I wouldn't pin my hopes on a disclaimor put on the show by the network.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.
Quote: Sorry, 'Miracles' may be fine show, but if Firefly doesn't make it, I'm really not interested in supporting another show from the beginning. I think I speak for quite a few people here, in saying that I've never been interesting in 'supporting' television at all.

I think I speak for quite a few people here, in saying that I've never been interesting in 'supporting' television at all. If fact, I didn't show up here to 'support' Firefly - I just thought I saw something really special in it and wanted some community in that experience. Good luck with your site though.

Quote:That being said, ain't no way a show called "Miracles" can best my Firefly. Sounds a little too much like "Seventh Heaven" or "Touched by an Angel" for my tastes.

Quote: LEAP OF FAITH Can Miracles Break Curse on Cult TV? By Matt Roush Just how serious is ABC about Miracles, the new year's riskiest drama? We ask this only because the network is asking us to believe that it will actually stand by a series that is darkly challenging and almost as certain to spark controversy as it is to dwell in the ratings cellar. Miracles (Mondays, 10 pm/ET), best described as a spiritual X-Files, has "cult show" written all over it and will need a proverbial miracle to survive, especially against CBS's CSI: Miami. By asking us to willingly venture into this often spellbinding world of mysticism and apocalyptic portent, ABC must hope we've all had amnesia about the fate of so many of its short-lived mold breakers, from Twin Peaks to, most tellingly, 1997's edgy Nothing Sacred, about a volatile priest. Now, to be fair, cult dramas are struggling everywhere, with Fox's Firefly, UPN's Haunted, WB's Birds of Prey and Sci Fi Channel's Farscape all axed recently. Miracles at least can bank on the brooding star presence of Skeet Ulrich. He brings a dazed queasiness to the role of Paul Callan, a soul-weary orphan whose own religious nurturing led to his calling as a church-sanctioned investigator and debunker of miraculous phenomena. Feeling like "a doctor who never cures anyone," Paul wonders if "maybe we're on our own down here." His crisis of faith is intensified by horrific dream visions and, in the first episode, an encounter with a dying boy who has the power to heal others. Further shaken and alienated from his church superiors, Paul joins a mysterious brotherhood of truth seekers in anticipation of some cataclysmic "large event." Miracles recalls The X-Files's moody tone and ability to sustain wonder amid the trappings of a suspense thriller. But before we get too excited, consider that if The X-Files had aired on ABC, it probably wouldn't have had a prayer.

You don't have to give up on Firefly, I'm not, and the rest o ya are more focused on Saving Farscape rather than Firefly anyway. Alias is NOT a genre show, why does no one understand that?
