The addiction is spreading.
Is there a support group?
Shouldn't "Firefly" and "Serenity" clearly be labeled as ADDICTIVE!!!???
At the very least, they shouldn't be viewed without a prescription, and a team of trained withdrawal professionals standing by to assist us.
Now, if only the execs at Fox (or Universal Pictures) become addicted. That would be sweet.
(Maybe they know the cure, and have used it on themselves.)

After watching the Serentiy DVD last week, I really wanted to buy some Serentiy t-shirts, and after doig a quick online search, stumbled across FireflyFans.net. Didn't find the shirts that I was looking for

But you ARE a part of the crew.
I watched the series when they came on tv the
first time, but that changes nothing.
I think we all went throught what you're living now. You may want to join a Browncoat group now and organise shindigs... Make fresh bao...

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome.
I couldn't help myself. I just got finished with the rest of the season. It's 6:30am again and well, I feel a little heartbroken.
I thought by the end of the series that I would feel the same joy that I felt after I saw the movie. But instead, It puts me in great pain to know that Firefly is no more...
It's a strange feeling to have your emotions change so drastically in such a short period of time.
I actually feel lucky to have stumbled accross such a beautiful thing.
I enjoyed every episode (some more then others) and I will prolly end up watching them more times then healthy. 
I suppose the only thing I can do now is to reccomend it to all my friends and family!
I truely hope to see Firefly rise from the ashes like a phoenix. And I hope more people like ourselves can learn to appreciate it.
Joss Whedon, You have created a masterpiece.
Thank You.

welcome, and now you are in the same boat as we are. i felt the exact same way (except i was a fan before the movie, so it was slightly different). it feels so bad to know that Firefly is no more, but like i've said many times, i'm much happier having known and loved it. sometimes i wish i hadn't since i crave more, but i'm glad i'm here with the rest of the Browncoats. like you said, spread the word about Serenity and Firefly. it is infectious. so far everyone i've introduced to it loves it. something this good needs to be shared. and while some may say it is impossible, it is also what we need to do if we have any hope of seeing more from our beloved crew and 'verse. the more fans, the better. after all, we are mighty.

Welcome, Consequence!
Isn't it the most amazing feeling?! I actually was in tears when I got done and realized what I had found, how much I was in love and that there wouldn't be anymore. I sat stunned for awhile.
But we have this shiny place! And I'm so proud to be a Browncoat!
It IS like a virus and will spread if you share with family and friends ( and strangers and co-workers ). That will make new fans who will be in love and demand more right along with us.
I think that is our path forward... it makes me feel better anyway. That and watching the movie and show over and over.
You know I'm still doing that all these weeks later... I watch the movie or an ep everyday. I've never done that before in my life with a show or movie. Speaks to the power of Joss' writing and our crews acting. It's good to be in love!

welcome to all three of you! its soo exciting meeting new fans,
yes if you love this show (which I can feel the love in here you guys get it!) share it wtih friends family and co-workers, firefly and serenity make great presents for birthdays, weddings, etc...
*note* office conference rooms on lunch hour make great viewing locations and if you provide food people will come.
Welcome to the 'verse, i think you will find the browncoats to be some of the friendliest fans out there and the most dedicated as well.

Book: Oh, dont get me wrong. I gave him a hell of a fight
Jayne: Epic i'm guessing

My Top Three Episodes would go like this.
1. Objects in Space (I Loved This Episode!)
2. Out of Gas
3. Serenity
(Honorable Mention: Bushwacked)
Although I enjoyed almost all of them... I only found one episode that I didn't feel fit in with the series. That episode was "Heart of Gold".
I found the part where Pedaline shot Rance while holding their baby in her arms was almost as disturbing as Rance making the girl perform favors for him on the balcony in front of the town.
I just felt that this episode went the wrong direction as the others. Maybe a bit too vulgar for my likings.
I'm sure over time I'll start to like more episodes over others but I think my top 3 is set in stone.
I'm real greatful for a place like this. I feel like I don't have anyone to talk to about firefly that understands where I'm comming from.
I've already reccomended Firefly and Serenity to some friends and co-workers. I almost think I talk too much about it lol, But that won't stop me from spreading the word.
But anyways... I've been lacking sleep over the past couple days... I'm glad I don't have to work tomorrow!
Time for rest.
