Man. I cannot believe I haven't seen this show until now. My friend loaned (He'll never get it back) me the TV series on DVD. What a great show. Question: Why in the world is this not still on? It's awesome! Great fun and great writing.

The truth is just what it simply is.

ROBINHOOD

Because the f*x tv network is full of morons is why. It was more sabotaged from the off rather than cancelled. Showing Ep2 1st, playing the rest in completely the wrong order (destroying the continuity of the storyline) shifting it's time slot about every which way, advertising it as, more or less, a comedy it would seem. I could go on. Get Serenity on DVD if you can't get to see it on the bigscreen.
Good to have a new member by the way :^)

Don't feel bad...I only became aware of it a week before Serenity opened, and now I can't get enough of it. You're not alone in being "behind the times", but like they say; "Better late than never!"

Oh, another convert. Hey that is great. Welcome aboard. You'll find it very nice here. We'll help you through your pain.

Kaylee: You're nice, too.
Mal: No, I'm not. I'm a mean old man.

Don't forget to call him "Sir." He likes that.

Welcome to the bittersweet world of the Browncoats! So much to love, so much to fret about...

Oh, and a word of wisdom: don't even dream of keeping your friend's DVD set. Browncoats can get a mite tetchy about that.

Welcome! Be good and return the loaner set. Now by 2 more sets-- One to watch and one to loan out. :) Or you can do what I do, and invite friends over then tie them down and make them watch your disks with you. (I don't loan mine out-- I know I wouldn't get them back!)

The 'verse is a shiny place and Browncoats are a friendly bunch. Glad you found us!

Now that's not a bad idea. Except maybe we could do it to the SciFi channel, to let them see how awesome this show is, and pick it up, or to Joss's home to show him how many shiny and pretties he has converted. Are there a million of us?

Speaking of our growing numbers. Is there any idea of how many Browncoats there are on this site alone? I have a feeling that globally in all the other fan sites our numbers are vast indeed

I'd like to know too, how many fans have joined recently, because of the movie and because of SciFi airing the show on Fridays. Seems like quite a few.

You 'spose someone is keeping track of that?

Seems like there should be a way of counting heads, so to speak. I joined on last week (12/12/05) after lurking for awhile. I'm new to Firefly having never seen any of the programs until last July. I think this site ought to have a permanent "newbie" thread, a place where all new comers can introduce themselves easily & all the old timers can welcome them aboard. As it is you find newbies de-lurking in many various threads. I'm sure alot of them get missed & go away with an unshiny feeling.

I hope that someone who keeps track and has the ability notices your idea and does it. That would be great.

I think the future of this franchise relies on how many new folks want more of it, so it'd be nice to know for all of us who have been here awhile. It's encouraging and fun to meet new folks!

I was greeted very warmly when I arrived and I hope you were too, and I love it here. I hope you will be as happy as I am!

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

Welcome to the site & the fanbase Kstarheel. Glad to have you aboard.

Be sure to introduce the show to everyone you can get to sit still long enough to watch it. Some you may have to tie down.
