My biggest resistance has been one of my roommates. She doesn't want to watch becasue she likes teasing me with her refusal. It makes me laugh, but it also makes me sad. Cos, I know she'd like em if she just watched. It's not as if they aren't playing often enough in the apartment, she just leaves and stuff. Kinda frustrating.

Otherwise it's been very easy. Just pop it in and anyone is hooked.

I would not really know where to begin with the conversion.
I know if I showed it to some of my friends they will like it. But not enough to become a Browncoat or to go out of their way to posts here.

I also think that I am the only one who has actually seen it in this parts.

I always thought that Han Solo was a cowboy. So it was an easy thing for me with the Space Western.

jpstargazer, I feel like responding to you personally. First, I love your U2/Firefly correlation. I can never listen to that song without thinking of this fandom.

As for your conversion score. I rock you. :P

Full-fledged Browncoats: 7 (5 of which own box sets)
Partial recruits (have seen, like): 9
Introduced: 5

From that it has branched out. My roomie has converted a small handful as well.

Keep up the good work, folks. Resist the resistant.

My now ex-girlfriend's biggest complaint about the show was the dialogue, saying "Nobody talks like that!" No, we did not breakup because of that.

Clearly she'd just never met any of the browncoats who HAVE adapted their vocabulary to sound like the show ;)

I'm very smart.

SigmaNunki, I like the way you think. I have not had much chance to do any converting of my own, but my thoughts are pretty much along those lines.

Kindred spirits abound here. Thanks

AGENTRUSCO- I feel where you're coming from. My husbands friend who practically lives at our house constantly teases me and of course flat out refuses to watch. I know if he gave it a chance he would just love it because he loves all those other sci-fi shows including the old Dr. Who. I just shake my head at his logic.

Converted Browncoats: 2 (bought them each boxsets)
# who LOVE it but not a Browncoat: 1
# who LIKE it: 1

I was surprised that I got my aunt converted because she's really religious and all she wants to talk about is GOD and the Bible but she thought it was awesome. She made me take her to the store to get her own set, of course she didnt really have to force me. I'm the one who eventually ended up buying it for her cause I was so tickled.

i hate it when non browncoats try 2 bring us down! its sill and pointless! i really hate it when they go onto websites just to mock or hate the show/movie! i mean, seriously, why go through all that just to put people down? and ive converted a couple of my friends into browncoats, not as extreme as me, but they're getting there!

Yeah I've never really had anyone say outright that it was stupid, but one time I was trying to explain the show to someone, and they kinda were looking at me like "...what?" But then again, I don't think the show's premise is very easy to explain, or easy to convey how cool it is!
