browncoats have bucks

By now, my readers should be more than aware of the fact that I am a proud Browncoat – I missed Firefly when it first aired on Fox, but on my parents’ urgings, I found the DVDs, and I am pretty sure I watched the entire series all the way …

Thankfully, this is not a concern for me, from various directions, but I have to admit that it would factor in:

unstoppable signal

I know I expressed some interest in the “Help Nathan Buy Firefly” movement in the past, but it has often been said that I get easily distracted by bright and shiny things…

At any rate, here is the most-recent update from said organization:

1. The idea here is to

help nathan buy firefly

On the one hand, it could be very easily argued that I am remarkably behind the curve on this, especially given my status as a Browncoat.

On the other hand, I was biding my time to see where this might go, and whether or not it was even going to …

good for you

“All the protein, vitamins and carbs of your grandma’s best turkey dinner, plus fifteen percent alcohol.”

Fellow Browncoats will be able to place that quote and identify its originator, but for the uninitiated out there, Jayne Cobb was describing a concoction known as “Mudder’s Milk”, for which Clay McClure of …

just throwing it out there

If I were able to push the price of Everything I Need to Know About Life I Learned from Firefly down to somewhere around $11-12 shipped, as opposed to its current CafePress price of $16.25 shipped, would anyone be more-interested in purchasing it? The only catch (and there is always

the birth of simon jester

I am not entirely sure how I missed this, but Tim Minear’s (of Angel, Firefly, and Dollhouse fame) big-screen script for The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress is online and available for your perusal.

Unfortunately, it is not likely to ever see celuloid for a whole host …

two by two

If I thought this stood a snowball’s chance in a fusion reactor of actually working, I would be onboard in a heartbeat:

So, awhile back, there was a show called Jericho. It was about some post-apocalyptic world or something with nukes… the point is, it had a fan following. Then,

pay 1, tap: regenerate target series

Castle“, “Dollhouse“, and “Chuck” are renewed (the last two are going to have to deal with budget cuts, though). Additionally, a remake of “V” has been picked up by ABC, including two folks off Firefly.

Thanks to a recent sale jogging my memory, I would just like to take a second to remind everyone that my little book, Everything I Need To Know About Life I Learned From Firefly (Third Edition), is still for sale over at CafePress. Reviews of the book are …

dressing up ken

Well, without being too spoilerific, I have ot admit I am somewhat surprised at the choice of actors to play Alpha in “Dollhouse”. Do not go looking it up yourself, if you do not want to ruin the surprise, but suffice to say, it is interesting…
Unfortuantely, the season finale …

crappy town

Some highly-skilled, intelligent, dexterous men grow up to be doctors, and have hamsters named after them.
Some knuckle-dragging, barely-civil, abusive bastards grow up to be knuckle-dragging, barely-civil, abusive bastards, and have a town named after them (and a song, and a statue).
Luckily for those of us without the prerequisite …

well that explains a few things

As a long-time Browncoat who has watched both Serenity and the entirety of Firefly far too many times (speaking of, I need to break them out again sometime soon), I confess to being somewhat embarassed for not having caught this cross-story tie-in before. Consider this image:

Browncoats like me will …

terminated

I am a little behind the curve on this, but Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (otherwise known as Summer Glau Kicks Everyone’s Asses) will not be returning for a third season. I cannot say as though I am terribly surprised, and Lanie’s webpage adequately documents why – no …
