could have been an NYFD version of Firefly but it seems to be falling apart. I'll give it a bit of a chance when it returns next spring.

I've not really been able to watch anything with the same enthusiasm since I found Firefly. Nothing is as good as Firefly. Hands down the best show that ever was.
I don't feel like my involvement with the fandom is a waste or that I should turn my attention to a show that stands a chance. I love this fandom, and whether or not there's ever anymore Firefly/Serenity, I'll be here, be involved and be happy.
Doesn't mean I don't watch tv and don't enjoy some shows.
Current shows...
I love Heroes... riveted every time I watch it.
I like BSG immensely. A little grim, but always fascinating.
I like Jericho. Didn't watch it when it first started, but am catching up online.
I love SG-1 and Atlantis... I loved them before Firefly and wouldn't have found FF without them.
Old shows....
I've not seen Brisco County Jr. will have to make time for it. LOL
Alias Smith and Jones was fun.. I'd like to own it on DVD.
I still revisit the various Star Treks, exactly like old friends.
The last 3 Star Wars movies ruined the series for me... can't make myself watch any of them currently... but I used to love the old ones and likely will again.
I still like Farscape, although it's not Firefly!!
Shows to come...
Drive!!! Can't wait!!
