Long time lurker first time poster. I want to say that ever since I fist saw firefly I feel different. It's as if my body has grown dependent on this addictive addictive truly gem of a show. The day I finished the final episode I felt the urge to once again pull out the first disc and watch the whole series over again. Firefly started something in my soul that steadily consumes it more and more until I hunger so deeply that the only option left to me is to lash out at the devil incarnate (in my mind) the fox station. However my mind cannot think of any peaceful way to do this the urge to get vengance is still there am i the only one whose soul has been consumed by the firefly fever such as I?

Yes.

The first day I borrowed my Dad's copy, not a one has gone by that I don't watch Firefly or Serenity or some sort of video/interview that has to do with it. Either that or I'm reading fan fiction, or dreaming of a way I can hit Moonlight Rising to see our beloved Captain and the Hero of Canton.

It kinda crawls under your skin and just eats away at your soul. Only it leaves you a better person.

It's as if there was something I was missing and yet didn't know it. Now that I've seen it, that void has been filled and cannot ever be completely satisfied. I just need more.

Hubby just quit smoking. And I've said it before and will say it again: now I know that craving.

I'm not yet into selling things off to supply myself with Firefly stuff, but it's an awfully tempting possibility. Perhaps my Star Wars stuff may wind up on EBay...

I agree. It's addicting.

Ever since I saw the TV show aired for the first time on Sci-fi channel... I got hooked.

But seriously, I'm not addicted. Not at all. I can quit watching it anytime I want to. I just don't want to!

I'm addicted, plain and true, no turning back.

I like it too!

I've been watching Firefly since before the movie came out and Serenity since. I haven't missed a single day. And I've never been this way before, not about anytning.

So.... yea, you are not alone.

And hey, we're glad you quit lurking and started posting!

Oh, and here's your Browncoat....

We're glad to have you aboard.

Some other folks will come along and offer you food no doubt and remind you that since we all want more (!) to share Firefly/Serenity with as many folks as you can, so more people will fall in love.

On my blog, I referred to it as "visual crack". No, you are not alone.

You're not alone (and if you ever feel like you are, just post that question again on here and you'll be reassured very quickly). Most, if not all, of us on this board seem to feel that way. It's odd--I haven't yet figured out why Firefly speaks to some more sincerely than others. I understand the people who watch it and don't like it--they're just soulless. ;-) I don't quite get the distinction between those who watch and really enjoy it and those who watch and fall in love. I am in the latter category. Call it love, call it addiction, call it whatever you want. Doesn't matter--it all means the same thing. This 'verse and these characters and in my head and in my heart, ALL DAY EVERY DAY. I've decided you've gotta just give in to it. Really, there's no choice about the matter anyway.

Glad you're here with the rest of us weirdos(*with a nod to CHRISTHECYNIC*)!

SIMON: That's not much.
MAL: It's enough.
