If Firefly ends up on cable, I'll just have to wait for the DVD's. (sigh) Oh, well, it is worth waiting for.

Whatever happens, I hope and pray that Firfefly gets picked up by something I can get. Not all FF fans live in the US and/or can get Sci-Fi or USA network.

That's one reason I voted for it to go back to network TV. Cable might be a bit better, in terms of the freedom the show might have, but I'd most likely never see the show. It's true that Space is running the series front to back over and over (yay!) and in order (gasp!), but I doubt they'd have the money to purchase all the eps. We got B5 up here until it went to TNN (couldn't get TNN at that point) and had to settle for the "best" 90 eps when Space got the rights here.

So, as one devoted fan, who STILL shakes his head whenever he finishes watching a FF ep in wonder at why such a quality show is cancelled and the crap stays, getting FF back out to the most folks is what I'd like to see.

As long as it doesn't turn FF into a pale imitation, like the reincarnation of WKRP.

If you can survive death, you can probably survive almost anything.

...When TNN changed to Spike TV, I went to their website and emphatically begged them to pick up Firefly, but did they? Noooooo..

I have an idea. If any of you people have been watching Spike TV latly just pay attention to their programming, it mixes all sorts of genres like Sci-Fi (Star Trek the Next Generation) with stuff that is completley origanal (The ultimatly cool and hilarious MXC). Firefly would be a wonderful add to their network and it would get a vast majority of people hooked to the show, with their succsess already with mixing such genres the show would probably slip in with no hitch, especialy when people saw the episode, Our Mrs. Renolds, hehe.
So basicaly what I am saying is that we should get as many people we know to get hooked on the show and start to flood the mail box at Spike with nothing about e-mails that urge them to pick up the show. Who knows if the rights that Fox has drop after the making of the movie and for some meracules reason comes onto Spike we could have our Firefly back. And don't forget to keep sending fanmail to Joss, the more the mail the closer to getting back Firefly!!!

Oh yeah, The theme song is AWESOME!
