It's still unthinkable that a series this good is cancelled...i mean seriously, what were they thinking??

I sure hope that someday a continuation would happen...even if it would be under a different name. This series has so much more that could be built on...even with Wash and Book gone.

Don't worry NurseRobyn we're not going down without a fight. Browncoats don't know the meaning of the word quit!
We're all still here, holdin' the line and will be for the duration. Oh.. yeah.. we're also doing stuff besides holdin'. Hope you'll join us, just check out the news and posts that come round about taking action and keep up with the Guerilla Marketing forum that's right below the General Discussion one on the front page.

You've not been properly welcomed I don't believe.
New folks usually get a virtual browncoat from me and lots of food from others... I'd reckon the others will be along soon.

*hands NurseRobyn a browncoat that fits just right*

Welcome to the 'Verse... share this wonderful show and movie with everyone that you care about... new Browncoats equal a better chance at a sequel or miniseries. Universal owns SciFi.. could be that they'd consider the miniseries idea first.

I don't think they were thinkin' Whatawhiner! Not at all!

We just have to keep workin' and being here and helpin' more folks learn about the 'Verse. That's what will help get another series, or a movie or a miniseries made. More folks asking for it, willing to spend their money on it. That's what Universal wants to see.

Welcome to this wonderful site.. I hope you come to love it here as much as I do....

*hands WhataWhiner a browncoat too*

There, you're all geared up... post often, enjoy the discussions... I'm sure someone will be along to offer you food. I'll come back by when they do... I'm partial to the shimmerwine myself.


Make yourself to home.

Haha thanks FollowMal, actually I was thinking of buying a few more copies of the series just to give them to my friends...if Universal is looking for sales as a green light to making more of the series, I might just do that!

...man, I just can't get over it...this series NEEDS more episodes!! I finished the series and the movie, it just feels like.......waiting, for the next season to start or something.

Anyway, glad to be on board! *puts on Brown Coat*

Speaking of browncoats, I want to get the one listed on the links, but it's like $500!!

don't forget giving the movie itself or getting oyour friends to buy the movie after they become hooked, b/c Firefly belongs to Fox, Serenity belongs to Universal, so what really helps would be the sales of Serenity.

We've been over this before. There is no sequel in the works but that doesnt mean there will never be one. Case closed.

Well to give you more of the story, there are two Fox's, network Fox, and the studio 20th century Fox.
The series was produced by the studio but was shown by the network. And it was the network that didn't get the show, pre-empted the show, shown it out of order and then cancelled. The studio was the one that allowed Joss to allow the show to be moved to another network, and ultimately allowed it to become a movie.

Also, the show is a great way to introduce someone to the verse b/c its a relatively slow and allows people to get attached to the characters. If the person is impatient then get them the movie, but the key really is get them hooked, and to help encourage the sequel, buy the movie. Buy the tv show too, b/c its great, plus im sure the people invovled, Joss Whedon, cast, crew get a commission from it.

I don't think it is necessary or even important to bring back the series without Wash and Book. Bring it back as it was in an earlier time and then when it is time to leave bring the movie in as a finale or a prequel to a finale. Personally I would prefer a series with the original characters to another movie, but would be thrilled with either.
