Howdy FFF.net

Just updating a bit. I haven’t given up hope……..not one iota on Firefly, not one minuscule bit! Why the networks seem to think that it was some flash in the pan type of tv phenomenon is beyond me.

F*>< ( the bastards) are trying to wait us out and make the most amount of money they can on a television series they never gave a second chance. A lot of brownouts are saying “forgive and forget” but I ain’t that way. Sorry if this pisses anyone off but I don’t work for F*>< so I don’t have to like the bastards and I don’t have explain any reason why another person isn’t aware of beautiful ART when they see it! Also I don’t have to sugar-coat anything!

They( ( F*><) @#%$&ed-up and they know it! Now they are trying to use time and people’s limited memory to help heal they’re stupid shitful ways ( can you say TSCC and DH?).

Joss created a show that was way beyond what your average television viewer was ready for. Now that it is understood what Whedon was doing and what his vision of future (entertainment) was……F*>< ain’t about to let the legal rights to FF go without a fight. If you look at it…why…..? Why would a company relinquish the rights to a show that continues to make them loads of money……and them without having to pay one red cent to creators and actors? The pasture is REALLY GREEN if you get my drift….?

They are making a lot of money off of dvd sales and the internet.

While…..the viewer (Fans) love the ART and how the show was create. Some networks seem to think that if they try something that is beyond Firefly ( just rip-offs) that they are giving the people what they want……. They are totally WRONG!!!

Are we idiots? The actors lived those characters! They became those characters…..isn’t that an actors job….to convince you that who they are on the screen and who they play are real? the fantasy it true?

I escaped with FF for 14 episodes. Why the CEO’s of television networks can not understand that is way beyond me. I thought their job was to get a grasp of what people like? To see what will work given time…..they failed miserably!

To any TV executives that may read this….FF was beyond it’s time….. And the company you work for is shitting on a big moneymaker. Sleep on that tonight!!

I disagree on hatred. It is a tool, like any other, and it is good to know what it is for and when to use it.

Part of FF's problem was that it was too good - not a large enough market for it, and it applied across too many demographics to consistently guide advertisers who would be seeing their product.

A parallel case - classical music. Number of listerners hasnt changed much in thirty years. No new Mozart, yet Mozart sells well as ever. So too with FF - it has entered the pantheon of classics. People will watch it long after the currently popular fluff is swalled into the great sea of obscurity.

I am greatful for even as much as we got.

One thing you seem to be sure of, but I'm not, is that the FOX television network is making money off the Firefly DVDs. Most assuredly 20th Century Fox Film Studio is, since they produced the show. But the network that canceled it? I'm not sure about that.
