Also, I'm in this for the long haul- remember, it took original Trek over 10 years in syndication Hell before they made the first movie, and a while longer before TNG.
Gonna hang on, wait around, she'll come 'round again.
All of the petitions, fanfics, books, charity showings, fattening of Fox and Universal, cons, fan gatherings will keep the name in folks' minds
Sooner or later ( probably later ) something will click in some studio guy's mind , and he'll say, " OK, let's try it again."

Oh excuse me im very sorry, not giving you credit for doing things over a year ago. How is that showing me you haven't given up? Oh but sorry I don't want to be a complainer so i'll give up sounds like the easy thing to due and i won't be negative. Sounds like a win win situation except Firefly isn't on. thanks milk, i'm negative.

But please don't join a group six years later, and ignore the efforts of everyone involved. I'll once again be at the summer showing of Serenity. I'll buy every product I can to show product strength. I'll watch reruns on Sci-fi, on UniversalHD. I'll sign whatever petition is lately going to come about. I'll do whatever I can legally to get another movie, mini-series, show, puppet show, saturday morning cartoon, whatever, back on. Maybe if you had been with us six years ago, or anywhere in between, like for example, gone to see Serenity at the theater five times, then maybe we'd have more now. Welcome on board, stop complaining, and think of something positive.

Sweetie, welcome to the 'Verse, but please do be respectful of those who have done so much for us! You wouldn't have found it at all had they not, nor would I. I never heard of Firefly until after the Big Damn Movie came out on DVD. Had there been no fans, there would have been no Firefly DVDs, there would have been no movie.
Have you read the comics? Have you read all the scripts (including the unaired one)? Then you still have new wonders to explore.
Study up on the legalities. See what has been done before so you won't wear yourself out trying old strategies. Come up with something new and tell us about it and we'll try it.
People come in here every few months and rant just like you. It gets a little wearying. Just calm down, make friends, don your virtual Browncoat, learn some choice Chinese phrases to throw into conversations, and drink some mudder's milk. And play nice.

Internet petitions don't work, they just don't.
And I'm sorry, but to me, saying that we've given up is like a slap in the face. I have purchased at least ten copies of the series to give out, and about twenty-five copies of the Collectors Edition to give out.
So, yeah. I take offense to the fact that you believe that we've given up, and to be honest you're starting to sound a little troll-ish.

Are we talking about the actors jobs? Or something else.
Cause like Nathan will be on Desperate Housewives tonight (USA) . This is a top 20 TV show and the man hasn't even taken his shirt off yet. Movie Trucker just premiered at a NY Film Festival.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0277213/nowshowing
Terminator has been picked up for another season.
Stargate: Atlantis has been picked up for another season.
Stargate: The Ark of Truth (Straight to DVD) movie sold at least 7 million dollars worth of DVDs in the USA only. Morena played the big bad villian. Remember Joss talked about Serenity Straight to DVD being a possibility.
I think Chuck was renewed with Adam Baldwin.
Joss Whedon's Doctor Horrible Sing-Along Blog with Nathan Fillion as Captain Hammer, Neil Patrick Harris as Doctor Horrible and Felicia Day as Penny will hit the internet as early as late May or as late as July.

The more people see of our Big Darn Heroes work, the more they want to see of our Big Darn Heroes work...which leads them back to Firefly/Serenity.
As for what Firefly/Serenity fans are doing, check out the Firefly and Serenity Guerilla Marketing forum: http://www.fireflyfans.net/threadlist.asp?b=20
Also check out http://www.cantstoptheserenity.com/
for what fans are doing with Universal's help and financial support.
Over $160,000 Raised For Equality Now Since 2006.
2008's goal is to raise $150,000 with 55 cities participating.
No giving up here. Not possible. Joss Whedon and the actors want to do more Firefly/Serenity with actors. They love Firefly/Serenity more than we do...really.

I'm thinking Troll as well. Apologies if I'm wrong, but to join a board and start 'having a go' like this definitely has that distinctive odour about it.
Welcome if you're a genuine fan.
Go back to the slime pit if you're a troll.
Coming from someone who watched the series for free I think the first positive action you should do is to go and buy the box set and the movie, at least one copy of each for yourself.
Tell others about it as well. Convert them. Get them to buy the box set and movie as well.
People here haven't 'given up'. The fact that this board is still going strong (maybe stronger), the Uni board is there, Firefly will be released in HD in the future, the comics continue, the screenings still occur every year, the conventions still on....etc etc etc.

We are all Firefly fans. No we haven't given up and we leap at any teeny tiny rumor of a possible 'resurrection.' I didn't know about the series until AFTER I'd seen Serenity on cable - now every day, I hope; I vote for Firefly on the Best TV Show poll - it may not do a damn thing; but it makes feel like I am doing 'something.' I've also bought many copies of the series and the film and given them as gifts to friends and family. I have all the 'companion' books and the comics; I have never been much into costuming, but I am now part of the 76th Independent Battalion and I've marched in a parade at Dragon*Con last year; I have never been so obsessed by a freaking television show! So, no - haven't 'just given up' - never will - can't.

Not all of us are guys you know. You can clearly tell from my name...whoops...you can't...

Please check out the Firefly and Serenity Guerilla Marketing I mentioned.
See if there is a Serenity Charity Screening near you http://www.cantstoptheserenity.com/ You can even arrange one "2008 - Want to hold a screening? Start here " http://www.cantstoptheserenity.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=89
or "Want to participate but" http://www.cantstoptheserenity.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=90
We spread the love of Firefly/Serenity wherever we can. We support the actors and Joss. We buy Official Firefly/Serenity merchandise. We donate DVDs to libraries and firefighters and troops and the Red Cross and wherever else we can. We support charities. We watch Firefly and Serenity on cable. We go to regular Serenity Screenings. We go to Serenity Charity Screenings. I know I'm forgetting some things.
