I have to confess to my FFF.net brethen - I have not watched an iota of the BDM or Firefly in like FOREVER. Because my life has imploded lately.

I throw myself on the mercy of this site. Forgive me for I know not what I have done!



I am on The List. We are The Forsaken and we aim to burn!

Watch three episodes of your choice and sing three Firefly themes and one Ballad of Jayne, and all will be forgiven.

or find a friend who has never seen them, but likes Sci-fi (or Westerns) invite them over for supper and put in the first DVD...

I'm in the middle of introducing a friend to Firefly and Buffy (regular Thursday night double feature w/snacks).

Because missionary work always qualifies you for sainthood, right?

Only if you share where you got it from. Being a new to this site, and the on-line 'verse, I haven't been able to find all the goodies myself.)

I'm sure even though you haven't watched in awhile, that the 'verse is on your mind. That's enough in my book.

if it weren't for my little iPod that has the BDS downloaded on it, i would have to say the same - but i do listen/watch while i work, exercise or just relaxing... i just don't have as much time to sit in front the tube these days, but having the episodes on the ipod has helped.

And hey, you are still coming to the site and posting, so that means something. You must still have that warm, fuzzy feeling about the 'verse - and hopefully that can help get you through the tough times....

here's hoping everything starts flying smoothly for you...

*Breathes a sigh of relief* Phew!

When I first read the title of the thread, I thought it would result in someone turning to the dark side. (Watching and enjoying reality tv.)

Seriously though, all is forgiven. (That's what real life is for. To get in a Firefly fan's way.)

Inviting a friend over to watch the show is a good idea.

*Nods* This is true.

I'm gonna get philosophical here.. Bear with me..

Does watching Firefly make us a Browncoat or do we make ourselves Browncoats?

(I'm struggling to think of the last episode that I rewatched before 'Safe', which was just a few days ago. I haven't watched a lot of the episodes for a while now either, but I still visit the forum.)

Visiting the site is proof that you are still a huge fan of the series. There's nothing to suggest that not watching an eppy after a while makes you any less of a fan.

Every episode is practically burned into our memories: the comedy, the drama, the action, all the great lines etc. That's what makes us Browncoats. We also keep it alive outside the medium that it was created in.

I hope that this made sense. It's been a long day.. My crazy time is over..

In any case, we're still glad to have you aboard!

So you remember my roommate that stole my Firefly DVDs and ran away to MN? Yeah, well when she came back she forgot disc 2!!!!!

Thank the Dark Lord she's going back to MN this weekend. Hopefully she remembers to bring it back for me!

Until then, I'll watch my other episodes and the movie and try and send some firefly karma your way.

To: Tristan and RugBug,

I believe the unaired pilot FutureMrsFillion is talking about is "Serenity"(Originally went unaired by FOX until after Objects in Space aired) on the Firefly DVD collection. But, then again I could be wrong

SASSALICIOUS- I offer you a candy cane and a licorice whip to beat your roommate with. Just like Sammy Davis Jr. sang, "The candyman can because he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good".

FMF: Let your long awaited hiatus from the 'verse not be in vain. Throw a party. Have some folk over and at least watch the pilot. And have a beer for me.

Jayne: I was gonna get me an ear too.

jossisagod,
I went to the link Penguin posted, and there are two versions of the pilot...the aired and unaired...seemed odd to me. I have the DVD (of course ), but had never heard of the "unaired" version of the pilot. I am intrigued!

if you look on the link Penquin listed it is at the bottom - it is Serenity Parts 1 and 2 - this is the one rejected by Fox.
Serenity 1 and 2 REVISED is what we all know as "The Pilot"

Hey FMF,

When the worlds got you down,
Don't let it make you frown,

Pop in a good dvd,
Such as FF/Serenity,

Or log on to the web and go where the fun never ends,
Like here at FFF.net with all your browncoat friends

Hope your day gets a whole lot better

Perhaps your life's been imploding lately *because * you haven't gotten your regular dosage? If not...hey. The Whedonverse for medicinal purposes.

I prescribe at least one episode per 48 hour period until your life no longer implodes. Take with or without food and drink. Side effects include tears, laughter, tears of laughter, and increased impatience with your own inability to make snappy comebacks.

Myself, I'd like to thank the BDM for giving me some fix, because other than rewatching Jaynestown once to see if it was true that Higgins was Logan on 24, i haven't watched the show in nearly 7 months. 7 MONTHS!
Reason being that i had lent the first disc away to a potential convert, who liked it, but never gave it back until last week, and i can't rewatch the show without starting from the top.
Hopefully now i can get back to watching it oh-so-frequently now.

I'm babbling like a moonbrain.

Dogulas Adams might disagree with that, if he were alive, or wrong, that would work too. (He was an atheist you see.)

Still good concept.

I tend to try to look at it like this:
The bad in life is there so that you can appreciate the good. After all if you were happy all the time you wouldn't know to enjoy it.

You can take that as religion, logic, or insanity, but it does make sense if you think about it in the right frame of mind.

I'm currently in level 7 of hell and on my way down, I walk through the woods of bleeding trees and I have waded the river of boiling blood. (There is a lot of blood in hell.)

I have walked barefoot on the burning sands of those who are violent against god and passed through the city of Dis.

You honestly think you can make me beg with a whip?

Besides that you'd have to reach me first, you'd never make it past the dogs in circle 3 if you think a mere whip is bad.
