Are there any other Browncoats here on Fluther?
Firefly would have to be one of my favorite shows of all time. I only discovered it after it was cancelled (damn you Fox!!!). Thank the gods that they came out with Serenity. So I’m wondering if there are any other devotees of Captain Tightpants and the rest of his crew. How many of us are there do you think?
(I’ll be in Jayne’s bunk while I’m waiting for the answers!!)

Yes! Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Are you excited for Dollhouse this fall? I am!
Oh am I ever, lets hope this is a series that Joss will be able to keep going without the networks sticking their oar in!!
From looking at interviews, he seems to think it will be different this time. Also the Fox blog basically promised not to cancel before the end of the first season and acknowledged the horrible problems with Firefly and how it was handled, so I have hope.
Ah, but can we believe Fox? Dare we?!!!
I know nothing of what you speak. I did look at the Firefly website and it looks pretty cool, especially since Ron Glass is in it. It will take some reading to figure out what you are all excited about, but I will tune in to Dollhouse if you say so….
by the way, who is Jayne and is there room for more in her bunk??
@Sueanne_Tremendous Jayne is a boy. And there is always more room in his bunk.
@Sueanne_Tremendous Jayne is played by Adam Baldwin, and let me tell ya, I wouldn’t kick him out of bed if he farted!!
I got turned on to Firefly by a friend after the fact and it’s now one of my all time favorites.
Fantastic writing and characters!
I think I love you syz!!!
mines in storage in my closet.
Well get it out ninjaxmarc, it’ll do ya no good in there if Captain Tightpants comes calling!!!
Browncoat right here! I’m actually starting to play the role-playing game with a couple of my friends…
We’re all big damn heroes.
<3 JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYNE.
Damn right asmonet. You folks make sure to avoid them reavers!!!
I saw Serenity before I even knew about firefly, and it became one of my favorite movies. Then I saw firefly in its entirety, and now its definitely one of my favorite shows of all time.
Yeeeehaaaaa, another BDH just joined our fold…
I like Firefly and Serenity a lot.. however, it’s been a while since I watched it and I don’t get the browncoat reference.. would someone explain?
The people fighting against the Alliance were nicknamed the Browncoats. (This is the side you want to be on)
Ah, okay. I have no recollection of that. Thanks. :P
Eh, don’t worry. took me a few re-watchings to figure it out too :)
I love that bit, we will rule over all this land, and we will call it….... this land. LMAO
juggle any geese lately?
YES! YAY JOSS WHEDON and the best TV show that has ever aired! ! ! River: I can kill you with my brain… Also, Dr. Horrible’s Singalong blog was pretty amazing. Nathan Fillion as Captain Hammer. UBER COOL! ! !
Wahoo, another browncoat!! A question for you mrswho, are you a BDH?
BDH? I suppose not… (what exactly does that stand for?)
@mrswho: Oh my gorram heart!!! How can you not know what BDH is?!!!! Do you remember the episode called Safe, the one where they deliver the cattle and then Simon is kidnapped, along with River, because the people want a doctor? Captain Tightpants has to make the decision to leave them because Shepherd Book had been shot and they needed to get him help ASAP? Then they come back to find Simon and River, just as River is about to be burnt at the stake, when Mal and Zoe come in to save them making them BDH, which is short for big damn heroes. Please, please tell me you remember that episode Tantigirl is about to curl up in the corner in the fetal position sucking on her thumb because mrswho doesn’t remember what BDH is…
We’re all BIG damn heroes.
Yeah!!! I have a good explanation! I moved recently and misplaced all my DVDs, so its been a few years since I’ve seen that episode! My memory is problematic, no power in the verse seems to help it. Forgive me please :D
If you’re in the US this might interest you! :D
You’re Welcome.
@mrswho: okay then, all is forgiven. You know I was on the verge of hyperventilating, my husband had the paper bag ready and everything!!! Stick with us fluther browncoats, see how we look after each other? Asmonet is making sure you can get your fix!! ;)
That’s what I am, an enabler. ;)
Count me in. I watched the series from the very beginning, and the movie. I have everything on CD.
I’m not sure about Dollhouse, just because it’s the same actor doesn’t mean it will be anywhere near as good as the stories and writing was on Firefly.
@YARNLADY: Actually… Alan Tudyk joining as Alpha made the series for me.
@YARNLADY You love the series and the movie, so therefore, by definition, I love you!!! I also agree about Dollhouse. Not impressed by it all I’m afraid.
Love that show! Only found it on Hulu long after it was over. I think I watched the whole series in three nights. Love it!
