I think Morena and Alan might have work as well.

From what I've heard, Joss planned for Alan and Ron to somehow make some more appearances despite what happened to the characters. So that might also be a factor.

Yeah, BP, I'd agree with that. I mean, it's not like people don't already ignore the movie because it was so dark. Those same people could just ignore the second season if it went somewhere against their tastes.

Meanwhile, we could get some more Firefly.

I get what you're saying Bytemite. We were expecting an offshoot of Firefly or Buffy, but this was something totally different and we had to have faith in Joss that he would bring it around.

But only one thing wrong with that.......as usual........Fox execs. I'm in the "meddling" camp - too many cooks spoil the brew. It took time but Joss eventually delivered; unfortunately he lost all but the die hard fans by the time he started to really cook. Dollhouse was somewhat a success - he got a second season!

In this case, lightning didn't strike twice.

But I trust Joss will find his mojo real fast when it comes to continuing the Firefly saga. He was just warming up when Fox pulled the plug.
My vote is for HBO (for creative freedom), but for sheer numbers SyFy (standard cable as opposed to premium cable). Just saying.

Let us pray!

I was a fan of Dollhouse - but I must admit it rarely felt like it had more than a season or two. It may well have worked better in fact as just a mini-series.

Sy-Fy greenlights the new series for 15 episodes, and although 90% of the original crew come back for the new incarnation, new characters are introduced in the very first episode.

I would tell all my friends(Like I did with the last freaking series) and this time they would watch it first run, or else.
I would record every episode.

70's TV FOREVER

If it it´s true, and the same crew get back on serenity then that would be greath even through the might be a little older than they should be :-)

Im happy with whatever they give us: New relaunch, Old crew, new crew, movie, series... I still dont know why they were able to do so many Star Treks (Dont get me wrong, I love star Trek), but fans are hesitant about Firefly Spinoffs.

But I think it mainly hangs on Nathan, because Mal is the central character and he is the one representing the fribges, the universe so to speak. So I doubt anything will move before Castle is over.

BTW: Joss said he is greenlighted to advance the storylines in the comics at least. So he does think about "the future" and what happens after the movie. I can very well imagine he will advance the storyline in cool ways.

(And no matter whathe does there will be badmouthing and people being disappointed, thats how it is. Hopefully there would be more new fans too)

I'd watch it, regardless of what network Joss got a deal with to air the show. Would I go nuts? Ruttin' right I would! I'd do the Dance of Joy until I passed out.

I wouldn't care which network, just not FOX.

I couldn't agree more. I think Joss made dollhouse as his most "mainstream" show and while it was interesting and great vehicle for eliza it wasn't pure Joss and eventually failed because it missed the elements of a joss created show and more like a lost or fringe show with less character development then I would have liked. I think in time Joss was making Dollhouse into something more Josslike but it was too late by then.

Just like in "ANgel" Joss started that show plan as a more episode of the weekly supernatural dectective show changing the format from season to season till it became a bigger "soaplike heavy character driven seasonwide event show" Joss doesn't do filler, he does big and angst and character development that makes characters change and grow and get messed with in profound rollercoaster ways that thrill you.

When Firefly comes back it needs to be unshakled from a network that wants filler episodes and an easy to jump in and out of series network. Syfy does screw up alot of series on a regular basis but it has no problem focusing on the long character/plot developement bend in its series like farscape,BSG.

I wish he would be completly seperated from fox production company period and working with syfy or any other network that would appreciate his talent more and let him create shows that he does best. even if they cancel the shows after a few seasons that network would at least create shows he likes to make and not some clone of some other mainstream garbage. Fox is what keeps Joss off of TV or kills a successfull Joss show IMHO.
