Interesting. I am watching on Netflix. Why Science channel, and not SyFy?

Doesn't sound like a revival is in the works, but it sounds like a nice presentation of the old show. That'll be DVR'ed for sure.

I love Westerns, and I love sci-fi. And Adam Baldwin is God. Thus, Firefly was perfection.

Serenity came out the same year as Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Which was better? No contest.

Here's a short and funny video just for you Browncoats.

I don't see any hope. Fillion is on Castle. Baldwin is on Chuck. Glau is on The Cape. Baccarin is on V. Not gonna happen.

I would. Why? Because these guys do cable TV in 12 episode installments. If you look at TNT and FX shows you will see stars on broadcast TV often. It's pretty common now. Most cable shows can shoot an 12 installment run in 15 weeks or less. Sometimes even shooting both shows at once.
With the ex working at Turner I see many stars running about that shoot broadcast shows, too.

I'll give another reason: they'll have to rebuild the main sets, since the original sets don't exist anymore. And how quality a show is it going to be if they take 15 weeks to shoot 12 installments?

Has more to do with the writing and acting, than the time spent taping.

In the immortal words of William Shatner:

"Oh for God's sake . . . get a life, will you?”
