Maybe there is hope for "Firefly" TV movies.

central/20423


I don't know if the new "Futurama" will be made by FOX and sold to Comedy Central. Story didn't say who owned the rights.

I'm a huge fan. Futurerama is one of the best Sci-Fi shows on TV.

People who put cutesy political quotes in their signature should be tortured and fed their own family and/or pets.

I thought it already returned once. Guess I'm missing something here.

They did four direct-to-DVD and TV movies (90 minute espsodes), which were each also cut into four regular episodes. The success of those in the last year, led to the order for26 regular episodes.

I'm confused and a little pissed....don't get me wrong, I'm glad futurama is coming back, as delightfully irreverent as it is and it keeps me laughing for hours...why not bring back firefly? the fox suits said "it was a show that fans simply demanded we bring back" so now I'm asking what are we browncoats, chopped liver? I mean seriously no show, in my opinion, is more deserving of a resurrection than our beloved firefly.

okay i guess I'm really pissed...

ruttin' suits...

anyway here's where I got my info.

Zoë: Sir, we don't want to deal with Patience again.
Mal: Why not?
Zoë: She shot you.
Mal: Well, yeah, she did a bit.

At least there's some 'talk' on the matter.

We've already done the impossible, so what would made for t.v. movies be ?

The improbable ? Or more towards the utterly ridiculous ?

If'n you don't mind quoting or siteing your source of that, I'd take it as a kindness. :) I'm want to be hopeful, but a source on that would make me considerably happier. ;)

An animated show is going to be a lot easier to bring back than a live-action one. Futurama is getting mainstream attention due to rotations on Comedy Central and even MTV now. As much as WE love Firefly, it's not on that level of popularity.
