Hey all,

My name's Art and I just thought I'd introduce myself. I joined FFF a while back but never posted anything until just recently, so I thought I'd say hi!

HI!

Anyway, I hadn't seen the series until I visited my friends earlier this year in TX who had it on DVD. I saw the first episode and was immediately enthralled with it. The writing was amazing, the characters were profound and intense, and the premise of the story was awesome. Now, I am a Star Trek/Wars fan, and I think this is as good if not better than the two. Star Trek dealt more with the "military" life. Although, it was not just an exploration of space, but of the human condition.

Firefly brings this exploration of the human condition to the common man. It's more nitty-gritty than Star Trek. Bottom line, it's just an amazing show and I am deeply saddened that it was canceled early - not even a whole season. I believe that had Firefly had the 2 hour season premiere first instead of last, it would have gone on for much longer.

Anyway, just thought I'd join up with the Browncoats in this fight - it may have been the losing side, but I'm not convinced it was the wrong one.

Now I am learning about scary.

Hi, Art/Ged, and welcome! We're glad you're here and have decided to post. It's good to hear from you. I completely agree with your opinion on what makes "Firefly" so great, and I suspect I won't be the only one.

Several other Browncoats should be along soon to join in welcoming you. Meanwhile, we hope to keep hearing from you, and together we WILL win the fight.

Welcome.

Seems to me you'll fit right in here.
I'm sure FollowMal will be along soon to give you your virtual browncoat. In the meantime, have some chocolate .

Thank you for the warm welcome everyone. It's nice to be around people who understand how awesome Firefly/Serenity is. I have been trying to propogate this series and movie among all my friends. Oh yes, our number will definitely be growing.

Welcome home, Ged!
Come on up to the galley and cluster
'round the buffet.
We're heating up a new batch of cheese
('cos we loves us some cheese), and
freshening up the punchbowl and the
fountains.
More strawberries being artfully arranged.
Fresh bao coming up.
Still trying to find some decent coffee...

Welcome Art/Ged!

Good heavens, you've had hot cheese and fresh bao!

Whew, Buns is serving up a feast tonight!

We're so glad you've joined us in this fight.
That is what it's gonna take is new numbers of folks coming in. We've got a whole Summer of Serenity coming up where we explore ways to do just that. You are living proof to us that there are more Browncoats out there.

You'll need your browncoat

*hands GED a browncoat from the storeroom*

Make yourself to home and talk often.
