I would guess another series is totally out of the question, but if they acted quick enough, there is a big enough fan base to support another movie (even if it is only made for cable...no need for a theatrical release since it was a network show to begin with).

I'd really love to see one more chapter, but I'd guess it would have to be set before the events of "Serenity" (and that's why I think they need to act quickly if they are ever going to pull it off....can't have a "reunion special" without getting too convoluted given the way "Serenity" seemingly ended the story).

That was a fun series. I can't believe it got cancelled that quickly, especially when you look at some of the other garbage that goes on for years.

I'm not even sure I get the science channel.. (checks)... hey, I do! Cool. Even tho I have the whole series on dvd, I'll tune in whenever I get the chance.

It'd be great if there were more adventures of Capt Tightpants and friends someday, but I doubt it'll ever happen. The movie was their big second chance, and it flopped. And Whedon certainly wrote it as a "one off" anyway..
