God I don’t know if I have some mental disorder or something but when small minded people who didn’t bother to watch a show past (what I assume was fox’s badly advertised trailer for ‘shindig’) then go on to slate a man I have admired since I was 14 and who’s work I have followed since that point in my life, immersed myself in his worlds and his characters lives cried with them, laughed with them parts of me died with them when they died, well it makes me so mad! I hate the small minded ness of these people, Gina is a freaking goddess! I was in awe when she was on Angel as Jasmine and don’t even get me started on Caleb and how much depth Nathan brought to him. I can only chalk that first guy up to him being a bitter Buffy fan, being a fan of all of joss’s shows I have observed the traits of the fans, most people assume they are all the same kind of people but that’s a misnomer. He is one of those guys who was so bitter at joss or whatever for handing reign over to Marti for season 6 they blamed firefly I bet he hasn’t even seen it. Out of all the fans of joss I have seen I have to admit none have been as passionate and dedicated as those who follow firefly. While I may not post as much as I’d like I visit the site every day and feel part of the family here, you guys rock. I have never visited the O.B. this was the first firefly site I discovered almost a year ago now when I first saw firefly on SCI-FI (uk guy!) and although what he said about me being a whedonite is true and that we’ll follow anything with his name on I can say with all honesty the crew of serenity are just as deep and immense as characters as any from Buffy and what amazed me is that joss achieved that in only 15 episodes, this guy is a fool for rejecting firefly because not only has he missed out on witnessing a show that burrows deep into your very soul but he has missed out on one hell of an amazing fan base. I feel sorry for him.
And that guy who hates Gina, he must be blind…I don’t get him. And sorry for the rantyness…pissed me off is all…

It's a character from Trainspotting. One of the greatest movies ever made, IMO. But anyway...
Different strokes for different folks. We're getting our movie and they get to vent their spleens on Harry Jay Knowles's website. Guess who comes out ahead?

Honestly, I couldn't stop laughing when I read that...
I mean, does this guy think ANYONE will take that review seriously?
Thanks for the chuckle!

Guys, just because that guy dosen't share the same opinions as you do on a show does not mean that they are low-intelligence etc etc..
There's nothing such as a "best" show. What's "good" is only what appeals to you, and that may not appeal to everyone.

Well, I do agree with that as a general life rule, but, to me, what proves any "low-intelligence" comments is this:

That was the stupidest, gayest, wannabe tough-guy dialogue I've ever seen, delivered by a hack.
Anyone who feels the need to use any form of a the word "gay" as an insult is a complete idiot, and not worthy of my attention. It's prejudiced, plain and simple, and slurs on someone's race, sexuality, religous preference, gender or nationality is the lowest-intelligence form of insult.
Even if he hadn't been raving like a lunatic, that one word alone, in that context, would make me discount anything else he'd said.

I don't believe that Sickboy hates Firefly anywhere near as much as he states. Every single thing that he said was bad about Firefly is a strength. No one can be that wrong about something and be the same species as the rest of us. He cleverly crafted an attack on our favorite show designed to make us mad as hell. It almost worked. I don't understand trolls so I just ignore them.
Nice shot. I was aimin' for his head

Yeah, I was hooked right then, too. But it just kept getting better.
