...and here was me thinking (along with most other folks) that it started on Sunday 18th - when the truth is it started *tonight* (on the UK Sci-Fi Channel) with Serenity Pts. 1 & 2 at 8pm - and both are repeated again at 23.50am 'tonight', and several more times throughout the week!

:shiney: Serenity is still flying!
Even if I am jealous that it's not here in the states as well, I am very happy for others to get to see it and for it to be showing *anywhere*.

Hey UK... Have a blast with Firefly!!

You can only see this show for the first time once, so make the most of it! (and make sure more people than just the 'net downloaders tune in to Firefly)

Cheers,

mattro

I've been spreading the good word since it started - I got 'em all off the 'net and got a set of VCDs too - and will be getting 'em all on DVD when it arrives too.

There's a few of us over here fighting the good fight, trust me!

Yeah well get a few more, and have each of those few get a few more, and each of those few ...

And show the world what exponential growth of a fanbase looks like, then we would have enough fans to warrant it coming back, even from the view of the dim executives.

All right FF fans from the UK, I want some detailed reviews of those unaired episodes. Explain to me what I'm missing.

And tell us all what you think of "Serenity". Fox thought us stupid American viewers wouldn't be able to understand it. I believe it's one of the most involving pilots ever made.

Firefly will run in Denmark in the fall/winter - all 15 episodes. And not on any cable channel either, but on one of the two national channels, so everyone can see it. What time it will be on remains to be seen. And even though I've downloaded the episodes from the internet, I'm still looking forward to seeing it.

How sweet would it be if Firefly were to become a huge hit internationally? Still doubt Fox would ever admit, or even realize their stupidity, but it would be a beautiful thing if this just simmered over the next year until there was a really broad range of Firefly fans worldwide. Might even push the movie project further along.

I love it, I love it I love it. Why the $%*& did Fox not think the pilot was good enough to show first, it had everything. Action, intrigue and Mal. Great one liners and Mal. Characters that you could believe in and Mal. And did I mention Mal.

If you had been paying attention you would know that Fox is stupid. Unless they are reading this, in which case they are very intelligent people who will soon realize their mistake and pick the show up indefinitely.

Good question! It also explained why almost half the characters are there in the first place.
