Have to say that now that Serenity has taken flight, it looks more and more likely that Firefly is dead. If Serenity does well, the stars will become too big for TV, simple fact. Sure, there could be a spin off with a new cast, perhaps filling in the story between movies, if Joss wanted to go down that route - I get the impression however he would like to stick to the silver screen for a little while.

The fact of the matter is we just don't know the details of the contract agreed on between Universal and 20th Century Fox. But I would be willing to bet it was specified by Universal that Fox could not pursue a revival of the series until they are done with the films rather than the other way around. However, money talks and contracts can be renegotiated. We just need to insure that the BDM is successful, and the best way to do that is to keep spreading the word about the DVDs. The more people who see the series means more who will be anxiously awaiting the BDM.

And as for networks who might run a new series, don't forget that Universal is part of a conglomerate that includes NBC, SciFi, USA, and Bravo, and probably a couple more I'm not aware of.

No problem, makerofpaths. It just seems to be the most logical assumption to make. But I am also very sure that although Joss would love to become the next big thing as a film director, he would still like to bring Firefly back to the small screen. It is the only venue appropriate for the heavy story arc he obviously had in mind from the start.

there is no way that Joss would ever do a spin off with a different cast. he wouldn't have even done Serenity if one person was missing. if he ever did a spinoff in that matter, my respect for him would go directly down the toilet

Well, to my mind, a spin-off would mean no original cast because they're still doing the movies. So there's that. And since Firefly's success hinges on its characters, there's a huge problem right there.
