Apparently the gods have spoken and they have decided to celebrate the cult-favorite’s 10th anniversary. In doing so, the Science Channel is shooting a brand-spanking-new one-hour tv special chronicling the Firefly cast reunion at the World famous San Diego Comic-Con this week. *kicking self for not being at SDCC*

Browncoats Unite, the special’s name, “will include footage from Friday’s reunion panel, featuring several members of the original team including star Nathan Fillion and creator Joss Whedon. Plus, the cast is shooting an in-depth behind-the-scenes roundtable interview that will dive deeper into burning fan questions about the beloved series. Both the panel and the roundtable will be moderated by Entertainment Weekly‘s own Jeff Jensen.”

(Friday’s 12:30 p.m. Comic-Con panel will also feature Alan Tudyk, Summer Glau, Adam Baldwin, Sean Maher, showrunner Tim Minear, and writer Jose Molina. The special, produced by Pangolin Pictures, promises to unearth defining memories and first-person accounts of making the show from both sides of the camera.)
