Yeah, if they can only find a show to replace it that already has a built-in fanbase.... Maybe it's time to start writing to SciFi again...

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Quote:Originally posted by everyworldspinnin: As much as I'd like to see Firefly come back, I think Sci-Fi is making some financial room for Caprica (the Battlestar spinoff). They couldn't afford to produce another full blown series on top of what they already have. I have my fingers crossed for Firefly though. That would just be the best news ever.

Yeah, if they can only find a show to replace it that already has a built-in fanbase.... Maybe it's time to start writing to SciFi again... My daughter and her fiance are very big SG-1 fans and that's what they said when I spoke to them on the phone. They both thought.. wait.. what if they are making way for something else? 'Course that's conjecture, but..... Wait a couple of weeks..being mindful of other folks' loss... then write. I'm going to. I would imagine that there are a lot of SG-1 fans feeling a lot of pain. We should be respectful of them. "You hold. Hold 'til I get back." Mal http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=19&t=22697] I agree, which is why I didn't out and out say that FF should be considered as a replacement. It does need a few weeks for Gaters to adjust to their loss - or years, lol. Imagine how we feel about FF being canned, and those feelings are still strong years down the line. In all honesty, all us Sci-Fi fans should be pulling together, whether we're Gaters, Browncoats, Trekkies whatever. If we all pooled our resources, imagine what a SF fanbase that would be! Problem is, whether you loved SG-1 or not, being pulled sucks, as it's another Sci-Fi series off the air (apart from the obvious re-runs). And with the exception of BSG, what other mainstream SF is still on air ? Okay, there's still SG-Atlantis, but other than that it's essentially re-runs of older series. So whether you're a fan of SG or not (and I'm not incidentally), it's a sad day for the whole SF community.

Quote:Wow... so that's it, now BSG sorta stands alone (and i've never seen it. should i check out the first disc or something?).
