Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kind of out of our way and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.
I didn't know why all the Uncharted fans and Firefly fans were clamoring for Nathon Fillion to play Nate Drake. But now that I've seen a clip of the actual show, holy sh*t he does really look and sound like Drake. Why was this guy not the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd choice for Drake?
"This is a holey cleansing you can not thwart gods will" "You see the big man hanging out of the space ship with the really big gun" well hes a little pissed off LOL that says it all.
What I don't get is that, clearly, this show is great. It is just absolutely perfect in every way. Lots of people want it back. So...why, in a world where Seth McFarlane has three shows, does a piece of television gold like this not get renewed? What is that? Seriously. Somebody please explain it to me in a clear and concise way, 'cause I refuse to believe that Stargate's fanbase was strong enough to want Stargate: Universe, but all the Browncoats can get is a single movie?
@ErikMogan Okay, clear and concise (albeit somewhat sad): Large number of people loved the show. But the network did some things that guaranteed it got poor ratings. They aired the episodes out of order. They kept changing the time slot and the night. And they did all of that during the first season, the most essential time in the life of a show. So the show got fairly poor ratings, and its viewer demographic wasn't what fox wanted it to be. (More women responded to it than men.) So they axed it
Can someone help me out here? I can't for the life of me understand what Mal says to Simon at 1:37. I've listened to it over and over and I just can't get it.
guys, we all miss this show, this is why we are trying to bring it back, there is a movement on the way. check this out:
HELP NATHAN BUY FIREFLY on facebook
since nathan fillion mentioned last week if he had 300 mill to buy the rights for firefly back and put it on the net, a movement has formed, on facebook and twitter to gather as many people as possible to donate money to make it happen
awwwwwwwh.. XD so so sooo cute! <3 love the film, Serenity, have done since i was a tiiiny kid.. i know now what i want for my birthday.. thoe whoooole fireflys series on box set!! XD eek! <3 <3
If I hadn't found this show on Hulu, I wouldn't have gotten all the references I've heard from it. I never knew just where "big damn heroes" came from till I saw this episode, and I cheered when I heard Zoe say it (great delivery from Gina T!)
@PhUTube4Evah They aren't really bringing politics into this. They're just saying that River Tam got called a witch and so did Christine O'Donnell. They're just pointing out similarities.
Safe was an interesting episode. I liked the backstory with River and Simon, but i thought the overall episode was weaker (inb4 down votes). However, that scene is one of my favorite scenes in the entire series.
Goddamn, I love this scene. In a single minute, you learn everything there is to know about the characters. Simon's devotion to his sister, to the point of dying for her. Mal doesn't go looking for trouble, but you don't mess with his people.
I love River's line. She says "Time to go"...it seems like she's accepting death, but really she already knows the ship is coming before it arrives. Very clever writing.
I'm supprised that everybody focuses on the Big Damn Heroes line, surely "Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with a really big gun?" Is the best line every written?
Ah, my favirote part of this episode. Simon shows just how much he has gone and how far he is willing to go because of the love of his sister. And the whole 'Big Damn Heros' part. But who ain't not liking that part.
As much as I hate the fact that firefly got cancelled, I'm glad that at least some of the actors went on to find success, like Nathan Fillion in Castel, and Adam Baldwin in Chuck, both of which I am happy to say have not been cacelled yet, and at least adam baldwin pays homage to Jayne on Chuck with great little one liners and a big reference to this big damn heroes moment when he comes down from the ceiling while shooting up the bad guys in the Chuck season 2 finale.
@BornOfSong Amen. The Browncoats have truely done the impossible. Firefly is still one of the best sci-fi shows EVER. HUGE cult following that rivals that of Star Trek or Star Wars. and it only ran for 14 episodes. how many other shows can you say that about?
We truely have done the impossible, and that always WILL make us mighty.
Cus it had a brain, good writing, good acting and it didn't feel the need to strip Zoe down to her underwear to hold viewer interest. It wanted u to think. all these things are poison 2 ur average fox viewer...
Also they aired the episodes out of order, with the pilot episode being the last they aired. Then they wonder why it gets bad ratings. Way to go, Fox - bet you wish you kept it now!
@psychicllamakiller Yes, as soon as something has to resort to fanservice to keep people at the screen, the show has forever jumped the shark, and is beyond help/
man, how many shows have so many just brilliant moments like this? Some episodes were a hoot, some a work of art, some, like this one, both (river dancing is high art, and this bit is just great). "out of gas" is TV art, it really is. love this show.
Awesome Series Own the DVD box Set Great Show to bad it was canceled fyi the dvd box set contains either 2 or 3 episodes that were never aired including "The Message"

A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand;sorry i didnt want that happening to me
Do you all see the man hanging out of the space ship with a really big gun? I'm not saying y'all weren't easy to find but kinda out of our way and he didn't wanna come in the first place, and hes looking to kill some folks. Ha this is an amazing series in which i may not have it on blu ray but i got it.
there are petitions and websites to get the show back on the air, as well as comics that fill in alot of the blanks, like what happens between the untimely end of the series and the movie Serenity. And i do believe there's a new comic out exploring Sheppard Book's history..
OK since you've started reading this its too late to stop. in 2001 a 15 year old girl was killed in a clearing in scotland. nobody knows who or what killed her but there is scratch marks all over her body and she looks horrific. she is said to roam around the world and can go 2 places at once. if you dont post this comment on 5 other videos or websites in ten minutes she will suddenly attack you and kill you in some gruesome way. this is scary coz it happened to my friend. please.

It --although subtle-- swung a bunch of hits on american values and standards, which didn't come off very pleasing to the network directors, and was cancelled.
Basically, FOX is a type of network that wants mainstream shows, shows that really have been done 10 times before just slightly different, but depict a world where american/western (I'm european, not really much difference besides less religious) standards are glorified
It's a shame, but that's how it is, shows that provoke get the boot
Actually, a big part of it was FOX screwing up the order of the episodes and not showing the two part opening episode first. They just dropped viewers in the middle of the series without any explanation of how Simon, River and Shepard Book joined the crew, or Mal and Zoe's history.
"swung a bunch of hits on american values and standards, which didn't come off very pleasing to the network directors"?!? 'cmon dude are u serious? whether poorly promoted, run in the wrong order, poor ratings or any other number of reasons, it got pulled.
I loved the series, I own the DVD set, but I'm not buyin' into all this values/standards hooey.
True, networks squeeze old ideas till no more profits drip; but when they stray from the formula like w/ Firefly, the leash is short, nothing more
lol "shows that provoke get the boot" yeh ok maybe but family guy is still around....saying that doesnt provoke?? sure it got the boot but it is back cos the fans cried so much and the dvd sales were amazing to say the least, so no its not all to do with it supposedly provoking anything. great show though have it and serenity on blu-ray, love them both.
Animated series are easier to pull back on, especially non-linear series' like Family Guy, because actual show order doesn't really matter. Firefly on the other hand...well, it absolutely has to be shown in order, otherwise it won't make sense. And if they bring it back, then they need to get all the actors back. And family Guy had, what, five voice actors?
For what i looked it, Fox aired the show out of order, doing somthing weird like episode 2,3,1,5,4,6 so on and so forth. people watching the show, got lost and didnt think that it flowed well (wonder why).
So a big thank you to the morons at fox, for knowing better then they guy who made networks millions with buffy, and angel.
Such a show. Upset that it didn't run longer, but in a way it makes it more of a gem. If it had kept running, Fox woulda ruined it somehow. This way it has become a legend, like it deserves to be.

man, how many shows have so many just brilliant moments like this? Some episodes were a hoot, some a work of art, some, like this one, both (river dancing is high art, and this bit is just great). "out of gas" is TV art, it really is. love this show.

'...he didn't want to come in the first place. 'Man's lookin' to kill some folk"
That sums Jayne up completely. The man's a champion.

A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand;sorry i didnt want that happening to me

Do you all see the man hanging out of the space ship with a really big gun? I'm not saying y'all weren't easy to find but kinda out of our way and he didn't wanna come in the first place, and hes looking to kill some folks. Ha this is an amazing series in which i may not have it on blu ray but i got it.

there are petitions and websites to get the show back on the air, as well as comics that fill in alot of the blanks, like what happens between the untimely end of the series and the movie Serenity. And i do believe there's a new comic out exploring Sheppard Book's history..

OK since you've started reading this its too late to stop. in 2001 a 15 year old girl was killed in a clearing in scotland. nobody knows who or what killed her but there is scratch marks all over her body and she looks horrific. she is said to roam around the world and can go 2 places at once. if you dont post this comment on 5 other videos or websites in ten minutes she will suddenly attack you and kill you in some gruesome way. this is scary coz it happened to my friend. please.

It --although subtle-- swung a bunch of hits on american values and standards, which didn't come off very pleasing to the network directors, and was cancelled.
Basically, FOX is a type of network that wants mainstream shows, shows that really have been done 10 times before just slightly different, but depict a world where american/western (I'm european, not really much difference besides less religious) standards are glorified
It's a shame, but that's how it is, shows that provoke get the boot

Actually, a big part of it was FOX screwing up the order of the episodes and not showing the two part opening episode first. They just dropped viewers in the middle of the series without any explanation of how Simon, River and Shepard Book joined the crew, or Mal and Zoe's history.

"swung a bunch of hits on american values and standards, which didn't come off very pleasing to the network directors"?!? 'cmon dude are u serious? whether poorly promoted, run in the wrong order, poor ratings or any other number of reasons, it got pulled.
I loved the series, I own the DVD set, but I'm not buyin' into all this values/standards hooey.
True, networks squeeze old ideas till no more profits drip; but when they stray from the formula like w/ Firefly, the leash is short, nothing more

lol "shows that provoke get the boot" yeh ok maybe but family guy is still around....saying that doesnt provoke?? sure it got the boot but it is back cos the fans cried so much and the dvd sales were amazing to say the least, so no its not all to do with it supposedly provoking anything. great show though have it and serenity on blu-ray, love them both.

@xantheus
Animated series are easier to pull back on, especially non-linear series' like Family Guy, because actual show order doesn't really matter. Firefly on the other hand...well, it absolutely has to be shown in order, otherwise it won't make sense. And if they bring it back, then they need to get all the actors back. And family Guy had, what, five voice actors?

For what i looked it, Fox aired the show out of order, doing somthing weird like episode 2,3,1,5,4,6 so on and so forth. people watching the show, got lost and didnt think that it flowed well (wonder why).
So a big thank you to the morons at fox, for knowing better then they guy who made networks millions with buffy, and angel.

Such a show. Upset that it didn't run longer, but in a way it makes it more of a gem. If it had kept running, Fox woulda ruined it somehow. This way it has become a legend, like it deserves to be.

God, I love this show so much. Classic Firefly moment. So unjust that it didn't run longer than it did.
