I worship Joss and all that He does, obviously. However, I feel with every fibre of my being that the show would not work without the right cast, and Joss already found them. Don't know if Joss would have a say in that, anyway. GILMORE GIRLS continued after it's creator(s) moved on. By the way, I also feel the same about BUFFY & ANGEL...although if Joss wanted to recast Buffy with Kristen Bell in order to do a big screen movie, wild horses wouldn't stop me!

Basically, I can imagine watching, but I can't imagine enjoying. It'd really be me desperately clinging to the idea of what it used to be and hoping one day it would change for the better. Also explains why I continue to watch GENERAL HOSPITAL, after swearing off of it for good only about 15 different times in the last 10 years.

it will kill it for me.
if the show to be continued then we need the original cast or at the very least 90% of 'em plus all other main characters like Badger, Niska and so on... played by the same actors.
however, if they continue the show from after the Serenity movie events then we have 2 less actors to worry 'bout 8:|

I think the show/movie had so much appeal to me because of the actors and the dialogs...

I would take full cast with no Joss. But only if Gwek replaces Joss

I think this thread brings up an interesting side question.

Personally, I wouldn't watch either. The actors are the only ones that I could ever see playing these characters and without Joss, the show would just be a bunch of fan-fic, which I avoid like the plague.

i think it would be a maybe because, i like to think that acters choose the roles they play based on their real life.

Someday the verse will spit in your soup but at least they gave you soup.

Oh boy, that's a tough question!

I think I would try it, but I guess I couldn't stand it.

The Cast is an important part of what makes the show so great. I mean, every single member is more than perfect!

Oh god, I'm starting to cry, so, there's your answer: I am loyal to my crew. I couldn't stand a new cast. But I'm sure Joss wouldn't be in if that were the condition.

But I would try to be open minded and give it a try. But I think I could never love Firefly with other actors (nearly) as much as I did love it with Nathan, Summer and Co.

Hey, I hear there's some fanfic out there that's not half bad. :)

I just started reading some of the fanfic because...well, I just wrote my first piece and wanted to know what else was out there. (I'll start posting it as soon as I proof it.)

I've been a Star Trek fan from the first, been through the whole get-it-back-on-the-air thing that we're going through now with Firefly. And guess what? In 1976 there was a little book put out by Bantam called "Star Trek: The New Voyages" which was a collection of some of the best stories from years of fanfic (with a foreward by Roddenberry and story intros by the cast). Published after the James Blish novelizations of the original episodes and his one original Trek novel, it basically started a whole empire of original fiction set in that world. Let's hope our fanfic takes the same route eventually!
