I am a HUGE Australian sci fi fan, books and vids. I thought i had seen everything.. Until a few months ago I was browsing Kazaa and came across a show called Firefly. IT WAS GREAT!! I now have all the aired episodes and am extremely unhappy that there apparently aint gunna be any more. FOX must be run by moronic, dumbass imbeciles.

cancelling the best show ever.. the fools!



I like Jaynes comment to Mal in ep "safe".. I like smackin'em. Heheh

Welcome to the site, Calhoun! Glad somebody from down under enjoys such a great show!

And about the stupid people running Fox.... isn't News Corp owned by Aussie Rupert Murdoch..?

KIDDING, KIDDING!!! sorry, couldn't resist the chance to rib you on that.


About the cancelation, yeah, it sucks, but we here are still hopeful that we'll be able to see the few unaired episodes this summer.

Keep Flyin'

Hey Gambit3,

You're right, Rupert Murdoch.. I'd forgoten that. I'll have to have a word with him. :)

I read somewhere that Joss Whedon is still looking for a different backer for the show and it still could live again. I dont suppose i'll hold my breath though.

I think someone should publish the e-mail address of the person at FOX most responsible for the decision to axe Firefly so we can all vociferously express our opinions to him/her.

Jayne - You might wanna reconsider that last part. You'see I married me a powerful ugly creature.

Mal - How can you say that! How can you shame me in front of new people.

LOL I laugh at that scene Always :)

Jayne: If I could make you prettier I would

Mal: I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I will end you.

Mal: My life, like a woman, is a mystery.

Mal: I don't know this woman!
Jayne: Then, can I know her?

Mal: I am NOT a monster!

Inara: Can you be a human being for thirty seconds?!

Book: If you take sexual advantage of her, you'll burn in a special hell, reserved for child molesters, and people who talk at the theater.

Inara: I wish you hundreds of fat children.

Mal: My days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Mal: She has a name.
Jayne: So does this. I call her Vera.

Mal: Good Bible.

Mal: I'm going to that special hell.

Saffron: You would lie with me?
Inara: I think we've lied enough.

Wash: Some people juggle geese.

Inara: You don't play a player.

Jayne: That's why I never kiss 'em in the mouth.

Jayne: See Vera? You get yourselfed dressed up, and you get taken places.

-----

Ok, those are all the ones I remember well enough to quote/paraphrase off the top of my head for that episode.

Huh? what do you mean "Get a life"?? What's this thing called a life? Can I download it from somewhere?

I'd have to say that "Our Mrs. Reynolds" is pretty much tied with "Out of Gas" as my favorite all-time Firefly episodes.

Ok, time for my medicine now.

Onya Gambit3, you got me chuckling :)

I particularly like that episode too. I look forward to seeing Safron again in one of the unaired episodes..

By the way I made some enquiries regarding Rupert Murdoch and discovered that he is now officially an American as he was required to get citizenship in order to aquire his media assets. So as you can see, my friend, the ball is now back in your court..Heh

My wife thinks i'm nuts cause I was laughing out loud at your quotes from "Our Mrs Reynolds"

Damn I wish there was more episodes....

Mal - Mercy is the mark of a great man. (Mal stabs Atherton) Guess i'm just a good man (Stabs him again) Well i'm allright.

Murdoch??? An American citizen????

Doh!

Why do we get the nutjobs here??

oh, and as far as quotes... there was a thread here about a week ago, full of the best firefly quotes out there... I think it was called the "Happy thread" or something to that effect...

I am a huge Firefly fan and also an Australian.

Being a big fan of Buffy and Angel I had eagerly been waiting for Firefly ever since I heard of it's inception.

And thanks to the miracle of cable internet was able to get the first ep less than a day after it first aired in the states, from that time on I was hooked and now many of my friends are too.

I think if fox had of aired the original pilot first the show may have faired better.

Damn.. I wish I had cable...

I downloaded the entire series on a 56k connection, also have downloaded every episode of Enterprise and Andromeda. Many, many, many Gigs of downloading there, all on 56k. Impressed? :)

Luigi, Buffy & Angel? LOL I refuse to be drawn into suck dribble.. sry thats just me.

I challenge anybody to speak of a show better than Firefly. :)

Burn the land and Boil the sea, you cant take the sky from me.

I'm an Aussie too (Sydney) and I've been watching. I've got all but Part 1 of Serenity, damn my bandwidth quotas. I'm an Adam Baldwin fan and downloaded Jaynestown, and I was hooked.
