Topic: The non-lethal cancellation of Firefly is still one of the greatest tragedies in TV history.

The show had massive potential and the fact that it retains a dedicated following shows how big it could've taken off. It could have been up there with established franchises such as Doctor Who, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Farscape, and perhaps even Star Wars.

And trying to reboot the series now would likely only make the show terrible given that the cast are older now and it would render the original series useless. A continuation wouldn't be the same given the deaths of two characters. I'm Disney would treat the property better than FOX ever did. Deadpool & Wolverine showed that Disney is willing to retain the R ratedness of certain properties.

Perhaps an adult animated series would suffice.

It would have jumped the shark if they got to 3 seasons.

I'm glad I saw it, but wouldn't watch it again. Not really into Joss Whedon or Nathan Fillion's stuff (don't hate them or anything, just not my jam).

What do you mean by "non-lethal"? Are there show cancellations where they actually execute the crew and actors??

Tragedies happen a lot in television and film. Such as the death of the original actor in The Crow.

Perhaps it's because they brought Firefly back and finished the story.

It was an okay show but internet nerds overhyped it. They never wanted anything permanently bad to happen to the captain so there was very little character development. He'd like get his ear cut off or almost die or whatever and through scifi magic he'd be good as new by the beginning of the next episode.

6 or 7/10 show. Not terrible but I'm not sad it got cut.

Catherine thinks most shows/movies are cancelled because an actor or actress dies during production.
