I just recently converted two people to the wonderfull world that is called Firefly.

I was on vacation with my brother, and a buddy of ours who came with us, asked me if I had seen the trailer for some movie called "Serenity". I almost fell down! I was like, "Hell yea!!". He asked me what it was? Of course I preceed to tell him all about Firefly, and thats where the movie came from. I let him borrow my DVD's ta see what he thought of the show.

About a week after we got back from vacation (yesterday), he calls me, and says he's in love with the series, and cant believe the show got cancled. He was saying he wanted ta see more, there was no more. He felt empty! lol Well, he's VERY happy theres a movie coming. He let my brother borrow the dvds, and now my brother calls me today, and is in love witht the show! I plan on showing them to a friend of mine, and convert her too. hehe

Ta bring this to a close, it's really fun converting people into Firefly fans. Everyone who seems to watch it, ends up loving it. Swear, the show was way ahead of it's time. Thats why I think it was canceld. Plus it wasnt some cruddy reality tv show or Law and Order spin off. lol Anway, just wanted ta share that with ya'll. Thanks for reading!

Converting people to grey coats,
Jorge

To Jav7469-

That story you shared was touching. But I agree, converting people into Firefly fans is really fun and rewarding. I've converted my uncle (who is greatly obsessed with it now) and aunt, who are going to go with me when the movie debuts. PsychicRiver and I have converted an online friend, and I hope to gather some more friends and family members before September. Its our job, as fans, to ensure the movie gets the ratings it deserves. And if that means recruiting, then so be it.

As for getting the word out on the airings on Sci Fi, I'll be posting up the posters on my blogs and myspace.

Sorry for the newbie questions here but I only heard about Serenity because of the HD trailer on apple.com. Then someone mentioned Firefly in passing to my comment about wanting to see Serenity. Then I was watching the ghost hunters marithon on sci-fi today and there was the commerical for Fiirefly being on this friday. It's already set in my DVR.

Just wanted to know if this was going to be starting with the first episode of season 1? Is there more than one season?

Don't want to start something in the middle if I can just go find the DVD.

Thanks,
Singinius

All the info I've seen indicates that Sci-Fi will start with the first hour of the two hour pilot (also called Serenity but different from the movie coming out Sept. 30th) and should continue in order.

Sadly there was less than a full season, and yes the DVD set is available with lots of Shiny extras, including 3 unaired episodes (Sci-Fi will show these too I think).

Oh, and Welcome Aboard. good to see the trailer is doing it's job.

Welcome! I think this Friday at 7pm (6pm central) will be the 1st hour of the 2 hour pilot. I'm a little disappointed they couldn't show the whole 2 hour pilot initially, but I think I heard that they will re-show the 1st hour before next week's installment, so those who start watching next week can get the whole 2 hours at once. There's a lot of background and build-up in the first hour, and HUGE pay-offs in the 2nd hour, so I wonder if people will be frustrated by only getting to see the first half...oh well, it's only a week, right?

Jayne, your mouth is talkin. Might want to look into that.
