Against my better judgement I started to watch another FOX show.

Keen Eddie in my view is one of the better midseason introductions, Funny, Smart, and a dog so ugly he is adorable.

Now I read Fox has put it on hiatus with five unairred episodes.

Damn you to hell Fox....

I even set my TV so I don't get Fox proper,

caught the show on a local station, didn't even know it was a Fox show until the second or third ep I watched.

I misread this as "I even sent my TV to Fox proper" and I got to wondering, what if we just sent our tvs to fox. COD, even. With notes that said, "Well, I don't need this anymore."

I can.

I can also imagine us doing our Blue Sun U-Day sit on at Fox hq and maybe sitting around on old tv's. Or making a big show of giving them away. The Great U-Day TV Giveaway! "Here you go, sir. Since Fox canceled Firefly (Titus, Greg the Bunny, Family Guy, insert your own show here as long as it's not produced by David E. Kelly) I don't so much need this anymore."

It was slated as just a summer show.

I like this show alot as well, and have been expecting Fox to cancel it.

I am thoroughly disgusted with the Fox channel.

I'll show ya' how to use the emoticon if you tell me how I can get a cool picture next to my screen name. Or is the die cast? Did I need to do that when I chose my psuedonym? Damn, I hope not.

Anyway, type the punctuation mark colon, then the word that describes the emotion that you want from the list to the left, then type another colon. For example
[colon]disappointed[colon] Be sure to type this where you want your emoticon to appear. For instance: Hey Fox

Good luck with it, now.

My brackets didn't seem to have "submitted" with the rest of my tutorial. Just pretend that these semi-colons are actually real life colons.

;disappointed;

That's how it should look, only with colons, of course.

Good luck. Oh, yeah...Hey Fox

Just go to the main page and click on 'My Firefly' at the top of the page. On the My Firefly page at the left will be a column that says 'Member Options' and under that will be a link to 'Edit Profile'. From there it will give you the options to pick an avatar enter a tagline and bio plus a few other things. Through the miracle of this site once you change your options all of your old posts when brought up will have all the new information. Neat huh?

Maybe someone should start a new network, and play nothing but shows FOX had cancelled.

Can you picture that???

6:00 The Tick

6:30 Family Guy

7:00 Firefly

etc, etc

That would just kick ass.......

Well what were you expecting? I'm no genius but after having this done to me more times than I care to count I'm no longer shocked by it. F*** fox. F*** 'em in their stupid a***s with all manner of cacti and fire ants.

And Sarah, if I send fox my TV I wouldn't be able to watch my firefly eps again and again. I am all for unleashing the browncoat army on them though.

No one has mentioned Briscoe County Jr. Another browncoat fighting the good fight. And Cleopatra 2525, which wasn't a fox show, but I am sure that somehow the stupidity of fox still caused it's cancellation through executive retardation osmosis.

Why does fox put ANY good shows on?
Somebody on their staff most have the cajones.
Mostly their programming stinks but occasionally....

Ok, GINOBIFFARONI, you stole my idea! I thought of that last night while watching Keen Eddie!

You think all us browncoats together would have the clout to start our own network?

Think of the viewers we'd already have!!

"Blog" is short for "weblog." It's like an online diary or journal. Check out www.blogger.com or www.livejournal.com to learn more.

Hey, if Cleopatra hadn't been cancelled, we'd all be looking at a different Zoe. I'm kind of glad Gina Torres was available for Joss...

Find someone to buy out TNN,

drop that Spike TV thing, and call it Browncoat TV

either buy the rights to the shows, or better yet throw on lookalike shows as not to pay Fox anything, ( same writers and production companys, just slightly different )

Family Dude

The flea

Laterarama

HorseFly

Lonesone Gunslingers

etc

It could work...
