How You Have an Impact on the TV and Movie Industry
Some flick fanatics may get their fix from Netflix these days, but that requires waiting for a disk to become available and to be dispatched by mail to your house.
A real film buff wants to be ready to sit on the settee in front of their Hi-D television and have access to quality films all of the time. It’s much better to be in a position to flip through premium picture channels and pick out a new hit on HBO than it is to drive to the store and search for something, hoping it’s in stock.
Firefly is a dramatic comedy set in space with the feeling of an old American Western film. The show is set in the future, the year 2517. The earth we now inhabit has been overrun, overworked and abandoned. The human race has arrived and settled into a new star system.
Firefly centers around an ensemble cast of the nine folk who work and live on Serenity, a firefly-class rocket ship. When pitching the show to Fox, Whedon described them as “nine people looking into the blackness of space and seeing nine different things”.
Despite being helmed by Joss Whedon and produced by Fox, Firefly was had a meeting with a less than stellar reaction. The show tended to average only 4.7 million viewers per episode and never managed to rank above 98 in the Nielsen Ratings. Having only been on air for three months, Firefly was cancelled in December of 2002. Only eleven of the fourteen produced episodes ever saw air.
straight after it’s cancellation, a loyal Firefly fanbase calling themselves “Browncoats” emerged. The Browncoats, named after the show’s group of wrestlers for autonomy, put forth their best efforts to keep their show from oblivion. They banded together to start a postcard campaign and raise money to place an advertisement in Variety magazine.
Regardless of their best efforts, the cancellation of Firefly stuck but their efforts did cause a quick release for the show onto DVD. Due largely to the Browncoat’s continuing fan activities, Universal Studios Hollywood optioned a ‘Firefly’ feature film. With all nine main characters reprising their roles, the film ‘Serenity’ was debuted at number 2 during it’s first week of release ; September 2005, an insignificant 3 years since the series’ commenced.
