I'll forgive FOX seventy times seven... if they repent. But they never do. Instead they proceed to cancel yet another show you like, just to show you.

I say, let's moon em! :)

I know you dont forgive FOX for canceling Firefly, I understand. But I think it's time to stop using FOX as a swear word, T:TSCC is on FOX, so is BONES and the upcoming Dollhouse. Everytime FOX cancels a show you like, GET THE FUCK OVER IT!!!!!!! ABC, NBC and CBS does'nt get this kind of grief

You obviously have not watched the Firefly dvd set. Watch it and listen to the commentary. Then you will be properly educated without coming in and posting an ignorant dumbass thread like this.

FOX did not just cancel Firefly. They had Joss completely change the way that the series was to be show. Do you read a book and start at chapter 12, then read chapter 3, and then just for fun read chapter 1 but decided to not read the whole chapter and instead opt for just putting it down for awhile. Oh don’t actually answer that question whozit, the intelligence that you portrayed with the first post shows that you could possibly see this as completely normal. It was merely just a statement.

FOX told Joss that they did not like the pilot episode and wanted a different one. That’s where the “Train Job” episode comes from, which was written in a weekend. Then FOX, being the great geniuses of that they are, decided that the original pilot episode was to long and needed to be split into 2 parts. What FOX did by butchering the order that Firefly was meant to be played in the cursed it. People who I know that did not like the series when it was on FOX, but have now seen the episode in continuity, the way that they should and were meant to be shown, love the series. FOX’s decisions caused people to not know who the characters are, what are they doing, and why the hell it looks like some western / science fiction / slight Star Wars feel. So they did not watch, and FOX not knowing why no one was watching, canceled the show.

FOX did more then cancel Firefly, the fucked them, then fired them. Kind of like your mom, sorry I had to fit that one in there couldn’t help it.

With that I end with a simple 2 words of FUCK FOX

You know, in looking at all the replies to your dumbass comments, I see that you have not replied to anyone. Is it that you have forgotten of you stupidity or simply that you can not read and the person that you hired to type what you dictated is now dead or actually watched the series after hearing what you said and then they too realized that your knowledge of the matter is, for a lack of a better word, bull shit.

This part of your post was good, but the fact that you felt the need to resort to name calling ruined it for me.

Again, please don't resort to trollish behavior. Let's all try to keep this civil please.

How 'bout instead of us hatin' on each other we hate on the corporate mindset that places profits over anything, especially quality and intelligence.

Infighting is another thing the Alliance/Blue Sun folks love; if we're engrossed in petty quarrels we perhaps won't notice how badly we're being humped.

FOX wants us to stay stupid and pulls shows that threaten to have us thinking for ourselves.

I think this is the most name calling and harshness I've seen around here in awhile.

It makes me uncomfortable and makes me not want to hang around this place I used to call home.

Shows get made, shows get canceled, shows do well and go on for awhile. Networks replace them, time passes and folks find things to interest them once again. This is the way of it. It's called business and it's the way the world works. Like it or no.

It's still not a reason for folks around here to be unkind to each other. This is a forum where we used to be able to express ourselves without resorting to name calling and ugliness. Where we accepted differences of opinion and let each other be ourselves.

I miss those days.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the "Bush Administration" conspiracy theory. Seeing how Joss' Alliance/Blue Sun quest for control of it's citizenry so closely mirrors the Administrations desire to remove our freedoms and civil rights while controlling the masses with mindless drivel.

Somebody may have noticed and pressured F** to intentionally screw it up. We've all seen how the Bushies deal with their enemies.
Luck for us, Browncoats die hard.

That's my girl, that's my good girl.

Guys come on, you have to lighten up some. This site is fun. Just because people call people names, or pick on someone else because they have different views on something, doesn’t mean it’s the end of the world. What I was saying about the person that made the first post was supposed to be humorous.

Honestly, for this stuff to make you uncomfortable, you may want to consider not hanging around. I’m not saying this to harass you are to pick on you. I’m just saying don’t get so worked up over something this trivial. If your expecting for people who disagree not to start ribbing on each other then your living in a dream world. It’s going to happen, not just here, but every where.

Please people, just relax a little bit. I’m probably more upset about the whole political post that someone put up more then I am the person that posted the original thread.
--if you don’t know what my signatures means then look it up and then you’ll see why, modern day politics has less of a place in this forum then any comments made good or bad, mean or happy that have to do with FF.
