Already posted this for benefit of Penna Shindig folks but decided, hey, in solidarity with other grownups I should weigh in


How old are you?
Early 40s, and still haven't outgrown my intrinsic geekiness :)

Male or female?
Female

Single or taken?
Married, nineteen years

Location?
Toms River, NJ

When did you start watching Firefly?
Early this summer - a friend gave me the DVD set for Christmas and told me I'd love it, but it took me awhile to find a block of time to really check it out! Now I'm obsessed.

Who are two of your favorite characters?
Mal and Kaylee

What are two of your favorite episodes?
Changes everytime I watch! Um, Out of Gas and Jaynestown?

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise?
Book and River...they should take their act on the road

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well?
No...but I'm going to start.
I have the first Buffy season coming from Netflix

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)?
I couldn't say, but I have a hard time believing those shows could top Firefly.

Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV? One movie and then more seasons...I don't like waiting forever while movies are made!

How old are you? 22

Male or female? F

Single or taken? Single

Location? San Pablo, Ca (near San Francisco)

When did you start watching Firefly? Actually, just a few weeks agao. My best friend got the set for me for my birthday, and well I was a gonner after that! LOL!

Who are two of your favorite characters? I love them all, but if forced to chose I'd say... River (cause she's just CRAZY!) and Mal (cause he just kicks ass!)

What are two of your favorite episodes? Ariel (I'm a nursing student so this one is close to my heart) and Out Of Gas (I love the history of how they all came together)

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise? I'd have to say... Simon and Kaylee

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well? Yup

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)? I think its as good, if not better. If I had to list them I'd but Firefly as number one.

Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV? One movie and more seasons for sure, cause that means more firefly in hours and more story lines, with more answers to my ever growing list of questions.

This is a great little Q/A. Thanks a bunch.

How old are you? 29

Male or female? Female

Single or taken? Single

Location? Los Angeles, CA

When did you start watching Firefly? This summer. I was in Best Buy and had Forever Knight, Part I in my hands and was trying to decide if I would buy it despite the outrageous price that they were charging for it. Then, I decided to try Firefly because it was $60 cheaper than Forever Knight. Boy, was it the right decision!

Who are two of your favorite characters? Simon and Gabriel. There is a lot to flesh out there. I would like to know what Gabriel did after Simon left. Did he really abandon his children? Sometimes, parents say things when they are upset and don't follow through on them.

What are two of your favorite episodes? Ariel and Shindig.

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise? The Tams and Blue Sun. I would like to know more about that relationship and see how it plays out.

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well? I watched both religiously and have bought most of the seasons of both of them.

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)? That's a hard question. I think that Buffy is better than Angel but I can't decide if Buffy is better than Firefly.

Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV? I would prefer a movie and a few more seasons because you get more hours of Firefly out of a season than in three 90 minute movies and I want to explore this story in more depth than three movies would allow.

Every episode of firefly is better than most of the movies I see for my profession, and that makes it special.

How old are you? 21

Male or female? M

Single or taken? single

Location? Clearwater, FL

When did you start watching Firefly? About a week ago. It got me that friggin quick.

Who are two of your favorite characters? Wash and Kaylee, figure they really keep the the show grounded more than anyone else

What are two of your favorite episodes? Serenity and Objects in Space

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise? River and everyone on the ship. Everyone has a unique look at River, and you never know how River will react to anything. By far the most interesting, because you'll never know what'll happen next

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well? Both, since the first year of Buffy

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)? Now the problem I have here is that Joss is a master story teller who just excels as things move along. Angel is the best work in character development of all of them. But Firefly didn't get its fair go in length. Until we get more, Firefly will be great, but not quite there yet. There's just too much left to tell.

Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV? Why not both? But if I had to choose... I want a series to follow up the BDM, it gives so much more room and time to explore these characters.

Every episode of firefly is better than most of the movies I see for my profession, and that makes it special.

How old are you? 25

Male or female? M

Single or taken? Single, unfortunately

Location? Atlanta, Georgia

When did you start watching Firefly?

When it aired, but my addiction happened when I found the fan-based websites

Who are two of your favorite characters?

Jayne, and Book

What are two of your favorite episodes? Out of gas, and Ariel. These speak to character in everyone in show

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise?

Simon and River. Mal and Book.

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well? Not at all. J

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)?

I dont know. But, I respect his work, and I imagine that he knows what he is doing.


Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV?

I will be at the first movie the day it opens. I will also give my support to any further projects. However, I dont think anyone will sound off on anyone creating shows for the sake of just creating shows. Give me the backing of the cast, crew, and its creator...and I will sound off on the creation of a firefly channel.

They didnt call it the dark ages because it was dark.

How old are you? 43 next month

Male or female? F

Single or taken? Married

Location? Clearwater, FL

When did you start watching Firefly?
after Astriana and her hubby bought us the DVDs this spring as an anniversary present...HAD to watch it then ...won us over immediately!

Who are two of your favorite characters?
Jayne, and Book

What are two of your favorite episodes? Jaynestown and Ariel

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise?
Mal & Inara, Book & everyone else on the ship....he's a slightly different person to each of them. I think that shows his varied and mysterious past in how he changes, almost chameleon-like, to the person and situation.

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well? In fairness to the Mighty Whedon, I've been attempting to catch some eps lately...I think I need to go back to the beginning on DVD and watch them to have any clue as to what's going on and why...I seem to catch them late in the series, and I'm a bit lost. (although I did catch the ep where Buffy goes off to college the other day, and that was kinda cool).

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)?
I haven't seen much B & A, but Firefly seems more mature and hard edged, which works for me.

Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV?
We gotta choose???

Male or female?: Male

Single or taken?: Single

Location?: Scotland

When did you start watching Firefly?:
This month. Curiousity got the better of me. I thought that Sci-fi/fantasy's dying a slow, reality tv induced death until i saw this show. There's nothing like it.

Who are two of your favorite characters?:
Jayne and Kaylee.

What are two of your favorite episodes?:
Jaynestown & Out of Gas.

What's your favorite relationship in the series, romantic or otherwise?:
Simon & River. It's an interesting relationship. Although I like Book's relationship with the crew. He's a mysterious guy.

Do you watch Angel or Buffy as well?: Yes. Both.

Do you think Firefly is as good or better than Joss's previous works (Buffy and Angel)?:
It's as good as Buffy and Angel. Although it has an unusual (but good) quality that makes it stand out more from those shows.

Would you prefer a trilogy of Firefly movies or one movie and a few more seasons of the show on TV?
Do I have to choose? Can I choose a trilogy of Firefly movies and a few more seasons of the show on tv??
