Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I don't remember the voiceovers from network tv, and don't have access to the SciFi shows. Do they add to the shows? Are they nice? Are they throughout the shows?

Yeaaaah. I worry if it won't drive some folks off. Also, there's that whole, "It's not like Universal decided to do the movie because the fans asked really nicely" thing. I found the interviews kinda grating. I think if I saw that, with no knowledge of the movie, I'd be like, "Those people are sketchy. I don't think I want to see a movie they like."
Of course, when I watched "Trekkies," I turned to my friends and said, "The way I see these people is how normal people see me, isn't it? No wonder nobody liked me in school."

The evil is this way?
The website says it's showing at some AMC and Regal theaters now.
I saw it last night. Nice that Joss and the gang get some publicity, but I was a little chagrined at the "it's all due to the fans" because, well, no. But it's part of the publicity hook, and as long as the movie does well and there's more, then the hype does not bother me too much.

My favorite part was, "after only 11 episodes, Firefly was mysteriously pulled from the air."
There's nothing mysterious about a network cancelling a show that hemmorhaged millions. It's pretty unmysterious.

Yeah, that made me guffaw in the theater. Like maybe they needed to hire CSI to come look for clues. "Look there's the corpse of 'Firefly' with a ratings book next to it." "Think it could be the murder weapon?"

What is even happening?
With the MLB post-season as an accessory before the fact?

All this time, I thought Hunter was a bitch. Turns out she was just hungry.

So that's why, when I tried to tape Firefly, I got besubaru on my tape instead.

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Like... I guess it's MYSTERIOUS if you're STUPID. I don't know.
