Sci-Fi Channel Picks Up Firefly

An anonymous reader writes "Firefly, a science fiction series that was canceled midway through its first season on Fox, has found a new home on the Sci Fi Channel. Fans of the cult-hit series Firefly will be pleased to learn that the show has been picked up by the Sci Fi Channel--just two months before the release of Serenity, a Universal Pictures film based on the series. Looks like they'll be airing all the ones we've already seen, plus 3 that never got aired the first time around. A bonus - They'll be seen in the correct order."

    Whedon: We will rule over this time slot, and we will call it... "This Time Slot".

    Fox: I think we should call it... your grave!"

    Whedon: Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

    Fox: Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh...now die!
