Really, give this up already,

We won against fox, they lost a great show and its going to be a movie, a movie they wont even get a share of the profit of since universal owns the rights.

Theres really nothing to complain about, its not my fault some of you decided to watch "average Millionaire 7: Alaska" and realised it wasnt up to standards, the title should have been enough people!



People only beleive somehting if it's in a movie

Reign in there Arcbeatle. We Browncoats are just having a bit of fun at the expense of the Fox folk again. No harm in that.

We have not won against Fox until the movie is out and a success. Remember that Fox is the one reaping most of the profit from the DVD set, not Universal.

A real victory would be the movie being a smash and than a revival on a rival network crushing the Fox show in the same time slot. Now that would be real hi-larious.

sorry, I just reallised I wrote my posts sort of nasty-like. Dont much want you people to think I'm some sort of crazed ruffian.

Baisicly my point is that this thread has been done70ish times, slightly varied, but weve made fun of fox, fox executives, foxes, and badgers so much that it isnt really funny any more. Its at the point where I don't really doubt you would the kind of things you joke about.

I also think it makes FireFlyFans.net kinda a bad place for any one who works at fox or knows someone who works there and seperates them from the rest of the browncoat community.

No offense to any one, and I know you're just foolin around, but then again thats just my 0.03$

I agree that we haven't won *yet*.

And while it may no longer be funny to make fun of FOX execs, I still think it is very cathartic.

I like the reality show idea. As for which Browncoats would go...I think we do a nationwide talent search. We call it American Vengence. We show our talent for expressing outrage, we sing the Ballad of Serenity, and our ability to be ironical. Three judges, Joss, Nathan, and Paula Abdul.

Winners spend the 32 days in the house with the Fox executives. The twist. No cameras. Just us, a house, all the usual Big Brother stupid challenges and such...but no cameras. Everyone who lasts the 32 days gets $1 million, a camio in the FF movie, and a very fine hat. The executives, if they last, can keep their jobs.

I don't think anyone here is seriously considering stalking a Fox exec and doing them bodily harm ArcBeatle. I know I'm not. Don't much care for Fox or what they did to Firefly, but we will have the last laugh.

I think it is constructive for people to work out their frustration as SouthernSlayer has done in this thread. It beats writing hate mail to Fox, and we all get a laugh out of it. No harm, no foul.

Try not to take these things so seriously, I know I don't.
