I swear Fox just wanted Firefly dead from the start. They aired the episodes out of order, they felt the actual first episode was "too slow" so the first on they aired was the 2nd episode that had things in it that assumed you knew things about the characters. I think they also changed the time slot 3 times on a show that only had 14 episodes. So then they got to claim low viewership and kill it. Joss got so pissed because it was the show he had always wanted to make, getting him to do the movie to wrap the story up for the fans was a trial for him, and he changed his planned arc a bit and also killed Wash in part to try and make sure the show stayed dead because it was too painful for him to do again.
As a fan I would still love to see it brought back in some form but I also understand why Joss would never want to be involved with it again and without Joss you don't have Firefly.
