Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Bwah! I love the idea of the Companions' Guild having the same attitude toward porn that modern record companies had towards Napster.

[insert something funny here]

(this is so much fun, we're wandering off topic again... never mind)

I heard that the Pirates bought the Ninjas Firefly DVD's for Christmas.

The Astronauts, however, refuse to belive that Horses In Space could work even in sci-fi, and so are filming a Reality TV show featuring Cavemen and Monkeys.

The Cowboys are wishing they had a spaceship.

Jesus and Santa Claus are preparing for a Live Televised Debate over the existence of the Sta-Puft Marshmallow Man and what, indeed, to do about it.

The Elves and Dwarves have been arguing so much about the ammount of smarm a marmot could snark (if indeed a marmot could snark smarm), that a bloody war has erupted between them, destroying all televisions in the process.

Meanwhile the Robots, having solved the marmot thing, are sitting down with a nice cup of tea.

ETA: Did I miss any?

If I only had a brain...

Oh, come on now. You know the Elves have flat-panel, tastefully mounted into the trunk of the trees.

Yes, but only a few of the Elves know about it.

Isn't that Python ep the Sir Philip Sydey/Superintendent Gaskill one?

YES!!! Hysterical, that one is.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I may be suffering ass-crack flashbacks but I believe The Goodies made mention of a book called "Gay Boys in Bondage".

"It's got to be the hair, Cotton. It's beautiful! Feathered and lethal. You just don't see it nowadays." Pepper Brooks - Dodgeball

Spontaneous simultaneity. It's a thing.

I know the marmots have flatscreen, HDTV, and possibly housekeeping robots. They got to the future before we did.

Probably with plaid ass-less chaps, too, the varmints.

When they re-run Firefly the marmots will be happy.

Were The Goodies pre- or para- or post-Python? I know they all pretty much came out of the same British humor gene pool (Oxbridge/Frost Report).

That should have been "humour", shouldn't it?

They had a massive overlap. Monty Python first aired in October 1969 (and ran until Dec. '74); The Goodies just over a year later, in November 1970 (and ran until Feb. '82). And yes, it should have been 'humour', since that's the correct spelling. t /snobby British
