Hi, I'm new here and I just loved the series. I came here after I found Firefly on Hulu. I was bored and was looking for something to watch. So I went on Hulu, clicked on Most popular shows and saw a show called Firefly. I clicked on it, selected the first episode and watched 1-7 till 2 am. The rest I finished next day before noon. I was looking for info about it, so I found wiki page and this site and got to know the tragedy of cancelation of the show and what followed it.

I would really like more people to be aware of FF and watch it. I've seen the thread about voting and I do vote sometimes. But is there another way to promote Firefly?

What about Hulu? I found Firefly, because it was in the Most Popular Shows list ( Hulu-TV-Popular shows). Right now FF is on the bottom lane of Today (which is default). I dont know how hulu calculates the most popular, but is it possible to push it higher? Maybe someone know more about it. I'm not sure if just clicking on episodes will count. But if this is just clicking, why not visit FF episodes on Hulu more often? Millions of people visit Hulu everyday (but dont forget, it's availiable only in US(maybe few other countries)). If FF will be closer to the top, more people will watch it.

The one problem that I see is Numbers. Not too many people here. And, as I said millions use Hulu. How many people vote for FF on richlabonte.net? 200 or so? And Hulu, probably, count only allows only 1 count from each IP adress, so, I've came up with few suggestions.

1) Spread the word to other fans, that you can watch FF free on Hulu. And the more you watch, the better.

2) It's free, email a link to friends.

3) Your ideas here.


So, what ya all think?

P.S. Don't forget, FF is already on the first page of Most popular shows - Today. And all time. If I'm correct FF is Number 16 -today, and number 10 all time. Out of 400 shows. Fans are watching it. But, I assume, not all fans know that you can watch it for free there if you don't have DVD and you don't want to spend money on it.
... I'm not even talking about those millions of people who don't know that FF exist at all.




So, what ya all think. You think we can push it to somewhere to the top of the list?


P.P.S. Dont throw anything at me. I'm just trying to helpl.

Hey there! We all love Firefly, that's why we are here.

But a good way to show your support is to go to the Universal HD Firefly forums and show your support. Universal is the only studio that is paying attention to Firefly and its following. Its been posted that the only reason Uni HD is showing Firefly on Saturdays is BECAUSE of all the fans on their message boards. And also remember that Universal own SciFi channel...

So get over there and post http://boards.nbcuni.com/universalHD/index.php?showforum=4 ...

And don't forget to be there tonight at 8pm eastern to support the "Bushwacked" shindig...

By the way KonstantinDK, I saw your awesome review of Firefly on Hulu the other day... Too bad it was removed along with the other 140+ glowing firefly reviews! I started a thread ( http://boards.nbcuni.com/universalHD/index.php?showtopic=1043) over at Universal HD speculating as to why Hulu would remove all of Firefly's reviews...
