... fully loaded, safety off...

Welcome Thrasher! Yeah, F*X kind of missed the whole badassedness perspective of the show completely.

Keep the faith and spread the word (loaning out dvds if you have any spares is a great way) - there are tens of thousands that would feel like you if only they knew about the show!

Welcome home, Thrasher! You're #33846 to
sign on here, and it's right shiny to see
you aboard.
Mudder's and strawberries for all newbies
who declare themselves, and then that trip
up topside to the galley for the questioning
of the buffet.
Cheese is hot, and the mangos and pineapples
are being prepped as we stand here.
Ice-planets are in the cooler, bottom shelf.

And -- please do not step on ShipsCat or into
her dish.

There's probably someone around here who can fit
you with the requisite virtual browncoat...I haven't
the key to the locker.

Hi Thrasher.
Not only did fox not "get it", but I think they also missed the "potential" of where this style of Sci-Fi could go. It was an excellent breading ground for great story telling, perfect casting and it left you wanting more. And no aliens to deal with

You could really feel you were part of the drama.
It was a real shame then and it even holds true today....

Welcome aboard.

Is there another online source for on-line comics? Not on myspace? I'm at work and they've blocked that site.

Thanks for the link to the book...I'm enjoying it.

I, too, just began watching (loving) Firefly and I can't seem to stop.

And now I'm reading fan fiction.

The line in my signature? I say that to my clients. (I'm a drug and alcohol counselor with homeless addicts). They love it.

Nope. It is a deal Dark Horse has with myspace. I think it is only 8 pages. Serenity:The Other Half will be printed as part of graphic novel a couple of months from now.

Guess I was hangin' with you, Thrasher! I also just watched all the eps online and then just had to see the movie. I never saw the show when it was on TV. It kinda doesn't matta anyhow 'cause the PTB always cancel anything I like. They should hire me to give my heartfelt opinion about the new shows, and anything I love they don't have to put on because it'll just be cancelled after one season. ("Friends" lasted 10 years because I never watched it.) Just sayin'.

All are welcome! Truer words have never been written - awesome indeed!

I think that Fox didn't really believe in this show and didn't give it a chance. I watched the show when it first aired and it was hard to keep up with Fox's preempting and schedule changes.

I also noticed that when the movie came out none of the stars of the movie appeared on anyof the talk shows to promote it. Curious indeed. But here we are 6 years after the series demise and 3 years after the movie and we Browncoats are ever vigilant.

Welcome aboard!

Shiny! Let's be bad guys!

I also really enjoy the Official Visual Companions to Firefly (Vol 1 & 2) as well as Serenity.

Same thing happened for the original Star Wars.
