...and is probably a touchy subject, but here goes.

In the last few days, I've watched the whole Firefly show from beginning to end. It was a good show!

I'm wondering why it was cancelled. Ratings? Creative differences? What?

Can someone link me, because I can't find it.

It really is too bad. :( I know Firefly fans were pissed off when it was cancelled and can't say that I blame them. If I'd been watching then, I'd have been pissed, too. As it is, I'm sorry there isn't more to watch.

I haven't watched the movie and just found out that I can't get it on iTunes (grrrr), so I'll have to wait a bit on that. I hope it wraps things up.

welcome to the Shiny side!:)

the movie is great - the opening alone just got reviewed in the top ten tracking shots of all time!

as for firefly getting axed - we all have our pet theories... aint no/way to know. Angel was cancelled whilst still the highest rated show at that time... go figure.

have fun here!

All you need to know is it was Fox Network.

Firefly - Axed
Family Guy - Axed
Angel - Axed

But, they keep the crap stuff on.

Baffles me, it do.

and yet, for some reason, I still have to see promos for that stupid American Idol thingy

Anyway, one of the wonders of Firefly is that every time you watch you see something new.

I suggest you buy the DVDs of both the series and film. They are the most rewatchable DVDs I've had the pleasure to own.

LOL! hence my darkhorse post - AMERICAN SLAYER

Quote:

Slayers go Fight Club - go American Idol

don't tell me the newling slayer cubs are all sweetness and light... don't tell me they aint itching to pop and scratch and fight each other and some poor vamps - just to find out which ONE of them would've been THE slayer...

who else can imagine the underground fighting and voting and closed circuit internet reality show they must have as their subculture - since they can't hardly move in the 'real world'.?
Am i the only one who thinks a heap load of slayers is, um, dangerous?

a slayer gone bad and they call for Faith - but i was re-reading issues 1-5 and looking round the castle... i coudn't help but see a mess of violence waiting to happen...


VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE SLAYER NOW!

i still think if Joss made Firefly a reality show set in a spaceship - and we voted people out the airlock - fox would take it on...

and yep, Adam - Angel genuinely was...
