Not sure what this means. I may be having to much enthusiastic and positive feelings about this, but do you guys/gals think that they might be feeling out the ratings for a possible comeback?

They had Firefly on the new OVATN channel last month too, they show it on scifi periodically too.

It is my very favorite show, but isn't the science channel for discovery channelesque things? that has always been my understanding, so I'm surprised that they would show a scifi show on there, seems odd to me.

If Larry the Cable Guy can have a show on the History Channel, I have no problem whatsoever with the Science Channel airing Firefly!

So, they're going to air the actual show, not do a show about the science of Firefly?

Weird.

Not very likely. Not a channel that would have the funds to relaunch anything. More likely they're airing it because it's cheap.
