Whoa, a whole ton of new recruits in here! :) So a big roarin' howdy to everyone just joining in on the fanaticism. Looks like FollowMal is going to be quite busy with the handing out of browncoats when she gets back.

Ain't nothing shinier than seeing the signal still spreading. Keep the faith, spread the word, and hold the line. We'll do the impossible again, 'cause we're so damn pretty... :P

Hey all,

I just joined last week but it didn't occur to me to introduce myself politely... so much for my manners. Anyway I love the show and am thrilled at the prospect of possibly doing something to help bring it back.

Happy to be aboard!

One day.
One mission.
One army of Browncoats.

On June 23rd, we aim to misbehave.

Hey, everyone. I just joined yesterday. Been watching the show about three months now, I reckon. Which means I've seen some episodes more times than I care to count.

I immediately gravitated toward Mal, because his attitude matches my own. In fact, it was a little spooky hearing my thoughts come out of his mouth.

I saw the movie first, and was hooked. It's a rare thing that you see dialogue that good, paired with acting that is that good. With just enough realism to feel...well, real. That little Firefly is a real cozy place. Like to have one myself if it was possible.

I've heard people say they didn't watch the series because they were unclear what it was. Fox did a piss-poor job of promoting this little gem. I thought it was something new-agey. If it had stayed on more than a little while, eventually I would have wandered over by accident and gotten myself stuck there. But they didn't give that a chance to happen, and that's a damned shame.

But here we are all now, ready for battle. From what I see, looks like everyone's holding pretty good. I think Mal would be pleased. Real touched. In fact, I think he is.

So I'm just going to look around some, see what's going on. Oh, about me. I live in a place that looks a lot like some of the Firefly sets, planetside. But I won't be here long. I'm going to Romania for about a year. Talk about life on the Rim! Believe me, there will be some Romanian Browncoats when I'm done. I worked as a journalist for 11 years, which I don't recommend doing, and am now interested in studying business when I get back to this part of the 'verse.

Yeah, I'm new too, even if I am really old. Been a fan of Buffy and Angel for a long time. I've even managed to get my daughter interested in Firefly/Serenity.

I probably read this on a Buffy site somewhere, but it bears repeating. I'd like to thank Joss Whedon for making me care so much about people who don't even exist.

I am new here. I just signed up yesterday. I bought Firefly off of Amazon without having any idea what it was. I bought it because it was a good deal and I like Sci-Fi. Ive watched the whole season in 2 days...woops! I loved it! I now ordered the movie through your links here. I hope there is a Season 2! My only problem is that the last few episodes got darker (I like Sci-Fi for escape, not reality - I like them ending happy). I also have heard that a few "key" characters dont fair so well in the movie. So, I loved the season, but I wonder if there is a season 2, how much it will have in common with the Firefly I have grown to love. It doesnt seem like it could be similar.

Bonsoir everyone and thank you for the welcome I've gotten so far. I got hooked on Firefly recently when a friend showed Serenity at a party. I've since then seen all of the episodes and become addicted to the lovely drug that is Firefly.

Just as a question, anyone know where I can get in contact with a DC/Metro area Firefly group, if there is one?

Have a lovely evening.



One day.

Hey, there, farfly, line up over here for the Silver Fox brigade! No way to be too old for FFly.
Or too new.

Everybody, chow is now.
Y'all step up to the buffet and check out the goodies we've laid out tonight. All the usual stuff you've come to expect, plus caviar from New Melbourne. All the best for this army/crew.
