Ladies and gentleman I would like to add one more thing to the rumor mill. I was just poking around myspace and looking at the Firefly group I am in and someon posted this:
Quote:
I attend a theatre group in Hollywood that is run by a professional script doctor (who will remain nameless, because I don't know how "Top Secret" this info is).
Ya know how UPN and the WB are merging to one network? Well guess what cast members have been in and out of meetings with the people working on the merger recently?
THE CREW OF SERENITY!
I was absolutely STUNNED to hear it, but am so glad! This guy has never steered me wrong, and it may still all fall through, but that's the juicy news right now.
They're also looking to change the proposed "CW" name of the network to something else. But that's just an aside.
Ok so of course everything you read on the internet isn't true and in light of Joss's comments earlier, maybe the reason why he didn't come out and say get over it is because it really could be a reality and can't say yet. Either way I have no idea, also I don't have any way of debunking this kid's claim but hey if there is a glimmer or truth in it I hope it makes people feel shiny inside. It did for me.
If I come across anyone elses rumors or garbage that sounds positive I will bring it for us to cling on.
If theres whores, I'll be there...

Hey folks! In an effort to make the letter writing process easier, I started a new thread with mailing addresses on it so hopefully that will save folks some scrolling and digging. It's entitled: Mailing Addresses for the Faithful. Cheers!
BTW, I got us two new recruits today. Hopefully, they'll show up here before long. It only takes 3 days after all...

Seems to me that letter writing is the way to go. If the CW is considering the show then it shows our support for it. If they are not considering it, then it lets them know that maybe they should. Either way, it can only help us. I would also think that both e-mailing and sending snail mail would be best. Keeping people's in box filled with Browncoat messages and sending in snail mail would certainly make the statement that there are fans who want the show back on the air. I know of two other fandoms that had their shows cancelled early and the fanbase rallied and wrote letters and in both cases the shows were at least given a mini series. If we keep pushing and let them know we still want more we could get our show back. I would think now would the time for some action since the fanbase is still growing. One thing is certain, sitting still will get us nowhere.

My understanding of the UPN address is that it is the person who is/will be running relavent things at CW, so don't be worried that the address itself is UPN.

To show that the heart can make the head believe anything (and perhaps demonstrate my powers of self-delusion), I offer the following scenario to reconcile the rumor with Joss's response.
Joss says that he wasn't approached to specifically make a SereniFly show. But he may have been approached to create a new show for the network. He may have been the one to pitch the idea of resurrecting FF, but only if the original cast members can be brought on board. If this CW was still in negotiations with the actors, then theoretically they may not have really started talking to Joss about developing a new FF yet. See, I've just turned Joss's post into one o' them infamous non-denial denials...
Of course, I'm probably just wildly speculating, and it's much more likely that the rumors are probably totally bogus. Still...

OH GOD! THAT KERNLE OF HOPE!It just wants to explode.
Nothing contructive to add. Just the fact that reading this just makes me happy and entertaining the possibility (however much I might be setting myself up) is fun and make me all giddy like. (giddy is ok since I'm a girl 
)

*The following contains immature references and fantasies concerning Joss Whedon. Read at your own risk*
Joss Whedon is a DICK! If I ever met him, I'd be like, "You're an ASSHOLE, Joss Whedon!". And then because he's such a douche', he'd probably be like, "Ohhhh, look who's cranky! Making a "boo-boo" face because I gave up on his stupid little show!", then I'd be like, "Look who's making a 'there's a foot up my ass because there really IS a foot up my ass' face!", then I'd kick my foot strait up his narrow ass and walk around with a Joss shoe for the rest of the day. Everywhere I'd go, people'd be like, "Look, Joss Whedon shoes!", and I'd be like, "Nope, these are Nike's new 'SKANKBITCH SUPREME' line of footware". Then I'd shoot him for being a bitch... not int he heart or the head, just in the kneecaps so I could watch him squirm. Then i'd tie a noose around his neck and drag him around all day the way he yanks us Browncoat types around with things like "WE'RE FILMING NEW EPISODES! of Dateline. I'm gay." If they EVER make a sequel to Brokeback Mountain I'm going to drug Joss Whedon and provide him as a stunt double for the love scenes.
Burn in hell, Joss Whedon!

I hope, as always, this clears things up. And I hope the executives at the Carnie Wilson network DO give me a call. I've got a million ideas for redoing their offices.
Power to the people who are powerful enough to crush the other people! -jossy.
Doesn't anyone else here want to see Serenifly-Verse on the Carnie Wilson Network? Since Jewel is out maybe Carnie can be Kaylee, as originally planned, fleshy and voluptuous.
Just a thought.
