FYRFLY,

As per your question.There's always a glimmer. You'll find something that is said here quite often "We Hold!!" till the show gets back. Just a couple of things to take with you before hitting the bunk tonight. Serenity the BDM (Big Damn Movie) was made only after the outcry of loyal browncoat fans and if it hadn't been for their effort I and many others would have never known of this great little series. So that shows there's always hope.

Next thing that I want to tell you is that just this past Fall there was a very big SHINDIG called the BROWNCOAT BASH that had some problems when the sponsors bailed. Did that keep the browncoats down? Hell NO!! they went ahead with the bash and guess who came to help the event have a positive upturn, 'ol Capt. Reynolds himself (Nathan Fillion), and Jayne Cobb (Adam Baldwin) Morena Baccarin (Inara) Alan Tudyk (Wash), Christina Hendricks (Saffron), Mark Sheppard (Badger) and the guy who played Tracy in the message eps ( sorry I don't recall his name at the moment) There were others too and I'm sure the rest of the crew would have been there if they could have. I'm proud of the whole bunch and I'm not talking only the actors. All the browncoats that made the trek out there too.

So there you go. Not only are the fans devoted, but the cast is too ( as well as Joss and company) Squeeze what you will outta that but I see it as a good and hopeful thing

Z,out

I'm fairly new to the 'verse myself so from one newbie to another... WELCOME! I totally understand your frustration with the whole Mal/Inara thing. I too wish that they could have at least admitted something, if not acted on it. And it's possible that something might have come from it if the show had been given the chance to fulfill it's great destiny.

My brother and I share the opinion (and others out there may as well, I don't know) that if Firefly had been on the Scifi channel rather than the idiotic Fox channel, it would have been the great show it should be. Perhaps if we all pull together and work hard enough, we can one day get it there.

I got into the Firefly 'verse late in the game like you Fyrfly....Sept, 2006. If I had been one of the original viewers of the TV series I think I'd have been a lot more frustrated with the situation than I actually am.

The way I try to philosophize about it is that Television is generally nothing but crap, re-hashed, un-funny, produced/formulated mindless garbage....along comes Firefly....no one in the TV world expected it, no one knew what they were watching at Fox....HOW DARE Joss & Tim create a sci-fi show without aliens, without monsters, without policitical correctness...ya know...make sure there's a pc-correct mix of Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, and Gays....NONE of that here with Firefly...how refreshing! Our show has whores, and bad guys robbing people, and shooting them when they must....our show has characters on it that we come to feel as family....can you say that about any other show?....even good ones?...I cannot. Now..as far as this depression thing goes, don't worry....There's lots of Firefly / Serenity material out there to keep you satisfied until the next movie...and here at FFF there are always interesting discussions of episodes & characters, and new postings of paintings and pictures, fanfics, and updated convention & news events. The folks here...Hobbleit comes to mind first....are very talented and obsessed, they are creating on an almost daily basis new Firelfy graphic material, new banners, new collages, etc...and for me they really help keep Firefly fresh and alive.

Welcome to the 'Verse and your new Firefly family!

I know exactly how you feel! I held off watching the last few episodes for a few days because I was so sad that it was already coming to the end. But you've found the best place to be! Work through that saddness by reading the unfilmed Firefly script, watching the River Tam Sessions, viewing the artwork, etc. It sure helped me.
