Now, to start it off, my idea (probably not original, but I don't think it's been tried): raise money to buy the rights to the show from Fox through a fan organization (the browncoats), then turn the rights over to, say, the Sci-Fi Channel (with the crap they've been putting out lately, they need a show like Firefly) or some other network that's interested. Now, I have no idea how much the rights would cost, or how interested the other networks would be, but I think it's worth a shot.

Sounds good in principle , but it won't work...Show biz doesn't work that way , and it has been suggested before , even sort of tried...

First , greedy bastards at Fox would never give up the rights within a timeframe in which we could raise the coin...Just surmounting the myriad potential legal issues would eat up every bit we could raise...And someone would have to hold all the coin in an escrow account , and make provision to disburse the account in the event of our failed bid...

'Skiffy' is too iffy...We need to think FRANCHISE ! Hollywood loves a franchise...Right now we have to focus on the BDM Collector's Edition , because that's our best affirmed hope for more MOVIES .

Still , I'd favor a miniseries on a quality pay-cable net like HBO , because it has a much broader demographic reach than Sci-Fi . And , even that seems unlikely for now...What we really need is a corporate angel , like Jeff Bezos at Amazon
(he's a Billionaire!) , with a vested interest in more Firefly , to pick up our cause...

Joss the Boss says we have a realistic opportunity with moving a lot of copies of the Collector's Edition...He's planned the work , we just have to work the plan...

Good of you to have the enthusiasm to suggest something...Ideas is Nice !

But FOX the production people made it, liked it, and continue to do what they can to help out the property.

Call the network executives bastards. But don't lump in the production people.

Actually I don't see the cast as spread to the four winds. Rather, they continue to work and are becoming much more well known. This will actually help encourage the continuation of Firefly/Serenity. Studios like it when the actors are known and have a following... they become more bankable!
