Well, I for one choose to hold. It's my Cap'n's order, and I'll stand by it.

Just the fact that there's a rumor, means we are in the thoughts of others, and we just gotta hope we get into the thoughts of the moneymakers and moneydealers.

As for recruitin', I gave the 1st disk of the series to my boss (I couldn't stand to give up more than that on a 3 day weekend)but I'll be surprised if he hasn't already done some shopping of his own!

So, in summation, we don our 'coats, grab our weapons (Jayne has Vera, I have "George") and HOLD! HOLD 'TIL IT RETURNS! 'cuz we don't have else but each other, for now. the doubters!

Serenity will fly again!

Really, we have to contact the person that just won the powerball lottery. Something like $125 million after taxes.

We just need to convince this person to part with about $20 million to finance season 2.

Shouldn't be too difficult.

Start with the part where Jayne gets knocked out by a 90 pound girl. 'Cause I don't think that's ever getting old.

Any thoughts?

Not 100% as much as faith that somehow it will return.. With as much reaction and chatter just on this site alone, I find it hard to believe that this is as far as it will go..
There are SO many possibilites. Take a look at all of the new shows on cable networks; the reimagined BSG comes to mind; and the massive success that continues to grow for it... If Firefly could get into syndication it would absolutely flourish..
SO, I guess I'm gonna wait and see... write the networks and keep the faith..
Let's all shine.

I bought FireFly two weeks ago and i've already watched it twice. Watched it once by myself and the second time with my wife. We bought and watched Serenity this past weekend also. I really hope that they will be able to continue this 'verse.

Not much more for me to say except, you've got yourselves a new volunteer!

Well, Klam, new volunteers need a Browncoat and since I'm the supply clerk, I'm just the person to give it to you.

*hands Klam and his wife a matching pair of regulation Browncoats*

Okay, so I suppose I've been snoopin' around the shadows of this message board for too long- hoping to feed to Firefly addiction. I feel I better make myself known as a part of this lovely world of FF fans. :)
My brother and I decided to check out Serenity in the theatres because of its good reviews. I'm not really a normal sci-fi fan or even a tv fan (although I have always loved "Next Generation") so I have to thank my brother for forcing me to discover this amazing 'verse.
I thought the movie was really good, but once I borrowed the Series from my brother, I absolutely fell in love with it- just like everyone else who gives it a chance seems to do. :) It's so funny because once I became a fan, everything seemed to remind me of the show or one of the characters.

It makes me so happy and hopeful to listen to you all talk about the future possibilities of Firefly.

Now that I've rambled on, my main point of posting is to report that since my brother and I first saw Serenity in the theatres, we have converted at least 10 new Browncoats- each with extensive networks- :) the latest being our parents and little sister who were visiting this past weekend. It was so cold here in Chicago that none of us wanted to leave my apartment, so I snuck in FF disk one DVD and we were off...

IHeartFirefly,

Not only am I going to have to hand you a browncoat... as a new recruit, you get one of those, but I think with all the recruitin' that you've been doing, we may have to come up with a commendation, lol

*hands IHeartFirefly a regulation 'coat*

Welcome to our happy ship. Hey, you keep going like this and our sequel is guaranteed! Thank you!

Don't be a stranger, we love to talk and we'll enjoy your posts. Please delurk more.

Oh, and someone will come along and offer you food, we're having dumplings and strawberries for dessert. My favorite....

I'm new here, but not new to Firefly. I think that in light of the new rumors and all the stirring that it has caused we should all make a goal of getting at least 5 people hooked on the show in the next month or so. Just think if a hundred people get 5 people hooked and those people get 5 hooked that number gets big really quick.

Also I've been around net rumors and had my fair share of cryptic show creators (anyone know JMS and B5?) A few times the writers/producers didn't know anything when in fact stuff was happening. So don't take the rumor for fact, but remember it may not be a lie just because Joss Whedon doesn't know about it. Chances are some CW execs were like "Hmm maybe we should try out that Firefly show." and someone heard them and told Kristen and she told us and everyone went crazy. Which is good because if those guys were considering it and they hear about the stir just a consideration caused they might be prone to actually attempt to pick it up.

BTW this is my first post and hopefully not my last :)
