Hoping to rally a bit more support for Firefly/Serenity on the SciFi.com Poll. We are behind, but just barely. (30% to 29%) Today is the last day. Let's take this the last mile and see if we can win this. I'd love to send SciFi a message!!!

Who's with me?!?

That there's a lot of votes! With 18,926 votes in, we're still at 29% to B5's 30%. (And being a fan of JMS's B5 universe, it was a pretty gorram hard vote - but I'm definitely a browncoat!

)

Yep, we gotta really rock this vote. Thanks for posting it!

Uh... No.

In my opinion, this isn't about winning. It's about being right. If we as a community can't win a simple poll like this legitimately, then we don't deserve to win it at all.

Just my opinion - feel free to disagree with me. I just happen to think that we're better than that...

I have voted, but it's still at 29%.
I think it's amazing that even though we only got 14 episodes of Firefly, it's considered by so many people to be the best when it's compared to shows like B5, which had several seasons to develop a real story line.

Let's not be excludin' people, that'd be rude.

Voted, still 29%.

On a somewhat related topic, Serenity lost the BOM (Box Office Mojo) User Rating number one spot today, replaced with the former king, Star Wars (1977). That's another thing you can boost if you'd like. Remember rating the film less then an A+ would only hurt its position.

Popularity wise, Serenity still leads the way at Box Office Mojo as the most clicked movie. It has lead the top spot for a very long time now with the small exception of when Saw II (ugh) was number one for what I believe was less than 24 hours.

The top 3 vote getters have at one time or another been my favorite program. And all 3 were cancelled.

Things do not bode well for Battlestar Galactica.
