The pilot/last episode of "Firefly" was broadcast 4 years ago today. While it's kinda depressing, it's also amazing to see how many folks are still holding the line and keeping faith 4 years later.

Wow, has it really been that long? It seems less, but then again heartache can last an awful long time.

I've only been a Browncoat for one of those years - I feel like I missed so much!

Just 'cause you came to the war late don't mean you can't have your scars. :)

No taps. It still ain't over (even Whedon says so).

For something to tide you over, we at www.stillflying.net have just released our latest episode.

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

Yesterday was a sad anniversary date for Browncoats indeed. At the same time it also marked the birth of the online community's movement to save the show. That campaign led to the release of the dvd set, eventually the comics, the movie, and all the rest. It may have marked the deathknell of the show, but it marked the beginning of something more beautiful and more powerful.

That being said, I am still here. I have been a browncoat since the Train Job aired. I have been here for four years and I am not going anywhere. As a matter of fact, I'll be the last one here when Haken turns out the lights.

Yet ironically, the date coincides pretty much with the announcement that Fillion is going to be back on Fox. Funny how things work out!

You only put 20 words describing us Browncoats "it's also amazing to see how many folks are still holding the line and keeping faith 4 years later." they are put beautifully.

I haven't been here but slightly over 1 year, but I'm not going anywhere either, Browncoat1 and I'll be right here with you when Haken flips that switch.

I think I can saftely say all the Browncoats who are still on the boards will be there at the end which obviously won't be for another 15 years or so after our 2 sequels & 7 seasons of Firefly,minimum.

Okay. I can't resist any more.

It was four years ago today
Captain Tighpants taught the crew to play
They've been breaking into banks and vaults
But their guaranted to raise a smile
So let me introduce to you

I miss Firefly. BIG TIME

That this show was canceled just proves that the world is bad and that evil is everywhere and that it's home office is FOX (and WB, I mean the canceled Angel)

I wish you all a Merry Christmas! Keep fighting!
