I think I discussed with some of you here the idea of emailing Bravo's Brilliant But Cancelled website about why the hell the most Brilliant of all cancelled shows was not on their list (Only in a nicer less scary way

). I think I remember it, anyways among my many emails to spread the Word of the Verse I did send an only slightly menacing (joking!) email to Bravo. And look--- Does DANCE OF JOY. I know that a whole bunch of Browncoats probably emailed, prodding them ever so gently to not forget our Firefly, so isn't it great to see some "results" potentially in small part from an effort we made to promote the verse. It makes me feel happy. So here's our little shiny mention in a "Pop Autopsy" (that title however takes some of the happy away)

http://blogs.brilliantbutcancelled.com/pop_autopsy/

So go check it out. - Warning though, there was a hater posting in the comment section when I left, so try to avoid the temptation of feeding him/her to Reavers or ritualistic disembowelment and sacrifice.

I think that's the first time I've every used the word disembowelment, might even be making it up! Sorry for the randomness, just happy to see someone recognizing the verse.

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

No, disembowelment is certainly a real world, and quite a nasty way to die

Anyway, shiny!

I just gave them a schedule of the episodes airing to see how he justifies that.

Hey PhoenixRose. How are you doing, any more new recruits? Disembowel sure, but I'm mighty tired at the moment and wasn't sure if the "ment" was proper. I have on occasion been known to tweak and modify words.

See I even hijack my own threads.

*sigh* no new recruits thus far. Slow going on the whole setup, in fact. Blarg.

I posted a rant at this guy mlgm. I couldn't help myself. That he would say the DVD sales of Firefly don't compare to Family Guy! Um, excuse me? I just checked and Firefly is #23 on amazon right now, while every Family Guy set is in the low hundreds. 177, 188, 257 in one case. I mean come on, this guy is telling us we're not paying attention to stats, and he doesn't even know what the rankings are for these things!

Yep no new converts here either, although I'm pretty much a hermit right now. Leading a very nun-ish existence (minus that whole religion thing). I glad you gave it to mlgm, moron much. By the way I love the Grr Arg sign! Where did you come across that?

Bad Acting!? WTF

Apparently in addition to being a moron he's freebasing crack or some such substance that causes DELUSIONS and being completely disconnected with reality. I need PhoenixRose's GrrArg sign! Let the ritual sacrificing begin.

Sign was from photobucket. Wish I could take credit.
Yes, he's a moron. I was very rational with him, though, just pointed out where he was wrong and asked him questions. Let's see his response to that!

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

Glad to see BrilliantbutCancelled giving our BDHs some long overdue notice. Hopefully some new people will read it and give the series and the BDM a shot so we can reap some new converts out of it.

As to this mlgm guy, please notice that there are thirteen positive responses as compared to three negative (two of which are his.) If somebody doesn't like buttermilk, its useless to tell him how delicious buttermilk is. He's not going to like it.

Of course, what's aggrivating about this guy is that he's insisting that people who like buttermilk are fooling themselves, because buttermilk is awful and unpopular--and he's willing to misquote statistics to prove it.

Let a fool be a fool. Let's not dignify him by responding further to him. Just ignore him and post positive comments around him.

Great to see them give us a spot! I commented on this yesterday over there. I think the best way to handle the slightly deluded person over there is to just ignore him/her and their insane rant, because that's what it is and just give Firefly so many good comments, they're outnumbered.

That's what I look for when I read comments about something I come across. If there is one person in the mix constantly bashing the thing, and those comments are surrounded by good comments, I pretty much know that that one person is just trollish and ill informed.

Go write good comments, 'coats! Drown him out.

ETA: We were posting at the same time RocketJock!
