Same here.

I know what you people are thinking: "What? They downloaded it? Holy shit, burn in hell, whatever."

But when you think about it, it is the only way you can check it out before the buy when you live in a country that doesn't show Firefly on tv at all. You just don't pay money (50 Euro* in my case) for something you never heard of before.

It is of course not my prefered way to fall in love with a tv show (since it is completely illegal and risky of course).

Sorry for beeing slightly Offtopic but I just wanted to point out that "downloading" is not necessarily a bad thing for a franchise.

(I have the bill if someone wants prove )

*Google says this is 59.25 U.S. dollar

Same here, I started watching on Scifi channel... and I bought 5 copies of Serenity dvd so far. So it looks like the Scifi run is bringing in new fans.

I only got into Firefly after seeing Serenity and now I'm experiencing this deep frustration. The series got cancelled way too prematurely. The series DVD left me inklin for so much more. I can't even describe my frustration. And what makes it worse is the fact that Whedon has resigned himself about the whole thing. He could at least offer conclusions to story lines.



First of all I just want to say: Patience, grasshopper! and second, I think you meant "hankerin" but said "inklin". A state of wanting or desiring is "hankerin". An inklin is a sort of intuitive feeling or clue about something as in "I got me an inklin that somethin terrible's 'bout to happen." or "He hasn't got an inklin of what's about to happen, tee-hee!"
You can find those words and more in "Webster's Dictionary of Good Ole Boy Colloquialisms"

JayTee is right. Patience! We all want more, more, more and someday I think it will come. Keep hoping, praying, being proactive, and someday our dreams will come to fruition. I just know it!
While we wait, though, just enjoy what we DO have.





Wacky fun!

This has got to be the most mangled post I've ever seen on this board. Just saying.

Now, watching the dvd, I think I can almost experience a hint of what they must have felt!
Their faith paid off.



I think the same. I know being a recent convert to the "verse" that it still got to me seeing her flying again in the BDM. I can only imagine how much it must have meant to the coats who have been here since the early days.

Must have been many a wet eye in the theater when she showed up for the first time.
