Maybe it's Good that Firefly Ended...

Well to be honest about the whole FF fan thing. I more than likely may not be here if the show had conuinued. Not to say that I wouldn't be a fan. But one of the things that lead me to FFFan.net was that I was searching for more. Had FF still been on the air I think I would be content with just watching the show. I don't know. It's really hard to say what I'd be doing if FF was still on. One thing I do know is that the actors and creative team weren't ready for it to be canciled. There were plenty of Joss stories to be told so I feel that we would have been entertained by the "Verse" for at least a season 2 probibly more.

On a happy note. At least the way things have turned out I've come here and made many browncoat friends. That,I believe is a very good thing, Z

I disagree with the topic. There are so few things that are truly "good" on TV and in life and to see something that was simply amazing stripped before it ever got a chance to shine is sickening. Honestly. Try and watch the whole series again, and right after you're done, you try and tell me that you're happy it ended. I'm watching the whole thing again and I'm ready to scream I'm so frustrated with the way it went down.

Just because something is worth fighting for doesn't mean it's gotta be something small. The fact is, we wouldn't be HERE, kicking and screaming that we want our show back, but instead, we'd all be watching seasons 4, 5, and 6 of Firefly over and over again. We'd still be fans, we'd just be quieter fans.

Saying its a good thing that it's gone is like saying it's a good idea to deprive yourself of food because when you DO finally eat, you like it more. The fact is, you're starving yourself, and although you might appreciate it more... YOURE STARVING YOURSELF! *smack*!

I agree with bludvipr. Plus, I dare you to go to any Buffy / Angel fansite and ask if their show lasting seven or five years made them less obsessed than if it had lasted half a season. Cuz this Buffy/Angel fan says no way!

I think that the browncoats are who we are today due to the premature cancellation of the show. Joss had more of the story to tell and we wanted that story. It was what drove us in those early days of "hiatus" then cancellation to campaign as we did to get the show back or have another network pick it up. It was that determination that led to the dvd set being released then the movie being made by Universal.

Would we be the same as we are now if the show had lasted a couple of seasons? Maybe not. I think if we had had two or three seasons under our belt we would have been legion. I firmly believe that had Fox kept the show we would have had a huge fanbase. We may not have been as loyal and driven as we are now, but we would have still been here.
