My exact words when I finished watching it for the 1st time also.

If you read the archives, you will find that almost everyone here has said the same thing as you.

Welcome to our love, welcome to our loss, welcome to the Firefly Forum.

Welcome ANewVibe. Welcome to the love and heartache that is Firefly fandom. The only thing I can say to make you feel better is that you are not alone.

We're quite a family here and we're glad to have you.

We want more of the 'verse, kinda goes without saying, so be sure to share it with others so we can have more folks loving it and asking for more.

Isn't the pain awful? It might help a little if you buy Serenity when it's out - just as a final hit of Firefly... but it's so depressing knowing that there's no more.

I still remain hopeful that one day, in the future, there will be a revival.

We feel your pain.

Welcome to the site! Please stick around and discuss the ‘verse with us. And to help soften the blow of cancellation, there is some great additional material out there, in case you aren’t aware.

If you want more of the ‘verse, there is of course the Big Damn Movie, Serenity, out on DVD (in case you haven’t heard of it

). And there’s the “Serenity” comics, collected in a Trade Paperback that’s just out; they’re co-written by Joss Whedon and cover the time between the series and the movie. Then there’s the River Tam Sessions, short viral marketing clips that Joss filmed in the lead up to the BDM. Each is only one or two minutes long and they can be found here: www.session416.com. They purport to be security footage of a series of “sessions” between River and a doctor at the Academy. They’re fun and fascinating to watch. Finally, there’s an unfilmed “Firefly” shooting script, “Dead or Alive,” here on FFF.net at http://www.fireflyfans.net/feature.asp?f=45.

And after watching you ran right over to the computer to see if anyone, anywhere, someone....had more information on Firefly right?

Ouch...its like feeling the pain for the first time again just thinking about it. (but Im still a Newbie...spiral into addiction birthdate: Dec 25th, 2005)

I almost feel bad turning anyone on to FF....it has to come with a warning..."at the end of viewing this DVD set you may experience pain, anger, suffering, wanting, yearning and the excessive need to spend your life searching for more Firefly"

Why did they cancel it? (Correct me if Im wrong anyone) because FOX put it on Friday nights (always a risky move for a new show) played the episodes out of sequence order(confusing viewers)..., and consistanly preempted it for the baseball play offs/World Series.(even if you wanted to watch, you couldnt find it)

No one watching=off the air.

oh...and PS

Just start over from the begining...then watch again with all the commentary...then do that again....and so on and so on

You catch something new everytime. My Mom (jeez i feel funny saying that...Im 35 already! but shes cool and obviously has some good taste) even watches it with the subtitles on "just in case she missed anything"

Yup there are a whole lot of us, and the numbers always going up.

And I strongly suggest watching with the subtitles, I find that some jokes just are more funny when read then heard. Point of fact, watch the Train Job with subtitles, just trust me.

Oh, and u can always take up knitting and make yourself a Jayne Hat, I find them very theraputic.

We should have a knitting forum here there are a few of us that knit and it is always fun to trade patterns.....::wanders away getting even farther and farther off subject::

I had a very similar reaction. Don't feel too bad though. We might have a been a little late but we made it. Be happy you're here now. Be happy and proud that from now on... You (like all of us) will be spreading the phenomena we all know as Firefly/Serenity. Welcome!!!!

That just happens to be my catchphrase for Firefly, Anewvibe. Every time I finish an episode I say "Why did they cancel that show again?" And everyone seems to agree with me.

No, I am not insane, I am crazy. Thank you for asking.
