My initial reaction was: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! then there was much cursing of F** and ranting that the execs should go to the special hell.

I also got to watch Firefly when it aired on Fox. When that episode aired I was unaware of the cancellation. I did not even realize until much later that the show was over. I just figured that they were on another hiatius and would be back in a few weeks.

Then I saw a preview for Serenity. It was like I had blocked out that the show ever existed. But it all flooded back like a repressed memory of a bad childhood.

After I saw Serenity multiple times and then owned the DVD I finally found a copy of the Firefly at the store while wondering around.

When I finished the Series IN ORDER finally I just found this empty longing for the story to continue. It was not over and I am glad I have found a place that has the same opinion

I saw them on Fox when they first aired and was aware of the impending cancellation. When Serenity-the-Pilot aired (last) I cried. I have NEVER cried because a show was ending.

When I heard the DVDs were coming out I got excited because there were three unaired episodes. I watched the whole thing in order and cried again.

Darn you Joss!

It was a serious Roller Coaster ride watching it on Fox. I kept hearing rumors it was in trouble, and Fox was gonna cancel it. After watching Ariel, I thought there is no way in hell this series is getting cancelled, because it's just too damn good.


A few weeks later Fox cancelled it. But the thing that wakes me up in the middle of the night swearing, and cursing is that the week before Fox aired the pilot,(last episode)after they had confirmed they would make no more episodes, there was a ton of promotion going on. Firefly commercials every other minute"See how it all began this friday on Fox". But the previous handful of weeks....nohing, hardly no commercials and promos. It was almost as if Fox was dragging us Browncoats through the mud laughing. If it were played in the right order, with the kind of promotion it had in the final week we might still be watching Firefly every Friday night.

THANKS FOX!!!

i just discovered the series a week ago. my roommate had the dvd collection. and here i am, 7 days later, having ingested every episode with a feverish excitement, and i can say i was left speechless after the last episode. it was good and bad. sweet and sour. overall, i am grateful for the show being so f'ing wonderful. not many things will stick me to my couch on warm summer days, but i used up every second i had available to watch. but like any great show (freaks & geeks being particularly similar here...a single season) it left me feeling alone afterwards. like going on a great vacation, meeting all of these new people, having adventures, and then boarding the plane and flying home to the same old same old. it's a difficult feeling to swallow, but it's that happy/sad, sweet/sour, knowing it was worth it.

now, the episode itself, objects in space. not much closure, which aided in creating the hole left inside me. the whole "river being hunted by the alliance" storyline wasn't my most favorite, (i liked the small plots and whatnot best) and was disappointed when the movie shot in the same direction. don't get me wrong...additional firefly was all i was after. and i was happy. i just wish the action was dumbed down and more focus had been put on the characters.
i don't know what i mean. i just wish there was more. is that so wrong?

Yeah, the people at fox are bastards. Not only did they cancel Friefly, they cancled Wonderfalls and Family Guy. Ok, the brought Family Guy back but one out of three still doesn't change the fact that they are bastards.
