>>>I'll go you one better! Let's order about 600 tons of fresh horse manure and have it dumped at FOX's main studio gate. The note would read: "Here's another load of crap for your Fall Line-up!"<<<

I LOVE this idea, where do I sign up?

What is wrong with FOX?

To borrow a quote from Con Air...

"My first thought would be... a lot."

Btw, apples idea
Best piss-off-for-fux idea EVER!

Gorrammit, FREMDFIRMA, you beat me to it! When I saw the title, my first thought was "If I may quote Cameron Poe..."

At least they haven't cancelled The Inside. That I know of. Yet.

It would be set to arrive on opening day so that even if they wished to raise a stink the movie would be in theaters and the stink might drive attendence up. Which si a good thing.

TANSTAAFL




You mean the address for FOX NETWORK, not Fox TV Studio. Fox TV studio was behind Firefly, the network wasn't.

GWEK:
The Inside is AWESOME (It has to be...Jayne is in it! )
I hope FOX doesn't mess with this show!
Do any of you watch Hell's Kitchen?

I like The Inside, but still have mixed feelings on it. Lot of potential, good cast, etc, but it hasn't quite come together for me yet. Plus, I'm getting sick of Rebecca getting abducted almost every episode...

I have this week's on tape, but only saw a few minutes of it. From what I saw, it looks the tone was a little more humorous, but still pretty danged dark, which is cool.

Why do so many TV comedies have the husband as some FAT LOSER and the wife is a HOTIE?
How often do you see this in real life? NEVER



Personally, I love "Family Guy". If you're going to discount a show because the creator took character names from his home town, then I guess "The Simpsons" is off your list, too.
Matt Groening grew up in my home town of Portland, OR and named several characters after local streets. As for the fat guy with the pretty wife, you can trace that all the way back to "The Honeymooners". There's nothing new under the sun, friend.

Let's see, there's our beloved Firefly, then there's of course Family Guy, and Futurama, and Dark Angel, and what else? Arrested Development is hanging by its fingernails. I know there's more...

Every well-bred petty crook knows that the small, concealable weapons always go to the far left of the place setting.

Oddness:
Street Names are fair game !
Now that you mentioned the Simpsons ........ I must admit that I am getting tired of the same old stuff.
Bart pulls the same rude tricks, Homer is, if it is possable, getting dumber and so on.......
This is what I love about Firefly! It is fresh and funny. I can totally see guest apperances from characters from Joss' other shows. Buffy as a registered companion , Angel as a mercenary , zander as Simon's evil twin brother and Gunn as Zoe's little brother The Show totally Rocks!

Wow, what part of "comedy is subjective" wasn't clear enough for you?
We should try to be a litte more polite about other peoples opinions.

...cause Justice is the one thing you should always find.
