I never really watched this show much in it's first go round on tv but I do remember it had a giant fan following who did all they could to try and keep it on the air.

Any "Firefly" fans here??

I've only watched the Serenity movie, and learned about the whole "Firefly" scandal with Fox afterward. The movie was "ok", but I'm guessing that if the series have so much cult following, it must be really awesome.

I doubt Firefly will ever get any new episodes unless it has some independent funding. From what I've heard, the movie performed poorly. There is a lot of fan support, but not enough to sustain the ratings a series needs to be considered successful.

Firefly is a neat concept with some interesting characters, but the story wasn't able to keep me hooked. It was all over the place - one episode is an old west style shoot out, another is a raid on a high tech hospital, another is adventures in space. It felt like the show was trying too hard to find an identity and failing in the process.
