The Big Bang Theory 5-17-2010 - firefly reference

[toyeen13folayan]

Im kicking myself for never seeing firefly.

[Haldinyar]

@toyeen13folayan I just remedied that, for the past 2 days I hammered out all the episodes. Sooo good.

[23Arshaviin]

Can't believe it got canceled! What a joke. On another note.... Look at Penny's sexy toes :P

[Antichrist2000]

I bet you the cue card guy held up a sign to the audience saying "It was cancelled after the first season" to get that reaction out of the audience because there is no way half of those people knew about that show.

[Azami4117]

I'M DYING INSIDE SOMEBODY HELP

[wvboarder2005]

@Azami4117 Watch Serenity it helps ease the absence of Firefly- until wash dies. :^(

[shellbell1313ss]

Years........yup.

[paulcognito]

(cries)

[darkroselight]

Can't stop the signal!

[nittany272]

Hear that? That's the sound of my heart breaking... -/3

[munkymp3]

I wish it were on for years. BRING IT BACK!

[xXShrinkWrapXx]

I swear by my pretty floral bonnet....I love Sheldon

[DassWarcraft]

@xXShrinkWrapXx hahahaha i love that line in the show

[regina22333]

i cried when sheldon said it'll be on for years. oh sheldon, please create a time machine, go back in time and save Firefly! its up to you!

[wherokee178]

that's exactly how my roommate agreement went. Except it involved big bang theory and game of thrones. lol

[Gir78623]

0:17

*starts crying*

[marcieduchamp]

:'( oh sheldon

[PatHelmsleyisback]

i love the crowds reaction

[50Calabyte]

I love the "ooooooohs" in the audience, like they made some really mean joke!

[S0M3K1ND0FCRAZY]

why? why did they cancel that show? why?

[xannidel]

@S0M3K1ND0FCRAZY Fox felt that the show was not producing enough income even thought the show had quite a large following of fans.

[aamiller90]

Hahaha It's gonna be on for years

[SergeantLouis72]

i like how when he said its gonna last for years, and the audience reaction to it lol

[geekify321boom]

who wrote this scene!? Blue Sun must have done government experiments on his or her brain!

[AnnMegFair]

I love how so many really great shows keep reminding us and everyone else what a completely stupid mive it was to cancel firefly

[RedNativeRose]

@AnnMegFair yeah I know...it happend furing the writers strike

[juniperzowl]

I buried my head in a pillow to keep from screaming.... I wish we could go back to when Sheldon and Leonard met, and keep FIREFLY from getting cancelled

[LLOYD19851012]

This video must be from an alien planet which has 17 months in there year.

[genericname121]

@LLOYD19851012 Or perhaps the uploader is from The United States, where the accepted format is mm-dd-yyyy, as opposed to the European format dd-mm-yyyy.

[GizmoGardenia]

@genericname121 TBBT fans are retarded so be nice

[browncoatemily85]

See, this show is already so fun and inventive. They're continuous references to Firefly and bashing of FOX holds them dear to my heart, right next to a creative and adorable ginger, a dashing cap'n tightpants, and so many other characters that are real and unique from they're first syllable. <3

[randomface54]

DON'T EVEN JOKE ABOUT THAT!

[defenestrator12]

@randomface54 I know the wound is still raw, but good jokes like this help the healing process.

[SuperPrettyCOLORS]

WHY ARE WE ALL TALKING ABOUT RUPERT MURDOCH?

[TheEsperanza243]

@SuperPrettyCOLORS Cuz he owns FOX and FOX cancelled the show.

[franklinchai]

If my mom and sister were raped and murdered by two different guys and those two guys and Rupert Murdoch were locked in a room with me while I have a revolver with only two bullets, I would shoot Rupert Murdoch twice.

[SuperPrettyCOLORS]

@FigmentJedi HA HA, your not funny but the show is.

[AnEvilBastard]

Really still rubbing salt in that wound?

[Hieifireshadow]

The whole crowd was like "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH" when he said it would be on for years.. Waaaaaaaah!

[ItCameFromTheSkyBeLo]

I actually had only just finished the series of firefly for the first time shortly before watching this episode new.... I died a little inside...

[FOTC5]

This actually made me sad.

[ItCameFromTheSkyBeLo]

@FOTC5 Me to bro. It was a kick in the head when I was already down....

[PatryRG92]

what episode is this?



[rghey]

Damn, that stung my heart.

[Reaverhobbies]

LMAO "might as well agree now, itll be on for years" Sheldon's a genious in that he knows how shit is SUPPOSED to go down.

[aeronwyfay]

too soon



[LOLatvid123]

You took the sky from us Murdoch. BUT WE TOOK YOUR EMPIRE!!!! HAHAHAHAHA

[mrbentom09]

if only he had been right :'(

[kolton98766]

breaking news rupert murdoch was murdered last night by a fire fly fan the murderer was let go and givin a heros award for of killing the person who took the sky from us

[Javerna0Kazami]

Take my love take my land...

[taloswiftandlautner1]

THEY FREAKING JYNXED IT THE BASTARDS

[Bogafrog]

I really need moe Firefly....

[manuellopez1956]

Murdoch is getting his well deserved desserts now, and seconds to come I'm sure.

[ElnAlter]

too bad big bang theory is a laugh track filled piece of shit

[Usul573]

@ElnAlter

But we like Big Bang Theory.....

[kates007]

yeah... that one hurt haha

[hardcorehunter1]

FUCK YOU!

[Deadrazorback97]

I love firefly!

[Apolloofthenight]

UMPH!! *knocked down from punch below the belt* that one.... r-really hurt.

[M1K3L392]

It hurts...so bad. QQ

[Aldris247]

Ouch.

[TwilightLuvvverxxx]

aww :((( lol I would've signed that agreement in a heartbeat though. lol

[crookshanks151]

I felt awful when watching this. Let a lone tear fall down my cheek..

Love Big Bang. Love Firefly.

[TheLostGirls2]

Oh Sheldon... If only you weren't wrong... *sniff, sniff*

-J

[Killswitch7900]

:'(

[DreamgirlBlue]

;(.........

[Butcher851]

As i said in another video, everyone loved/loves Firefly except from Fox.

[randomface54]

Jayne! Go get Vera, we need to have a "talk" with Rupert Murdoch. You may also want to bring your chain of command.

[jkwaffle]

@randomface54 "Whats the chain of command? Its the chain i beat you with till you understand that i'm in command." lol, I love Jayne.

[Stargate949]

It should still be on! For years and years to come! but no, reality is a cruel mistress. Isn't it?

[MasaruKato82]

I don't like it when references are made this way. What's the point of anviliciously drop the title? And the author!

Come on, be a little more creative! And sneaky!

Look at Castle's "Halloween space cowboy - space cows" scene, to see what I mean.

[crookshanks151]

@MasaruKato82 That's a brilliant scene! You should watch a collective video of all the references. Castle's pretty clever about slipping them in there :P

[BatmansFavoriteGirl]

BOOM. and with that I now believe they are now Alliance.. just saying. Nathan Fillion telepathically does that when people bash Firefly..

[gunnerblade]

HAHAHAHA!!......awwwww

Now I'm sad......

[xannidel]

Rupert Murdoch!

There is a special level of hell for you, a level they reserve for child molesters and those who talk in the theater.

[manuellopez1956]

@xannidel

the special level would be the throne, wouldn't it ?

[niroj28]

@xannidel Shepherd Book!!! :D I loved that line XD i miss Firefly :(

[ArtInMyHeart285]

@xannidel I JUST watched that episode.

[TheMlleSam]

@xannidel yeah the hell of the deep fries Twinkie !

[computerlover0000]

I want firefly back :( :( :(

[ydnab]

"Might as well settle it now, it's going to be on for years."

Me sadface :(

[kathjeuhh]

Yeah even a genius as Sheldon thought that Firefly would be on for years

:( l wish he was right

[armasuirina]

what episode is this?

[Xhalph]

When I first saw this, my laughter was both uproarious and bitter.

[Lethal2damax]

God dang it. Someone needs to force the Fox executives down in a chair. Mare them watch ever episode of Firefly, every special feature, every reference clip, untill they bring the show back from the dead. with a 3 season locked in contract.

[HDreamer]

@TheEliseSuzanne

I like Castle, but Firefly > Castle and it isn't even close.

[deathglow]

@HDreamer

They're completely different shows. Apples and oranges.

[HDreamer]

@deathglow

It's not, because I am not comparing the shows, but my affection for them. Huge difference.

[Legba85]

269 people agree with me- Fuck Rupert Murdock!!! Bring back Firefly!!!!

[ariharveykinkle]

Is anyone else crying right now?

[ozzytonygeezerbill]

@ariharveykinkle yes

[FelixTheNomad]

That isn't much of a reference. References are supposed to be subtle, not bold statements.

[AnkokuEvangeline]

@FelixTheNomad Well, reference can also be naming the source and all that jazz, for example a reference in a college paper.

[IIFlippy]

Awesome... But sad at the same time.... im so conflicted :(

God I miss Firefly

[Dangturtle]

Fuck you. This show isn't good enough to make fun of Firefly.

:(

Fox can seriously go fuck themselves. Brutus and Cassius will be expelled from the mouth of Satan when the people responsible for cancelling Deadwood and Firefly die. Which if I had my way, would be soon, slow, and violently.

[AnkokuEvangeline]

@Dangturtle They were not making fun of Firefly, it was exactly the oposite. They were ridiculing Fox for canceling such a great show, Sheldon says that multiple times in Big Bang.

[MerryGo528491]

@Dangturtle Dude, I bet you've never even seen Big Bang Theory, it's actually pretty good (my second favorite TV show).

[Dangturtle]

@MerryGo528491 No I have. I just don't like sitcoms in general, the laugh track RUINS it for me, and a lot of the times the jokes on that show aren't that great. It just feels like they are trying too hard to be "nerdy" at times. Especially Sheldon, he's just not a good character IMO.

[MerryGo528491]

@Dangturtle That's because your not smart enough to get their jokes :D. I think their perfectly funny... well, okay, a couple of their jokes are stupid, but the majority of them are funny.

[Dangturtle]

@MerryGo528491 The beauty of being humans is that we don't always have the same taste. It makes life a bit more interesting.

[MerryGo528491]

@Dangturtle Yes.

[SapphireShelle91]

I wish there was a flashback of Sheldon discovering that Firefly had been cancelled.

[Dangturtle]

@SapphireShelle91 Why would you want to see a grown man crying for hours in the shower? It's what I did, I'm sure he would have done exactly the same.

[theGoob713]

Why is it that Firefly got cancled after 14 episodes but the Jersey Shore is still on?

[gnulen]

@theGoob713 the movie idiocrazy explains it

[Raidenko91]

@theGoob713 Take into account that FOX aired the episodes out of sequence, making the plot harder to follow, to the point where the Pilot wasn't even the first episode, and then add in the fact that FOX also didn't like the character Mal, citing that he was too dark. After all that, the loyal fan-base wasn't enough to boost the ratings and the show was dropped. Esencially, FOX clipped the fuse of an M80 having only paid for a Snap.

[V0ice0fReason]

if only that were true... why is it firefly was cancelled and there have been like 15 seasons of the bachler? WHY

[JQXJQ]

Sheldon has no idea what the TARDIS is, so there.

[chickenmonkeystudios]

@JQXJQ yes he does. he stated in a season 1 episode that he watches doctor who every morning on BBCA

[Browncoat1157]

Firefly is going to be re-aired on March 6th at 8p.m. on the Science channel, they just bought the rights. PLEASE TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO WATCH IT BECAUSE IT MIGHT GET SOME HIGHER UP TO REALIZE THEY SHOULD MAKE NEW EPISODES.

TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO WATCH! PLEASE!

[cadlm7]

@Browncoat1157 if this is true, then i must say.... thank you lord!!!,* cough*as my mother would say... xD(sheldon reference)

nah, but for real, if they bought the rights, and have the ability to make firefly air again...... and create new episodes.... then awesome.

[valentine6261]

@cadlm7 its true it says it on the science channel website!!

[gravygwundud]

Why did they cancel such a great show. Why, why, WHHHHHYYYYY!!!!!! :'(

[Usul573]

@gravygwundud

It's dumb, even bad shows get 40 episodes or so often.

[GirlwithSwordandBow]

low blow, show

[4a007]

I was introduced to firefly a few months ago, and it was awesome. I really can't believe they didn't keep that show going.

[Vasun05]

i wish it was on for years, the show was awesome and the future

[Skepticktok]

Ouch...it hurts because it's true.

[griffenrose]

cries

[jjferrit]

i love the audience's "aaaw :("

[NinjaSpartan17]

GORRAM FOX NETWORK

[StaraziaSelin66]

for people who love firefly references, you should really check out ABC's Castle. great series, and the star of firefly (Nate Fillion himself) is on it! :D

[chickenmonkeystudios]

@StaraziaSelin66 it should also be mentioned that he stars in castle also. since he is in fact frank castle

[aussiegooner]

@chickenmonkeystudios

holy moly, beckett's partner is the punisher!

[Bleakverse]

*cries for firefly not being on for years*

[ksetzler042]

Oh, I just cried a little.

[Jayda45]

*shudders* it still hurts so much... ouch...

[MrEvil37]

I wonder what the Fox Execs who cancelled it think now.

[StupidFatFag]

Firefly forever!

[Apolloofthenight]

damn you Fox! they only bout firefly so no one eals could have it then they screwed them over!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM!!!!!!?!!!

[xYaniis96x]

I love Firefly!!!! It should never have been cancelled, cause it ROCKS!!!!!

[xYaniis96x]

I love Firefly!!!!

[Astowhy]

Firefly rocked

[xxGitty101xx]

That...*gasps*... Stings...

[TheKingofnoob]

This fucking hurts, man.

[ItCameFromTheSkyBeLo]

I qq'd

[nonohino]

Firefly gets shot down...but big bang theory remains...I...my...it's just so.

No justice people! There is no justice in this world!

[BLARGandMARTY]

I was rather ticked off when it was canceled. But that's funny.

[tehBLAX]

@BLARGandMARTY ye same what dickhead cancel a great show.... fucking fox

[Moon3point0]

Ouch! That one hurt!

[TheMonkeyFuzz]

If only...

And the audience 'aww'd. I joined them there.

[dudeball2002]

Son of a Bitch!!

[mynamesmiked]

0 dislikes. YOU SEE THAT, FOX!? YOU BASTARDS!!!

[zsaphiro1]

my heart just broke all over again...

[TCLovesCheese]

LMFAOOOO!

[thanatrell]

that's cold, man. Uncool

[mykicks2]

Lol man I hate these nerds but that cracked me up lol...I started watching firefly on hulu last year just for summer glau and I liked it even bought the movie serenity...really cool btw...and I started watching dollhouse for summer but damn it got cancelled lol eliza is a babe btw

My last show I watch is fringe it rocks!

[Grubbo]

Usually I find audiences on these sorts of shows incredibly annoying, but man...I'm right there with them. "Might as well settle it now; it's going to be on for yours." "Awwwwww!!!" Yeah :(

[Grubbo]

@Grubbo Er, "for years"

[supermanoftheoc]

This makes me laugh to keep from crying. I have to go watch all of my Firefly DVDs now.

[theHERMITLADY]

@supermanoftheoc I concur!

[WingZero91]

that hurts :'(

[Bladerunner93]

Frankly, the joke was too obvious to be funny

[Hootshot112]

Firefly sounds SO AWESOME. I don't want to buy the first season cuz I know I'll be hooked up and then what? No other seasons. Battlestar galactica had 4 seasons and damn, time fly by so fast!

[TekelBrighteyes]

@Hootshot112 Actually, the entire series, which I think was the first season, comes in one set. They finish it with the movie Serenity.

[MistaBlank79]

I love the firefly reference, but this kinda makes me sad.

[teamXtremerulzz]

Ohhhh...I agree with that crowd...that's just painful. And I only just learned about Serenity first and then Firefly 5 months ago. =( Bring back Firefly!!

[EternalSailorKitsune]

I've had to explain this joke way too many times, which makes it all the sadder

[ZeMostAmazing]

this had me rolling around laughing and I've never even watched Firefly, because the internet is just full of disappointment and anger over cancelling it xD

[ElphabasDDX]

@ZeMostAmazing Watch it. you will understand the pain. It was brilliant and way ahead of its time. 

[erikssiren]

I love that the audience got it

[soradg]

Aww. This made me even sadder about the cancellation. I almost wish I'd never watched it so I couldn't have fallen in love with it. Almost.

[badger4obama]

Well that's just a punch in the stomach to the Browncoats! "It's gonna be on for years"... ouch.

[VeryAngryCamel]

Ruperrt Murdoch!

CURSE your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

[Hootshot112]

@VeryAngryCamel inevitable? I thought that cancellation was unexcepted (ergo that's why so many people are pissed off) BUT I dunno for sure, I never watched it yet. Just saw the movie (that was awesome btw!)

[TekelBrighteyes]

@Hootshot112 lol Go out and rent the series. I thought it was even better than the movie.

[cornishphilosopher]

@VeryAngryCamel Ha ha ha

Mine is an evil laugh

[Surviveandcharm]

it should have been on for years!!!!!!

damn you rupert murdoch

[maddietrout]

;_;
