Hey all, I'm new here. I have owned the series and movie for a short time, and decided to join the community.

Just the possibility of a BDM2, or a revival of the series is exciting to me. This is the ONLY series I've ever bought, it's the only one that, in my opinion, was worth it, and it's not even a whole season! Anyways, I'm not a long-winded man. I probably won't post often, and not long posts when I do.



P.S.I just have to say, I'm impressed with Browncoats as a whole. I have visited MANY forums, and never encountered such an encouraging and polite community.

It's fun to charter an accountant,
And sail the wide accountancy.
To find, explore the funds offshore,
And skirt the shoals of bankruptcy.
It can be manly in insurance.
We'll up your premium semi-annually.
It's all tax-deductible,
We're fairly incorruptible.
We're sailing on the wide accountancy.

Oh, this is fun, Mr. Cohen!

Sail away!...

Up, up, up... ?



Damn,but I love the Python-coats but... I always envisioned that transcript as using the word(s), "Accountant Sea"... sort like the Mediterranan Sea... makes ya wonder whatthe hell a "Meditteranean" does for a living... or geographical origin...

That was a song cue, right?

I don't get the whole "mine,mine,mine" thing either,



Gosh... oh my age is showing, but... this is obvious: It's Daffy Duck from around the 1940's or 1950's - an episode written around a fantasy he and Bugs had about ...damn...I don't remember if it was Aladdin & the Magic Lamp or if it was Ali Baba & the 40 Thieves... ANYWAY... Daffy's line was, " 'Mine, mine, mine'... I'm a Happy Miser..." which line I've been using for decades whenever I bogarted something from some friend/family member that deserved to have "that thing" bogarted from them...

Bogart something"or your friends will think you're a stupid, inbred stack of meat."

PS... yeah, yeah, yeah... I know I'm hijacking the original context but... just like, Bugs Bunny... the oppportunity was too ripe with... opportunity... to resist.

(((hugs to all the Original Browncoats out there)))



Damn, you Iowa Priestesses sound sweet, thoughtful & generous

Okay, okay... at the risk of buggin' the rest of 'em, I'm just gonna say, "Hey! That's ME!!" I'm an "Original Browncoat!" I was one o' ..."THEM"... within the first 30 seconds of "The Train Job's" first airing on ... YOU know... THAT network...th' one nobody names around this website... I mean, that BDJoss-fellow had me at... ...that scene where the belly dancer slipped the note to Cappy Mal...

The fact that this site (FFF.net, that is) even exists, much less that it can help generate so many new Browncoats... MUCH LESS... promulgate the incredibly deep and articulate opining happening in this thread (alone)... I mean... it blows me away or, at least, the Original Browncoat that BDJoss blew away, lo, those several years ago, is blown away. The "I" that remains after-that-fact is a ...(ahem)... "Changed Man" and, as a 'Changed Man'... I look forward to being blown away by a new BDsequel or BDseries... or whatever "BDS" that BDJoss BDthrows at me, whenever he so feels like it. In that spirit, I went to the comic store at Citywalk & bought every one of those 'X-Men' comics he's been writing, that they had. It's not FF but it IS(!) ...BDJoss... and, well... I sure do like that Kitty Pryde... (among others)...

So ...just like "Grizwald" said, only 2 days ago, I'm SO FRIGGIN' HAPPPY that all you folks keep discovering my... Favorite Cheap Thrill of... whatever freakin' year FF came out... I just keep finding friends to give the boxset to & dvds of the BDM... and next thing I know... those peeps have a handle on FFF.net and they're finding an articulate way to bitch about Foxiversal and the damned trolls ...or whatever...

Now, continuing on... near the top of this thread, somebody - don't remember if it was "Anapa" or "Ana"... one o' ya who's handle begins with "A"... said something about the 'rarity of chances that Hollywood gives its ...participants...' to the effect of ...'one chance being super rare' and... 'the second chance being'... another quantum leap rarer, but - 'a third chance was unheard of...'

Now, I won't 'dispute' this on the face of it, but... if you've ever seen any successful actor or filmmaker (of any kind) interviewed, fr'example... on some 'red carpet'... and they were asked what advice they - as a successful filmmaker or actor - would give a would-be filmmaker or actor trying to come up in ...(damn)... "Tha' Biz"... that advice is always the same, namely... ...(ahem)...

"NEVER GIVE UP!! NEVER!!!! EVER!!!!!! ...EV... ...ER!!!!!!!!"

The people who have succeeded have made it through, perhaps, not just one, or two, or three ...or FORTY-three!!... "chances." The BDPoint is: they have Never Stopped Trying!
!! Never...
"Stopping trying," much like rehab, "...Is for quitters." That having been said, there is No Limit to the number of "Chances" that "Tha' Biz'" gives to anyone who wants to partake of 'It." (See Steve Martin's "L.A.Story," eh hoser?) I mean, the story's of Biz-Success-Despite-The-Wackiest-Odds... are endless. For just one example: it took the wife of the (at that time) current President of Columbia Pictures (Steve Canton), twelve YEARS(!!) to get "Forrest Gump" through its "development hell" before it had the privilege of being produced into a motion picture... which went on to become Pic' O' (that) Year.

So, in (much-delayed) conclusion, "You Hold! You HOL-LL-LDDDD!!" ...dunno what else an Original Browncoat can offer but...

...if Summer Glau can't still touch the back of her head with her big toe in 5 years, I'll be "a stupid, inbred stack of meat."

..."You Hold!!! You... HO-OLD-DDDD!!!!"

And, speaking as Browncoat0.1...

If you don't "Hold," "Your friends will think you're a stupid, inbred stack of meat."

Sorry about the typo. Guess the hands were moving faster than the brain for a moment there. Could be that the lack of coffee at the time had something to do with it.

YES!!!!!! That is exactly what I was thinking! I guess that means my age is showing as well. (Our area has Bugs on 2-3 each DAY. I've memorized most of them.) "Consequences, schmansequesnces, as long as I'm rich." Yea, I do tend to use it for bogarting purposes, or when I'm unwilling to share something I had through honest means.
