And a shiny welcome to you as well, Scifido! We need all the new Browncoats we can find. Enjoy the site, and I hope you too have the DVD set, so you can always enjoy an episode when you want.

They can have my "Firefly" DVDs when they pry them from my cold, dead fingers....

Oh yeah, you, FOX TV!!




You betcha Gorram bottom I've got the DVDs. It was my only Christmas present to myself. Nobody paid any attention to my hints.

Now, I am selectively lending them to spread the word and expand the viewer 'verse.


OK, but what's the speed of dark?

Hello everyone! I'm a new Firefly fan too. I'm afraid I didn't watch it while it ran, but I've been a Whedonverse fan for a couple of years and my friend recently got me into Firefly and I'm hooked!

This site is just incredible! Glad to be here and nice to meet you all!

Welcome Qinggai. Glad to have you with us. Make yourself at home and jump right into the conversations.

I'm new as well. I remember reading the preliminary material on "Firefly" back when Rebecca Gayheart was slated to play Inara. With other things going on, I never remembered when the show was on, except seeing for the end scenes of "Jaynestown". I kept hearing about how great it was from friends, though. Then the DVDs were released and I bought myself a set on a whim. My "to be viewed" pile is as bad as my "to be read" pile, so it took me awhile to get there. Then one long weekend, I wanted something to watch. Why not "Firefly"? If I didn't like it, I knew a friend who would take the set off my hands. Then I saw "Serenity" and the rest is history. "Once you enter Serenity, you never want to leave..." I spread out the discs over several weeks, finally finishing watching just before the movie news. Nice timing on my part. Otherwise, I would have been staring at the dvds mournfully saying "No more?" I wistfully look at the tv section on Suncoast, swearing there should be a second season up there. What surprised me was the serious moments. I knew "Firefly" had laugh out loud moments, but when that last scene in "The Message" appeared, I was close to tears, even more so after hearing Edmonson saying it was a goodbye song for the song.

So... that's me. That's why I'm here.

They're not taking the sky from me... not without a fight anyway.

Okay, so I'm a big dolt and misspelled my name in the alias, lol.

Thanks, Browncoat1 and Lissa, for the welcome! I'm still trying to find my way around the site (there's just so much to see!), but I'll be sure to jump right in.

I'm going to save up and maybe buy the Firefly DVD's with my tax refund. Until then, I can watch 'em whenever I want with my friend. Ah, where would we be without friends?

Howdé again. Fellow newbie. Nothin' to see.

Been watching the show since The Train Job. Still haven't gotten the DVDs, since I'm in gorram Ottawa (i.e., everything not sports- or politics-related just doesn't bother coming here ), but they're on the to-buy list. Y'know, when I have money.

Originally hooked (late) on Buffy, then Angel, by now it's just a general Joss-fanness. And hey, being a beginning writer myself, I can call it continuing education.

Y'know, every board has its own character. This place is nicely casual and laid back. It'll make a nice respite from the nuthouses I usually frequent.

Yay! More Canadians! Not that I don't like our southern neighbours, of course. Go Canada! And to update you on a little hockey news: Poor Bertuzzi... I know what he did was wrong, but he's genuinely sorry...the poor guy broke down on tv for goodness sakes...

You're hilarious. Sadist.
