    Ideas for a Firefly spin-off

    The only realistic way to bring back Firefly is to spin it off with new characters, the same universe and maybe cameos by the original cast.

    My idea: Now, I've seen plenty of rip-offs of SF fan fic series that don't work because they are carbon copies of their original source material, i.e. most Star Trek and Stargate fan fic. What I am proposing are these series ideas:

    1) A series focusing on an Alliance bounty-hunter that hunts down suspects and brings them before the Alliance, but over the course would grow increasingly critical and maybe start a second war for independence. How the series would go is anyones guess, but I can see it either taking place many years ago and focusing on Shepherd Book (because I suspect him of being involved with the Alliance that way) or an entirely new character set around the time of the series or the film.

    2) A series focusing on a space mafia like Niska. Which could probably have original cameos.

    3) A series focusing on Alliance scientists and there evil experiments.

    4) A series focusing on a cop, his crew and his journies throughout the 'verse. Possible cameos.

    What do you think and what can you come up with?

      Anything that puts us back in the 'Verse is good. Well, unless it focuses on sewage technicians, but you get my drift.

      I'm not so sure a hypothetical spin-off would need to be vastly different from Firefly. Just as both SG-1 and Atlantis are about a bunch of people going through gates to have adventures on other worlds, so both series could be about an odd bunch of people sharing an unremarkable spaceship.

      That or the Jayne thing...
      And now it's time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven's hour is over now... the clock is striking Twelve's.

        The other ideas do sound great but a Jayne series, would be awesome.

          As long as (Jewel Staite) Kaylee's there, I'll watch.

            How about a series set 10-15 years later, Kaylee has her own ship and crew. It's a sure fire hit!

              I'd like to see that! But Mal should appear also from time to time!

                    I reckon Kaylee would have her own fleet by then but only ships she really likes.
