Quote:When I've mentioned it to people I have had the "Western and Sci-fi? thats an odd mix don't think I'd like that" i.e. my mum, loves westerns doesn't even care enough about sci-fi to dislike it.

Quote:Originally posted by ghostwriterxx: I actually have run into many problems converting people. Most of the time if I knew someone was coming over, I'd put on Out of Gas or Ariel to try and draw them in. Most people couldn't take their eyes off it, and would ask a couple questions, but didn't seem interested in actually watching it.
Quote:And finally, my more positive cases...one guy said "The only thing good about that show were the lesbians", after he moved in I MADE him watch it and he loves it and quotes Firefly.

Quote:Originally posted by Diz: OK, this isn't a reason as to why a person didn't watch it initially, rather why they won't watch it now. One I hear often. "If it's so good, why was it canceled?" We know why that's a stupid argument, because we know how Fox screwed the show over after they figured out they didn't like the show they ordered. But explaining that to the non-fan... well, you see, Fox wasn't happy with the show Joss (no, not Josh) gave them, so they gave the show no real support, aired episodes out of order, gave it a bad time-slot... I've seen many eyes glaze over. One guy even said, "but yeah, if it was good it would've been treated better by the network." You know, because only good shows get renewed, like According to Jim, and how long has Reba been on the air? OK, preaching/choir, I know. But it's a factor. That said, I don't think everyone will love Firefly, and it doesn't make them stupid. I really think it may not be some people's cup of tea. I love Joss, really dig his style. But a good friend of mine finds his stuff "overly-pop influenced and too self-referential." Whatever. He's my friend. I don't understand him, but he's my friend.
