I said it in the Fireflygasms thread, and I will say it here:

It is really cool that Joss reads our site, and I think it is great that he was able to take heart in our discussion and enthusiasm for the show.

Keep fighting Joss. Every Browncoat here is behind you all the way!

Joss said,

"Trying to work the movie deal, juggling so many balls and dropping them all, basically ending the week going, "I'm done. I'm tapped. Last man down, I don't even think I can do this."

I wonder if one of the balls that got dropped that week was Angel? Perhaps, in the midst of trying to make the movie, he is battling with WB and the stress is overwhelming.

Why oh why did I have to watch Finding Nemo today? My poor, sleep-deprived brain keeps seeing Dory saying to Joss, "Just keep flying, just keep flying. Flying, flying..."

"You didn't have to wound that man."
"Yeah, I know. It was just funny."

I have been a science fiction fan for about 30 years now, so I have had a lot of opportunities to see really bad stuff. The really good stuff is unfortunately exquisitely rare. Firefly most definitely is the good stuff.

Using Chinese was a wonderful touch, and educational. Ideas of loyalty, friendship and what is family is also evident. That is what draws me to stories, not exactly what is happening, but how the people involved react to what is going on around them. I find that so-called science fiction has a lot more real people in it than fiction does. People are allowed to be flawed, to have friendships be important, and when they rise above all that holds them back they become real to the audience. Having such a great cast certainly helped, each person was just so perfect in their role. In Firefly each character is a real person, not some cardboard cutout to make executives happy we have the vixen, hero, villain all checked off.

I hope,no matter what comes, that you will at least write books regarding Firefly, because that too keeps the dream alive. I miss the characters, and am happy to have the fan fiction here. I miss seeing them evolve, especially River and Simon, who were adjusting to the most changes. I love their brother-sister devotion. While we saw what Simon was willing to do for River, I think towards the end of the season we were finally getting a together River who could give back to Simon in equal measure.

Be it a movie, a series (yippee!!) or books, I will be there with bells on.

Just to let you know, lots of Firefly fans here in Australia. And getting more and more of our friends hooked on it every time we watch the DVD's.

Has somebody taken the Fox exec who canned the show and explained that they're too stupid to be permitted to live, that they are not earning their oxygen on a daily basis, and had them shot?

Makes you wonder how they make their decisions.

Is it mindless crap? Well it'll do great then!
Is it sci-fi? Does it have great plot, dialogue and characters? Oh well we can't have any of that.

*sigh*
