You likely would also enjoy Done The Impossible DVD, a documentary.
Come Juneish we watch Serenity in Cinemas during Can't Stop The Serenity screenings.
Being a recent convert myself (though no one ever offered me a virtual browncoat that I can remember *sniff*) I would LOVE to see Serenity on the BIG SCREEN. Where can I find a list of showings in my area?
On a quick note . . . some of you may remember my trials with getting my wife hooked on Firefly. Just this weekend she was heading off to work and asked, "Could you please hand me my brown coat?" I just smiled and chuckled as I handed it to her. I then had to explain . . . again . . . the whole Browncoat thing.
Absolutely, Nathan is fantastic in Castle. He's a riot to watch. The scene of playing laser tag with his daughter then inviting Beckett into his appartment was priceless. Adam Baldwin is great in Chuck. I don't watch TSCC, just because, and I just haven't been able to get into Dollhouse. Something's missing there.
At any rate, welcome aboard Totally!

Thanks Peacekeeper, it's sort of hard to keep up with all the new Browncoats around here. I'm sorry if I missed anyone. *throws open the doors to the closet*
RIPWash, it took me a while to get into Dollhouse, but the last 3 episodes have been pretty good, and last week's was written by Jane Eppenson, who penned Shindig, along with Jed Whedon and Marrrissa Tauncheron, his fiance and co-writer on Dr. Horrible. Alan Tudyk should be on this Friday.
And I won't miss an episode of Castle if I can help it. There's even a bit of Castle fan fic appearing on www.fanfiction.net and www.livejournal.com.

Joss hasn't read an obituary yet, so he may yet have some plans for the 'verse. As recently as weeks ago he has expressed his continued interest if "suits with money" approach him with funding, and the entire Firefly crew has expressed that they would sign on a project if Joss gets Firefly off the ground again (Nathan Fillion most vocally).
I've read that the actors would be keen. I would hope that also applies to the Photography/Camera people, music and writers etc as well. They all see to play a role in making this show great, at least to me.
I do wish that Joss would take a more proactive approach though. I'm not sure anyone is going to walk up to him with Money on the hope of him pulling it together. On the other hand I can see them doing it in response to a exciting and creditable pitch.
And thanks to all the nice comments in this my moment of misery.

Oops, I hadn't thought to ask for the keys as I've been liberally passing them out to new crew! NC must have left the closet open, that's it, yep!

We've done our best over the years to convince the Powers That Be to fund a sequel or another series. Alas we have not been successful.
But we all continue to do our part in some small way to keep hope alive.
I agree with what's been suggested here -- comics, Done the Impossible, new shows with our Big Damn Heroes.
You could also check out the podcasts that are dedicated to the Firefly 'verse. There are plenty of companion books. There are ways to stay occupied while we wait for our miracle.
And other than a few hot-heads, I think you'll find this is a really friendly community.

Your coat is kinda brownish.
Hey "Toats McGoats"
Join the rest of us crying in our Mudder's Milk.
Totally Devastated is absolutely right, we're all in the same boat, so welcome.
As you will see when you read on, there are many who would love to have more of our BDH. So pass on the story to others less fortunate (those who haven't seen FF/Serenity) and send your thanks to Universal and Fox for giving us what little we got.
The more that get converted and hooked, the better. Meanwhile enjoy the site. Talk to you soon.
SGG
Tawabawho?
