Ya that was the HUGE issue with Fox screwing Whedon over. Fox forced Whedon to air the second episode first, so the season was all screwed up from the start.

I loved it when it came on and was shocked when it stopped showing up Friday nights when that John Doe show with Dominic Purcell was still airing right before it. (this was before I followed movie and TV on ze internets)

To me though, I think what killed this show was the horrendous marketing. The commercials were awful, corny, full of bad music… made it look like some old western parody with bad jokes. From the commercials back in the day, I was not interested but I did love it when I caught it with my dad once…then got hooked from there.

[...] Screenrant: Shepherd Book Gets a Book, Serenity Fans Rejoice. Whedon said that if there were ever by some fortuitous miracle, a Serenity sequel, there would never be enough room to explain Book’s back history. So Whedon derived the only way possible to expound on his own universe. The place where he has the control he needs to pour forth his inner imaginations. [...]

Huh, your name sounds german… ?
Well that explains alot I didnt see all the televised epsiodes in order,and the order on the dvd seemed wrong ??
My mistake.

But I do know that the network never wanted Firefly to succeed. They conspired to end it. Cheers !

@790

I live in region 1 (USA). The episodes aren’t in order on how they aired, but how they were supposed to air.

What country (dvd region) do you live in, Angmar?

In my comment the use of the word “Abandon” meant that yes, they didnt pick it up…

And like I said they wernt mistakes the network wanted the show to fail. Does that compute ???

@790

1. The DVD’s have the correct episode order.

2. How could FOX abandon the movie when they never picked it up in the first place?

3. A bunch of other mistakes by FOX led to the cancellation. Like airing shows out of order, preempting the show with sporting events, and not promoting the show correctly.

Hey Rob and Bruce, FOX had it in for Firefly from the beginning, and they canceled it because they were pissed at Whedon for a number of reasons, one was taking time away from Buffy.

FOX continued to pour salt in the wound by releasing the dvd with the shows out of order.

One reason Universal produced Serenity. FOX abandoned it.

It is quite the shame and no one should ever let Fox forget their mishap.

Hey Bruce,

Ya man, I know the real reasons why there hasn’t been one, heh, its just disappointing. Whedon has alot on his plate with his new show debuting…but both his Marvel comic runs are over. I guess he’ll also be working on more Dr. Horrible.

Other than that though, of the original cast, only Summer Glau and Alan Tudyk have been stable as of recent. Although Nathan Fillion is getting some cool work finally

What a shame this ended with 11 aired episodes when Buffy got 7 seasons
