I just burn Firefly for whichever friends want to see it and I tell them that if they really like it and would like to see more than they should buy it and show their support. I think that most of the TV shows on DVD are horribly overpriced (like X-Files at $105.00 per season until recently), so I think that it's asking a lot to tell one of your friends or anybody else to buy it for $40.00 before they even saw it.
I bought seasons 1 and 2 of Arrested Development, and other than Firefly, that's the only TV show I have on DVD. I never buy them myself and I usually just download them and give them to my friends and family(it's nice having all of the commercials removed, complements of the cyber-pirates). I bought Arrested Development to show my support for the funniest show on TV and then FOX ran about 8 episodes of the 3rd season one night and just killed it. Fox is great at finding material that viewers will love and then destroying it. FOX is the cure for happiness. I'm just glad they didn't cancel Married With Children early or Al Bundy would never have started the National Organization of Men Against Amazonian Masterhood. (NO MAAM!)
I think Joss should start his own network. He already has the fanbase. Bring firefly back as internet webisodes and let the Browncoats pay for what they want to see... not to line the pockets of some boneheads at FOX that are just going to cancel all the good shows anyways....
Sorry... I hijacked your thread and started to ramble again. If you see me around you'll know that I do that on occasion. Welcome aboard Alexandrea. (Did I just say welcome aboard? I feel like I should be going to a Star Trek Convention. Firefly has brought out the geek in me.)

Welcome AJS.
Herein lies the rub. You are a Browncoat. Not much of a rub is it. Well we try. One post and you've pasted your test. We are short and tall, male and female, young and old, and we laugh and cry, so you have just added to our diverse verse. I see your in school and that will take up a lot of your time, but join us and post so we get to know each other.
And once again welcome.
Traveler

Welcome to your new home AJS!! There are a few folk here who are still at school! You'll find others who've forgotten what a school smells like (though I tend to find that walking back into one brings back instant memories...) we are all the different people that Traveler mentioned... and more! We're from all around the globe, and if you're anything like me you will makes friends that mean the world to you here!
These strawberries are divine - I don't know where FloralBunny gets them... (Hi FloralBunny!) I know FollowMal will bring you a browncoat of your own soon - but the coat does not the 'browncoat' make...
It's terrific to have you here - love, Magda x x x

Hi, AJS! Glad to have ya' here with us. We hope you'll post often and enjoy your stay.
Vaguely obsessed or completely obsessed, you're welcome here. We're all vaguely nuts or geeky or something, but we don't mind at all. It's much more fun that way.
