Firefly is spotlighted at the bottom of the main page at www.tv.com. How shiny is that?! I wonder how they arrive at that score.

There is only 1 review so far. Should we go help them out with more?

The site comes with a Firefly forum, episode guide, and trivia list. It's a good place to help spread the love.

WhoIsRiver:

Well, it's good to hear it said. But...

The show's synopsis was apparently written by an idiot. Not only is the grammar atrocious, the reviewer describes River "a.k.a. The Fugitive" as "an experienced psychic who can read most minds."

Did the reviewer even see the show? If so, said reviewer obviously didn't understand much of what s/he saw. A pretty sad attempt at synopsis, unfortunately.

At the end of the review is an "Edit" link. Maybe if a Brwoncoat joins the site, they'd consider giving a more lucid review...

Respectfully,

zoid

I just rewrote that existing synopsis. Let's hope the moderators accept the corrections.

Yeah, but Who's the Boss is #8.

#8???

Beats Buffy, Angel, and Star Trek TNG?

I hate to say, but I question the validity of this list.

Yeah, no kidding! "Who's the Boss?" should have been at #2 or #3 at least...

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Voting must still be going on because I see Firefly @ #8 now.

Pretty impressive for a show gone more than two years now. Of course we all knew it was the best gorram show of all time since day one.

Ugh! Now down to #64! Hopefully that kind of drop does NOT foreshadow movie attendance trends in September/October! Egad, I shouldn't even say it aloud.

Somebody gave it a score of 5.5, which has quite a significant affect on the average when there's only five scores in total. Sigh, time to join yet another website just to vote for Firefly/Serenity.

We're going to need a *lot* more browncoats rating this in order to move into the top 10!

Jayne, your mouth is talkin. Might want to look into that.

ok...so, why should a posting at a website that i don't think too many people even know about have anything to do with the numbers at the film?
sci-fi is going to be running the show in a little less than a month.
let's see..."tv.com" (which no one I know even heard of) or SCI-FI, which is part of the basic extended cable package?

I look forward to seeing Amazon ranking for the Firefly DVD's after the SciFi rebroadcast. I hope SciFi promotes it well enough...

Oops, my bad. Still, I think there's enough of us to do it (tries to avoid the obvious reference to "doing the impossible", and fails).

We've got it back up in the top 20. I just posted my review. :)

Speaking of reviews, folks who have seen Serenity ought to start posting reviews at imdb.com. There aren't any up yet.

I posted my review a couple of days ago. Gave it a 10, of course (that's as high as they'd let me go.)

I just posted a review on imdb.com, as you suggested - no other reviews are displayed yet...

Excellent! I'm still pondering my review; I joined imdb yesterday with the intention of writing one, then realized I wasn't in an eloquent frame of mind. :) I'll have one up sooner or later.
