Like a favorite disease...it is spreading. I went to belly dance class last night, and as we were leaving, one of the girls GASPED rather loudly and proclaimed "You have FIREFLY!?!?!"
Our instructor had the set sitting on her desk plain as day. The instructor had just borrowed it from a friend of hers. This (naturally) sparked a discussion between me, the other student and the teacher. Of the 3 of us, I was the only one who saw the series when it was originally aired. The other two had been lent copies by friends. I explained the story about the series and its sudden but inevitable betrayal and they were shocked since the series was, and I quote..
"The best TV show I have ever seen!"
Anyway, some of the other students are now curious and want to get copies (yeah!) and they are all anxious to get their hands on the movie DVD (YEAH!)
Looks like Firefly is contagious, and passed by casual contact :)

LOL
unfortunately it has been a slow moving virus,
but I have faith that there is no cure....
Sci-fi channel is going to continue showing 'Firefly'
so I think that more and more people will continue to become fans.

You betcha it's speading.
I got a call from my father-in-law wanting to know if *we* had seen this great movie called Serenity. First, he rarely goes to a theater to see a movie and now he's going again before it leaves. When he found out there was a TV show and *it* was out on DVD, it went to the top of his wish list for Christmas.

Definatly contagious. I bought the box set and was "casually" viewing it in the living room at the collective I live at. My flatmates came in and out of the room while I was watching.
The very next day I come home and find them glued to the TV, they kidnapped my box and was having a marathon...
Some people seems to have delayed reactions :P

Yeah, my dad liked the movie too -- and he's really picky. He even laughed at parts, and he's got a very odd sense of humor (ie doesn't laugh at much) so I know it's good. Let's keep spreading it!
*coughs firefly germs on everyone*
I give to you the Seeker of Serenity, the Valkyrie Warrior, the Gourmet Cook and the Truth Scoper.

It might be spreading slowly, but it is spreading. How many cancelled tv shows can say that, or that they had a major motion picture made?
All we need to do is keep right on doing what we have been doing; spreading the word. We keep loaning those DVD sets, talking it up on the internet, introducing everyone we know to the show. When the Serenity DVD comes out we buy as many copies as we can, some to loan, some as gifts, and a couple for ourselves.
Keep the faith people. Like Joss said, she's got legs. She'll keep flyin'!
