Hello everyone. I am sort of new here. I wanted to share my story...I could not find any other thread that already had the topic...(pardon my ignorance if there is one)

Anyway, a while back, my husband bought Serenity. I put it at the bottom of the movie pile and ignored it. We went on vacation and when we came back I was reluctant... but watch it with him...I liked it.

Then he went to get me Season 3 of the X-files and bought also Firefly the series...I was a little because I figured why get into something that does not have an ending? (Please do not kill me...let me finish my story )

I saw one episode and I was so hooked that all I did was talk about it and hate the network and the non-intelligent people that made the decision to cancel such a wonderful show. I ended the series and watch the movie again... Now, I am able to understand everything and I am ready to say that I am a true Browncoat or whatever is that that describes a true fan. Count me in to collect members and money!

What is your story?

Welcome, Maximus!

We love the Newly Converted, so shiny all over!

Welcome to the Ranks of the Browncoats, Strawberries & Mudder's Milk are on the buffet right over there --------->

You'll find folks on this board who watched the show first run on Fox, or F*x as some call it, folks who saw the movie first then delved into the series like yourself, and everyone in between.
Use your newfound enthusiasm to show others the Browncoat Way. Check out the guerilla marketing threads mid board, there are some great ways to channel your shinyness.

EDIT: You live in NOVA? Whoohoo, there are only 3 active posters that I know of in the Metro area, Me, PaganPaul, and Ryce. Now we are 4!Maybe someday I will be able to get a Tall Card Charity Tournament up and running after all!

I feel so welcome...Thank you all. I am going to make my hubby sign too...

I was in serious need of a new place to come and listen, post and read what others think and share ideas. Maybe we can start a Browncoat United Firefly Forever (for the Metro area)

BUFF for all interested.

Welcome, MaximusChapolinius to our corner of the internet 'verse! It's always shiny to have new recruits join!

Please let me offer you a glass of Irish whiskey to sip.

I'm one of those who suffered through F*X's treatment of our BDS (big d@mn series) but didn't find my way here until about a year ago.

And no worries about finding the 'proper' thread. You did just fine.

Welcome again, and look foward to talking with ya!

Thank you, Thank you and more thank you's...

I am so glad I found this place. It is great here. I have been reading some other threads and I am hoping to cathc up with all of them pretty soon here. There is so much to discuss about this incredible show...

What I can not understand for the love of G is why did they cancel it when we see so many just plain, trashy shows that do not even amount to 1% of Firefly, yet there are still on TV, kicking and bringing in the big $$$$...I guess that accounts for some taste...
