The Rights to Firefly bought by...The Science Channel?
According to this, at least.
What does that mean for us Firefly fans? Apparently, not much beyond the show reshowing on cable, along with "new extras", and a physicists explaining physics at the end of each episode. So...yay? Nay? Or just "The Science Channel? What?"

Archer and Armstrong vs. the World

Oh, Seil.
It was a cool show about cowboys in space fighting this evil empire, and also fighting these mutant guys. They even made a movie. In theaters and everything.

GTFO! Leave all your respect points at the door.
OT; Not much to say really. I don't get this channel and it's only showing the series over again, which I, (and I'd hope to god all of you as well) already have on dvd. When my friend first showed me this we thought it meant there was a new series being made, but then all my hopes were crushed when we realised we were wrong. It was a sad day.

As happy as I am about the series being picked up again (Firefly is honestly my favorite TV series in history), I'm not sure I'd be in favor of new episodes being made.
Mostly because Joss Whedon has gone on record saying that on the off chance it DOES get picked up for more episodes, the Serenity movie remains canon. Which means Book and Wash can only be seen in flashbacks. Also, Summer Glau is fuckin' 29 years old, you guys. I don't know if she can really pull off the sad, tortured teen anymore. What I WOULD support is either 1) a reboot or 2) a new series set in the same universe. I heard about this news on facebook accompanied by a short interview with Nathan Fillion, where after being asked if he would play Mal again, he said "Yes. Yes."
