I gotta go with the moron on this one. I'm 14, and I still watch Jackie Chan Adventures and Static Shock.

Yes, I was just thinking that it resembled some sort of primitive mating ritual--you know, where the men would butt heads like deer? They just had an article about ancient humans who had helmet-like skulls, presumably so they could do that.
Good to see the classics revived in a new form.

Okay, glad to see this died down.
First point:
If a show is put in the "death-slot", no matter how good or bad it is, is bound to fail. I am an avid Browncoat, but I know this is the reason. It breaks my heart, but I have mended it, so here I am.
Second point:
If a person feels to express their displeasure with the show, they can say all they want. But, in a place such as this, which is deticated to the show, it;s not such a good idea. But, hey! he can if he wants.

I am new here and see this thread is really old. Not wanting to start a flame war.. but where is adam now? I suggest for naysayers, go to Amazon.com and read the comments about the dvd sets. From many people, like myself, who have found and fell lin love with this series. over 700 comments, with an average of 5 star ratings. That is amazing.

Plus, the fan base has multiplied greatly. I am living proof.

I wonder where Adam is now that the DVD set is out, and in little over 3 months has sold well over 200,000 copies in region 1 alone. When Region 2 is available in April, I imagine the number of sold sets will approach 350,000. Doesn't sound like a "bad show" to me.
Then there is the news of the movie coming out next year as well. Wonder how many of his so called "bad shows" can claim all of the things that Firefly can? Not so many I am guessing.

Adam, facts speak louder than your lame attempts at flame bait. If the show is so bad and compares to Birds of Prey, why are there so many Firefly fans and fan based sites, and so few BOP fan sites? Why is Firefly one of the best selling DVD box sets ever released? Why is Universal Pictures giving Joss 50 million to make this "failed" series into a movie?
I'm old enough to remember jerks like you, condemning original series Trek fans for loving a show that was canceled after only 3 years. After 10 movies and four spin off series, those detractors have been shown for the short sighted fools that they were. Time will prove you equally wrong.
Every person has the right to be stupid Adam, but you're abusing the privilege. Now go away and ponder something more your speed, like why girls won't talk to you.
I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.
