I am – Hercules!!

Apparently my lanky and excitable E! pal Kristin Vietch keeps posting that the new CW network (which will replace both UPN and the WB this fall) is actively contemplating a new “Firefly” series or miniseries or TV movie. Says she:

I've heard the CW is considering ["Firefly"] back as a series, miniseries or movie for next season. Hurrah! For you who missed my message board posting, on Tuesday, Nate Fillion, Summer Glau and Gina Torres were seen coming out of one of the exec buildings at Paramount, where they are putting together the new CW unit.

But Joss Whedon just posted on whedonesque.com very early Wednesday to say it ain’t true. The key excerpts:

Call me joss Whedon: Rumor Crusher! (Or "Mister Fendendo", if we're being intimate.)

No, there haven't been any overtures from the CW as regards a SereniFly spin-off. I haven't even heard the orchestra tuning up.

So you can all quit buggin’ me about it, man! Read all of Whedon’s ugly truth here.
