    "Firefly" just keeps hanging around!

    We've had several discussions here in the Guide about the show "Firefly", which spawned a movie "Serenity". It's really interesting how the public interest in this show not only stayed strong after it's cancellation, with some noticeable uproar, but there's STILL quite a bit of strength to it, NINE years after it aired! It's back in the news again, as The Science Channel has bought the rights to the original show, and plans to re-air it. Nathan Fillion (Castle), who played the Serenity's captain, Mal, said that he would like to own the rights to the show himself, and reprise his role.



    The show re-airs in about a week and a half, and this time it's in high-def. (cool!) Well, now fans are starting a movement to help him buy the show. Could we really ever see a re-start of the show? Personally, I think it's possible. I think all of the actors in the show are still going strong in the industry, and Joss Whedon is still around. Not likely, but possible.



    We've had several discussions here about the show and Serenity. Here's some of the longer ones:

    Well, we're safe for now. Thank goodness we're in a bowling alley.

    Yeah it was a great show, a bit on the cheesy side sometimes but it was older. I'd love to see a come back of it personally. Now that Sci Fy has axed Stargate (pretty upset about that....) need some sort of new show to follow lol. Seems like a ton of shows I was pretty interested in this past year have gotten the ax.

      Serenity - A Micro Review
      by David Meek


      A continuation of the Firefly TV series that was cancelled after only one season - a mistake IMO - Serenity is the brainchild of Joss Whedon (writer and director), creator of two of the more successful TV series of the last decade: Buffy The Vampire Slayer and its spinoff Angel....

      FYI, I see that Josh Weldon's neo-cult classic Serenity is on BD now.
      I saw it on sale at Buy.com for $17.50.

      I remember that this was a favorite for its CG and resolution a while ago.
      Those that now have BD players might be interested.

      TV Show KEVIN CAN WAIT I enjoyed the show Kevin can Wait last year with Kevin James and Erinn Hayes.

      Then, Kevin James, or producers, and writers decide they can't make the show last more than 1 more season with writing for Kevin and Erinn as a couple. Seriously? Erinn was fresh,...
