But what font would they be in?

Self-depreciating humor. Your stock rises with me.

Wonder where the series would have gone if it hadn't been cancelled? No doubt we'd have seen Jubal Early again. Probably Niska and his thugs, too. I think River would have returned to normalcy eventually as the series went on (much like Joss' plan for the sadly-not-to-be Angel season 6 with vestiges of Fred coming out of Ilyria's personality).

God I miss this show.

I think we'd probably run into YoSafBridg at least once a season.

I am not Spock · September 1 2010, 02:12 AM

YoSafBridg probably would have become a recurring character, a thorn in Mal's side, ala Ethan Rayne in Buffy

Somewhat unrelated note, but after going through Firefly/Serenity last month, I decided to start watching ABC's Castle to at least get a semi-Mal fix. It's a decent methadone, but the first act in Season 2, Episode 6 was a dose of the real deal.

is that the halloween episode? someone showed me the clip when the episode came out and i was like

STR · September 5 2010, 02:44 AM

Yep. Since I was going through them all to catch up for the new season, it was a double shock. I think I missed some of the back and forth due to that. I think they threw in a Buffy joke as well, though I never watched that series. I'll have to rewatch the episode, it was pretty good all around. And I'm generally not a fan of cop dramas.

"Vampire Weekend" is the name of the ep, which like I said is #6 in season 2.

I just finished my rewatch, again, last night. It has the same effect on me everytime; wanting to see more. It is such a travesty that this show got canceled without giving it a chance. Their universe seemed so interesting and well worth exploring even further. It was refreshing not having an alien of the week, over the top and unrealistic space battles, and a believable human future. Perhaps, someday, someone will get the idea to remake this series. However, it probably wouldn't be the same without the original cast of characters.

STR · September 6 2010, 04:59 AM

^I honestly thought, while watching it recently, that it HAD to be cancelled. There was no way something this good could last.

Of course, I did notice that the show was actually getting better towards the end, but I try to push that out of my mind.

Mal · September 6 2010, 09:21 AM

What would have happened with the Blue Sun Group?

Would it be like Pepsi? or Blackwater? or Serco?

Just watching the epic mini-series Gettysburg, based on the Killer Angels which inspired Joss to write Firefly. Hard not to be moved by it, especially the ending, in a war which pitches brother against brother it ends with the Chmaberlain brothers finding each other having survived the chaos of battle and embracing
