[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 1681681, member: 2525"] I saw the Firefly panel at ComicCon last week. Joss was the lead speaker, and all of the actors were there. It does sound like Fox decided to kill the show before they even put it on the air. Someone high up decided they didn't like it, put it in a bad time slot intentionally, moved it around and changed the time, all with the intent of killing it. That was not the opinion of everyone at Fox, just someone high up. Now that the movie is coming out (and it looks really really good), Joss thinks it is not unlikely that we will see a lot more of this "show" in the future - either as a movie franchise or back on the air on a different channel. For the record, almost none of the actors have committed to anything beyond the movie, and those who have committed have done it for short term projects (except the actor who plays Book, who has a long term committment to a museum that would not interfere with filming). They pretty clearly all intend to continue filming beyond the movie, if it's possible. And, all of the actors really, really like each other and don't want the team ever broken up, if they can help it. [/QUOTE]
