    Firelfy DVD

    I'm pretty darned excited :D Those 3 ("Trash", "The Message" and "Heart of Gold") weren't aired by FOX but they have aired in the UK and will air on the Canadian SPACE channel which starts showing Firefly in September. I'm actually holding out for a Region 2 or 4 release -- I find FOX PAL DVD...

    New start date for S2

    To gauge the quality of Showtime's treatment of Jeremiah, you'd have to study how they treat all of their other series. Remember: premium cable is a vastly different ballgame from advertiser-based TV. Also, don't mistake the distributor for the broadcaster -- they are distinct entities even if...

    New start date for S2

    I think SciFi had better keep its skeezy mits of my Jerry! Haven't they ruined enough good SciFi already? :mad:

    New start date for S2

    Premium cable doesn't work like that -- they can order how ever many episodes they want and they can show them whenever they want. Just look at the episodes orders and showtimes for "The Sopranos" or "Sex and the City" and you'll see what I mean. As for confidence -- I believe it was either MGM...

    I'm speachless: Sci-Fi's New Programing

    Re: I\'m speachless: Sci-Fi\'s New Programing You guys should get yourselves Canadian satellite -- there are currently 4 channels rerunning DS9 up here :cool:

    New start date for S2

    I am puzzled :confused: And befuddled. The pretext of Sweeps is for the networks to set the rate they charge advertisors for each timeslot. Showtime, like HBO, doesn't have advertisors -- it draws its revenue from subscriptions. Therein lies my confusion (and befuddlement) -- why would Showtime...

    Why isn't SciFi showing the last 2 eps of "Roar"?

    FIREWALL!!!

    ...which is what I meant about "The Coming of the Shadows" :rolleyes: It's not a plot-wise thing -- it's the ep of a series where you feel that something just clicked and you begin to see not just the potential for greatness but a ray of that greatness itself. Now if you'll excuse me I have to...

    FIREWALL!!!

    Yeah. I usually liken "Firewall" to "The Coming of the Shadows" in how it makes me feel y'know like just ... yeah. That whole scene with Markus and Jeremiah arguing is one of my favourites: Jeremiah's just throughing a fit ang Markus is trying to keep himself rational then he just novas into...

    Firefly, WTF!

    Oops, drippy sarcasm :p Just let me mop that up with The Mop of Sincerity. *mop* *mop*

    Firefly, WTF!

    :lol: Or the other way around -- genetics is a tricky business ;) Except for the network executives that actually make the decision as what stays on the air based on the numbers they get from the Nielsen families. The ozone layer is not, to my knowledge, a sentient entity and thus will not be...

    Firefly, WTF!

    What is this "we", white man? I'm Canadian :cool: Others? But there in lies the rub -- you could convert hundreds, all of which would be irrelevant if they didn't have a magic box. But, wait, you say, eventually all these people would reach enough people with magic boxes. In the four monthes...

    Firefly, WTF!

    Just to clarify: When one says that set X is to blame for action Y this implies that every member of set X is responsible for action Y. Go find yourself an American fan of any show Farscape, Firefly, Crusade, whatever that's been cancelled because of low rating. And by fan I mean a person who...

    Firefly, WTF!

    Blaming all Americans for the demise of any show is ... inaccurate. We have seen time and time again that the actual opinions of the actual American public don't actually matter -- the only ones whose opinions do matter are those blessed with Nielsen boxes. Everytime a show is cancelled fandom...

    Firefly, WTF!

    While were making lists, here's mine: 1. Crusade & Firefly (don't ask me to choose -- I worship at the twin altar of Joss and JMS) 2. EZ Streets 3. Earth 2 4. Dark Angel (from the 1st season, the 2nd season was the creative equivalent of the last 2 season of the X-Files :rolleyes: I just...

    Ack! :eek: I'm still traumatized by the "Council of Elrond" spoof from when the Fellowship was nominated.

    Oh, it was great fun. My thoughts in no particular order: - Ack! Never, never, ever trust pouty brunettes in slinky black dresses wearing do-me slingbacks :rolleyes: - Fortune cookie -> very clever - Doggy! :lol: - blipverts & muzak -> stylin' - "Your dog is using my cat as a shag toy!" :lol...
