Since its cancellation in 2003, science fiction television series Firefly has achieved a powerful cult status. Interest from the show's loyal fanbase has helped launch a feature film and comic books as means of continuing the series. Fans express continued interest in a series revival, although 13 years out that looks increasingly unlikely.

Animator Stephen Byrne offers a glimpse of what could be: a short teaser trailer for an animated Firefly . There's no dialogue, but all the characters are there doing many of the things you would expect and hope for. Could this lead to an animated Firefly revival? Or is it too late?

Personally, I'd be more likely to shell out for yet another exclusive streaming service for this than for the new Star Trek series...

    I will pirate it, because to paraphrase Jake Sisko: "I'm American, I don't have any money." Thank the Great Obama Recession.

      Right, see, an animated series is too easily torrented. The real money's in mounting bike sheds to motorcycles and calling them cars.

        Oh, is that your problem? You recently had an unpleasant encounter with one of those "cars" which hit you from behind and is currently irritating the insides of your bowels?

          The troll doll stuck up my ass is problematic.
