Firefly.

I mean more series, uh episodes.

Really? The movie was the handout for the people who were pissed the series didn’t last longer. Asking for a second movie is a nonstarter, even if the first was good.

Wouldn't watch anything from Joss at this point anyways. 10 years ago I would have been all over a Firefly reboot or another movie, but Joss kinda dug his own grave on that by being a total piece of shit. And then after rewatching Buffy/ Angel, and Firefly so many times I realized that they are just the same stories and same characters with some different actors.

Serenity was the best thing Joss ever wrote and it was essentially a pity fuck.

Which, honestly, to be 100 percent honest, it wasn't. I hated the movie. I understand its my fatal flaw, but I look at works holistically. One of the things that got me into firefly was it's pacing; the promise that everything was going to have room to breathe. I would rather just have the first season; the movie crammed plot threads and character arcs meant to sustain an entire 5 season series into a 2 hour movie. Except its worse, because I got to see what the slow burn was like.
