I discovered the show about 3 weeks ago because the dvd set was on sale at Walmart for $19. Ive never done anything like this before..

Since then ive just fallen in love with the entire world of Firefly. I felt like I had to reach out to you guys. Ive grown attached to each and every character, I finally watched Serenity tonight and was sad to see a few characters...leave us.

Just wanted to say hi to everyone, how many people are registered here? What do I do to become an official "browncoat"

Wheres everyone from?

I think I can safely say that you're already there.

Welcome aboard.

The box set for 19 dollars?! I hate you so much right now. I think I paid about 50.00. Anyway, I suppose I can't exactly welcome you to the board because I just recently registered as well! I've become very attached to the characters also, moreso than I have in any other work of fiction than I can think of (at least right now). Fairly recently I got through all the episodes and consumed every extra feature I could find on the DVDs, including the commentaries. I just downloaded both the Firefly and Serenity soundtracks and purchased the Serenity visual companion but I need more, MORE!! I need to watch all the episodes again and again so I can further absorb all the character moments or lines I didn't catch or the small details of the ship and multi-cultural worlds that make the universe feel so "lived in" and real! Anyway, sorry for this freakish babbling. Welcome to the board anyway and check out Browncoat Radio!

Woo Hoo! We have another Browncoat!

Welcome Browncoat!

Now a word of caution: You will soon be quoting the 'verse in real life. This is a fact of life, it will happen eventually, you can not escape it.

I don't think there is One Big Browncoat registry. Browncoats are independant, so it makes sense to not be in the files. But if you look around where you live, you might find shindigs being organised and the like. Last shindig I went to, we watched our three favorite episodes and someone brought fresh Bao.

You finally made it. Because you said the magic word. It's what keeps us flying...

Welcome,

I know what you mean. a friend turned me on to the Series. You are now in the middle of something big, just watch what happens next. Every person I know who bought or was given the Series box set has become a fan. Now make sure you show someone else the series and maybe some day we will have a series again...

I just bought my Firefly DVD box set a couple of days ago myself... for $60. But it was worth it, not to mention that I'd been keeping an eye out for it and hadn't been able to find it anywhere else.

I'm only fairly new to the fandom myself (I only just joined this site about half an hour ago too). I discovered Firefly through the movie and immediately fell in love.

Welcome here, we're weird.

Ok, here's the deal, you are one of us. There is no official thing, but since you saw the show, loved the show, and sought us out you are one of us already,

Welcome to the group and please stay.

On the other hand if you want to feel like you earned your title, or you just want to see more of the verse, there is something you can do.

I don't like feeling like a sales guy, but since you're new you might not know, whether or not we ever see our crew again depends on the DVD sales. So if you want more, and I think we all do, you need to get everyone you can to watch and buy the DVDs. Even more so you need to get it so they will do the same, that way it doesn't stop with you, it just spreads outward.

That is all any of us can do, and that is what all of us need to do.

Ok, lecture's over.

We all did. That's what ties us together.

You'll find that the people who had the same experiacne are many and varried, but all of the people here are nice people who will be happy to answer any questions you might have, respond to any theories you have, just say interesting things and do other stuff.

This is a lot like a very large family, and you're a part of it now.

I seem to remember getting mine very cheap at a cost of $39.

I can't speak for everyone. As for myself, Maine.

You are already wearing your Browncoat. Welcome. Now you need a Tshirt :) I get so many questions asked in work about my 'I deal in black market beagles' T shirt its untrue. I then show them my back with the Firefly logo. 'Watch it' I say 'It will improve the quality of your life'. :D

I am from Liverpool in the UK. I want to go to Starfury at the end of April but have nobody to go with . aaawwwwwww :D So if anybody wants to meet up just let me know.

Yeah...I know how you feel, being a new browncoat as well. And the part about quoting the 'verse in real life is strangly and odly true. Long live the browncoats!
