Anybody know which Adam Sandler movie rerun knocked out Firefly for a week in 2002? I keep seeing it referenced, but not the name of the film. Search function didn't get me what I wanted.

Anybody know? Thanks.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.


Not sure about the Sandler movie, but another preemption was for The Brady Bunch Goes to the White House, or some such garbage.

Hey dude, don't mess with The Brady Bunch! Actually the Brady Bunch gang and the Firefly gang are very similar...their roles are almost interchangeable :
Mike Brady : Captain Mal
Carol Brady : Inara
Alice : Kaylee
Sam the Butcher : Wash
Bobby Brady : Simon
Cindy Brady : River
Greg Brady : Atherton
Marcia Brady : Saffron
Peter Brady : Shepherd Book

So all it would have taken back in 2002 was a little imagination when Firefly got pre-empted, and everyone could have been satisfied.

So Carol Brady was a whore? And where's Zoe? *Fake childs voice* "Mommy why isn't there a Zoe on the Brady Bunch?"

Ok, ok lame joking aside. I have absolutely no clue which Adam Sandler movie it was. I'll take a guess though.... Big Daddy?

OH NO...Not the Brady Bunch! Please, no more comparisons to that show!
