Pretty amazing tribute to the show, Joss, the cast, and to us browncoats. Excellent show and thanks to the cast and the Science Channel for putting it together for us to enjoy.

Impressive, even after all these years.

I kinda like the fact that Joss was not there. Sometimes he can dominate the discussion.
I do not fear God, I fear the ignorance of man.
A warning to everyone, AURaptor is a known liar.

Has he severed all ties with the franchise?
I'm sure if I were 67 damn years old I'd want some peace n' quiet too.
Oddly enough, there is discussion threads on his IMDb page asking if he is gay, and one of the replies is "He's not a grampa- he never married"
HAH.
Don't know who did that but, FUNNY
I just assume most people in Hollyweird are tri-sexual until I'm proven otherwise. Just saves time that way

it was about 3 hours too short for my liking..and I know I've seen some other footage that didn't make the broadcast, but I also have to recognize that for us starving fans...we could sit there and hear it all day long and come away wanting more...fair enough...it was just great that these folks care that much that a 10 yr revisit was important to them...and while i can imagine guys like Nathan are career people and know how important it is to work the fan deal for any of his shows... I do believe that he truly appreciates the Firefly product and what it meant to him at that point in his career and his life and there is no doubt that these actors bonded and are proud to show it..old school holly wood...you'd have to be on the inside to know who got invited to who's house for parties etc...but this cast wears their hearts and love for each other out there for all to see...and they are gentle and loving and truly appreciative to all us geekies...I mean I can hide with the best of em..put on the suite and go to the office.. blessed to be as handsome as any avatar I might create for myself (grin)..but in the end...I get choked up when I see people truly care about a product, care about an idea, about each other ..it's just a plus that the show was something I totally digged and I don't have to hide my face as if it were a Brady Bunch reunion.
I only hope that producers of other shows realize that guys like me might otherwise not even check out their new TV series except that we see one of our beloved Serenity crew in the cast...that brought me to watch shows like Chuck, the Cape, V, Castle, etc. I likely would never have tuned in.

So... to early for spoilers? Just in case...
SPOILER ALERT!!
My favorite part, of course, was when Joss was asked what he would do differently if the show hadn't been cancelled. His reply was, "Well, I probably wouldn't have killed anyone." Alan Tudyk's response was priceless.
With all the talk of resurrecting the show... as much as I'd love it, I just don't think it's a viable option anymore. Even a movie would be iffy. The actors have moved on. They have aged. Some of the characters (with either key questions that were never answered about them or just plain popular) are dead. As much as Joss claims to hold a special place in his heart for this show, I just don't see any hope of the show coming back. I mean, they might try a "TNG kind of thing, but really, what are the odds of casting another group of actors with such great chemistry on and off the screen? Slim to none. It would be a completely different series that would be constantly compared to the original. I know, I know... that's what they said about Star Trek :) I dunno. I just don't see it happening.

Finally got to watch it. I liked it.
But (all the men who are in love with Summer Glau will kill me but) Summer Glau is the biggest airhead/inarticulate person I've ever seen on television. I don't know how someone that seems so shallow and incompetant could play one of my favorite charactors of all time. I'm convinced she has a touched cousin that she immitated through the whole thing because her River is wonderfully played but , in interviews I've seen of her she had no idea, and still doesn't seem to, how significant what she was doing was.
Plus I've never thought she did good in anything else I've seen her in. Note that this is my own opinion and so I don't expect others to see it or agree.

I think Summer Glau is kinda shy and maybe doesn't express herself well on some points. Although she has said things about some of her roles, particularly as pertains to mental health issues, that I don't agree with.

If Summer is as much of an airhead/clueless as I think she is, I don't know that we can blame her for saying dumb stuff, I think she is just totally dimwitted. Oh well, if nothing else she made a great River, though I can't figure out how for the life of me, the cousin that she's immitating is the only answer I can come up with that makes sense. I'm glad people tell me I look like River and not that I look like Summer. Not that looks are terribly relevent in life, but I'd rather be compared to someone I admire and respect than someone I think is silly.
