Just checking to see how strong my addiction to this show is.
How often do you guys and gals watch an episode or the movie? Once a month, couple times, once a week?
I tend to take a few breaks from it but I'm probably in the order of about 2 or 3 times every two weeks. I keep wondering when I'll get tired of it but I keep popping the dvd in there. The box set and the movie just sit on top of the tv... I don't even bother to put them away when I'm done.
How about the rest of you?

I'm not sure I've ever kept track of how often I watch. I just pop it in when I really feel the need to.
But I have little kids in the house so I can't just watch a PG-13 movie whenever I want. It takes more careful planning to eak out grown-up time. So probably less than what you stated.
I'd say I watch the movie or one of the Firefly discs at least once a month.
When I don't have time to watch, I pop in here for little tidbits of info to tide me over.

Nowadays, I'm down to an episode or two a week.
But, if I average it out over the past 5yrs, it probably would work out to an episode every day or two...:)

Wow. It always amazes me that people can watch the series/movie that often. I would like to watch it more than I do but I also love to watch other series and movies. And whilst Firefly is my favourite series there are many other great shows out there.
I don't know how you find the time to watch it that much, unless you watch very little else.
I'm probably in the region of 2 or 3 times a year for both (I always watch the series then the movie, don't like just dipping in or watching part of it).
I find that way I will probably never get tired of it (I would hate for that to happen).
Fairplay to those who can watch it that much.

One week every month I watch the complete cycle in order :
Firefly Series
Done The Impossible
Serenity
then I also throw in to "complete" the cycle :
Outer Limits : "Starcrossed" with Nathan Fillion
Outer Limits : "Phobos Rising" with Adam Baldwin
This helps keep me relatively sane.

I'm in with the 2/3 times a year crowd, but watching it all in a short space of time, including the film. Probably watch an episode a day for a couple of weeks.

I usually watch them every couple of months. That's how I am with all films and television that I like. It keeps them fresh.

((thinks))...
I don't think I've watched Firefly since around September 2005, when the movie opened.
I haven't watched Serenity since it left the theatres, with the exception of the Equality Now charity screening a few months back. Which, technically, was in a theatre, so.... um.... Yeah.
I wonder why that is...

I only watch Serenity every couple of months. I'll watch a few episodes of Firefly about once a month, but it has the advantage that you can watch it in Spanish and French, too, so that's a lot of episodes to go through before starting back with English.
Firefly was incredibly well synchronized to lip movements in Spanish and French, but unfortunately you lose almost all of the plays on words and unique expressions that make the series what it is. But it's a fun way to keep language skills up, anyway.

As I am retired and have plenty of time, all my TV watching is of my collection of series programs. Firefly, Wonderfalls, Buffy 1-7, Angel 1-5, Smallville 1-6, Joan of Arcadia 1-2, Party of Five 1-2, Lost 1-2, West Wing 1-7, Bones 1-2, Soap 1-4.
I pick a series, watch a season and move to another series. Firefly and Buffy get the most repeats.
If I can't decide, I pick a movie.. watch it.. then pick another series.
Between all that, playing golf, building RC cars, computing, talking to my grandchildren, I just don't have time for a life...
