This needn't be specific to the central characters. So the tapestry from which to draw on is rich and full of potential.

So who would you pick.... And what angle would you like to see it take?

Cheers

Jayne and River, as the odd couple, doing good and evil deeds, just to keep the audience entertained and confused.

Zoe as the lead supported by a couple of the 'not quite so major' characters (in other words, not River or Mal). There's no way it would be as good as Firefly, so it shouldn't try. I think it would be more interesting to see how Zoe moves on and to see the 'verse throw the eyes of some of the characters who got less action in the series and movie.

Much as I love Mal, I don't think I could watch a spin off with him in it and not think "this is kind of cool, but it's just not as good as firefly." However, I'd love to see him guest star in a few episodes.

Saffron, running a new scam with a new name every week. Maybe a trickle of backstory every now and then, until we find out her name and where she comes from and why her one true love is manipulation.


Facts are stubborn things.

I know what you mean. It would feel somewhat estranged from the real show.. Interesting.

Saffrontales is a definite winner. Yet I'd like to see the continuing bumbling adventures of Marco and The Other Guy. Forever scoring weak crime. Like when in Serenity Mal knew to find the mechanism to open the real vault during the payroll heist, Marco & chum would have considered the few bills in the false vault a good score. Then they'd lose it anyway running from the Reavers.

And so forth each week, barely surviving despite their incompetence. Maybe a little Jayne back story. A few cameos of Zoe, usually huddled in a dark corner of some seedy bar, talking business.
