I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains  

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.

move out and draw fire

Yep. We've been sitting around today going, "You know what I wanna watch? I wanna watch S2 of Firefly."

Wrod. I am, upon occasion, selfish and greedy that way.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

From a very recent Gary Numan Q&A:

Did you watch any sci-fi on TV last night?
(Kerry Malenkova, Canada)

GN: "I didn't watch anything because I was working but we use Sky Plus so we can record and watch in our own time. Last night we recorded 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'Prison Break'. I'm not a very big sci-fi fan, to be honest, and haven't been for twenty years or more. I do like 'Battlestar Galactica', though. My favourite ever sci-fi series was 'Firefly' but they only did one series and it got cancelled. It's brilliant; that new film 'Serenity' comes from it. One of my biggest albums ['Replicas] was loosely based on sci-fi but that was about 27 years ago. People associating me with sci-fi has gone on longer than I expected. Assumptions become accepted as fact, like people think I'm miserable... well, if they think of me at all (laughs)."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I have a friend I got hooked on "Firefly", so of course she saw "Serenity". We were discussing it and she said she really loved it. So much so that she wanted to have Joss Whedon's babies. I told her she'd have to get in line.

It just occurred to me that Firefly in England would have had about a normal one season run in terms of the number of episodes. Funny how you get used to 22 episode seasons.

Granted it didn't have such a definitive conclusion as, say, Wonderfalls, but "Objects in Space" wasn't a terrible last episode for the series.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

If anyone needs an extra (loaner) copy of the DVDs, it's 50% off at Amazon right now....

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

I've stopped loaning my extra set--to friends who have Comcast, that is. I give them Orville Redenbacher's and soda if they promise to order Firefly On Demand, or Serenity on PPV.

Just watched Out of Gas. Man, I miss this show.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Firefly would tend to be much longer than an English series.. We're normally about 6 episodes a series. If we're lucky we get two series of something in total, so 12 episodes.

All is well that ends in pizza.

At least the new Dr Who incarnations are 13 ep series/season.
