We're getting pummelled. Whether it's because we just found out about this poll, or because so many of us realize that a return to t.v. is a lost cause.....I dunno. Either way, I voted.

Am I the only one that thinks it's REALLY wrong of Futurama to be that far ahead of Firefly in the polls? *sigh* Well, I've cast my vote.

I accidentally voted for Farscape, and it won't change the totals when I revote for firefly. D'OH!!!

Can we start a poll about what shows we think we should replace with Firefly or others from the list?

Well, I'm all right. - Mal


Superior numbers.

At the moment Firefly's 4 votes behind Futurama, 247 behind Farscape, and 612 behind Angel.

This poll doesn't mean much since it's probably cookie based, which means somebot could flood it.

The IMDb poll at http://www.imdb.com/poll/results/2004-06-23 is user based, which makes it a little less "Diebold"ish.

I'd sure like to see Sports Night back on the air as well. But since one of the stars is working elsewhere, I'd say it's not going to happen.

Funny, I have the second pair of DVDs in my briefcase as I type. Over lunch, if I finish my book, I crank up a DVD, and Sports Night is my current series.

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


I agree that Sports Night is a great show, but it did get two full seasons, and most of those others got at least that much air time as well, and of course Angel got five years and Farscape four.

Firefly, Freeks and Geeks & The Tick are the ones that were yanked the quickest. Of course you can say I'm not being very objective about it, but IMO Firefly is the one on the list that had the most potential to be classic but wasn't given a chance.

Also, I just voted for it a second time, so there's no reason we can't get its numbers up much higher.

It looks like the Angel fans are on a crusade. They're numbers are increasing faster than ours.

I'm not too surprised - Angel was just cancelled, and since Firefly has been off the air approx. 2 years, I'd say we're doing o.k.

Of course I'd still like to see Firefly kick ass.
