Could this be remade as a TV series? I think it could

Except "Firefly" wasn't about law enforcement in a single location, it was about ex-rebel outlaws carrying out one job after another in various "space western" locales.

Yeah I tend to agree with you hollankreil. Firefly was nothing like this movie.
I too would like to see a TV series that had the same feel as Outland.- Isolated in a bleak, deep space location
- Populated by working class types and research types.
- Dealing with some unusual phenomenon
We are lucky that "Moon" was made.
It was created as something of an homage to the feel of some of those classic 70s/80s space isolationist films: - 2001
- Silent Running
- Alien (and Aliens)
- Saturn 3
- Outland
And also "Moon 44"

That would be pretty cool. I think you'd have to scale the mine up a lot though - there's only like 2,100 people there in the film, so it's like a really small town or a large village. Not much scope for a constant stream of law-breaking.
Either you make the mine about ten times the size, at least, or maybe better, you put a whole bunch of different facilities all over Io and make the Marshall force responsible for all of them.

If you're still interested/ checking this thread also try a series staring Michael Pare (from Moon 44) that ran from 2000-2003 called Starhunter. Doesn't seem like a police series, I think it was more Firefly-esque, but it was definitely set in the grimy, industrial, ass-end of space that you're wishing to see more stories in.
