Did anyone else watch Attack of the Show on G4? Sarah Lane's "The Feed" reported on the possibility of a second season of Firefly (the pay on demand thing that just popped up recently).

First, when she said "Firefly" she snickered. OK, maybe she's not a fan. Then she made the comment (right after referring to it as "pay on demand") "Pay, I understand. But 'demand'?"

It doesn't make me angry because I'm a fan and she was making fun of the show; they do have to make jokes at someone's expense. It makes me angry because she's so clueless as to the actual size of the demand.

Man, AotS is normally a pretty decent show too. (Although I have to say the parts I enjoy the most are when Kevin is passive aggressively bashing Sarah. Their chemistry is funny because I always get the very strong impression that he hates her but isn't allowed to say it out loud.)

Sarah makes a joke about Firefly/Serenity/Browncoats every week. She dislikes the show and the fans. She's made that very clear. And Kevin P. doesn't know a thing about scifi. Take them with a grain of salt.

Leo likes it.

They were very intrested in FireFly when the Serenity movie was coming out but I think they were kind of dissapointed when it wasn't an overnight Blockbuster. They were trying to jump on the band wagon for the "new Spiderman" movie franchise. But it turnsout Browncoats don't like to leave the house.

Plus AotS gets their entire so off of message boards. Not much is orginal, and most of there original content is just fluff.

I haven't watched that episode yet, but I'll watch it tomorrow (hooray, DVRs!).

However, she does it all the time. During every story related to Firefly or Serenity, she'll take a stab at it, the fans, or both.

Personally, I don't care what that alcoholic has to say anyways.

More info here:

Some info directly off the site...this does not sound hopeful, but the site looks pretty professional. I'd like to see it happen but how many actors are actually available?

Who we are:
We are an independent production company and core group of Browncoats. We are not affiliated with 20th Century Fox or Universal Pictures.

We are currently pursuing the rights to continue the series from Fox and make it available to the fans, either directly or via another broadcaster.

The optional information collected at this site is simply used to determine where and how the series should be marketed to consumers. (that's you!)

This site is NOT a solicitation for funds. If anyone claiming to represent this site, or any other site for that matter, asks you for money or sensitive personal information, you should report it immediately.

I seem to recall Kevin and Sarah live together... Or something. Maybe they broke up and he does hate her now...

I used to watch them and Leo on "The Screen Savers" before the channel became G4 and I prety much stopped watching it anymore. Just got too dumed down to bear.

Well, I do watch Braniac on occation, but that's not produced by G4. Some solid British humor in there.

We should just flood their messageboards, if we hit them up enough, and they have a slow newsday, you know they'll mention it.Maybe we could even try to get Kevin P. to post a bulletin about it on myspace, seeing as how he has like 15,000 freinds on there who would see it.

I'm a leaf on the wind.

"Man, AotS is normally a pretty decent show too."

Wow... how wrong you are... AotS is the crappiest show... ever? Yes, I think that the use of the word ever is justified here... The show has NO real news or tech content and what content is does have is made fun of with sub-standard joke material.

In fact, the entirety of G4 is USELESS. (Other than the fact that they run Star Trek: TNG regularly)

G4 sucks, and AotS is ten times worse....

AOTS can occassionally be pretty fun, as for the rest of the channel, yeah things have gotten bad(THE MAN SHOW,STREET FURY< FASTLANE??????????0 but they do get a lot of POTENTIAL browncoats who watch that channel, especially since they started airing next generation, so we need to hit up their boards like crazy until AOTS mentions us in a more positive light: MAKE SARAH LANE REALIZE JUST HOW BIG OUR"DEMAND" REALLY IS!!!!!

We will hold.
