America loves a winner!


Pretty gorram good. Too bad F*X didn't have smart enough folks pitching their ads when the show as on air.

For those who missed it, it's a nice montage of actions scenes, fighting, hits, explosions,....which all ends with Wash's great line " Whacky fun. "



People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

" They don't like it when you shoot at 'em. I worked that out myself. "

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


Sounds way shiny. Link?


Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

UHD means Universal High Definition cable channel. I don't have it either :(

They are airing the episodes on that channel. Universal paid to have the Firefly film converted to high definition just for that purpose.

Yes, thank you, I knew that part, I was just wondering if there was a link to the promo anywhere.

PhoenixRose,

I found this http://www.universalhd.com/Series/

Don't think it is the same as the commercial. No Wash comment.

Scroll down for Firefly and click video.

Just saw Mal flying through the bar window!

There is also a forum and other stuff.
http://www.universalhd.com/Firefly/

There is a trailer on that page.

Thanks again, but I'm pretty sure that same one's up on youtube and doesn't include the 'wacky fun'. Oh well...

Click the link and it takes ya to the Universal HD page for Firefly. The video which starts playing is the ad I saw, complete with Wash's "Whacky Fun " line. It's set to the tune of The Blue Danube-reprise, from 2001 A Space Odessy.

Makes me feel all warm and tingly that Universal spent money to make it HD.

If only they'd make some more....
