2005 January 29, P. Burrows, “Re: Name for Lost fans?”, in rec.arts.sf.tv (Usenet):(some) Firefly flans call themselves Browncoats (Remember, the hot movie from Universal is out this September! :)
2005 September 11, manosdvd , “Re: MSTies - Find Serenity”, in rec.arts.tv.mst3k.misc (Usenet):You're probably thinking "Brownshirts" which are just an unfortunate comparison. There's still some debate on the name of the fan base, but it's either Browncoats (the independance fighters from the show's history) or Flans... Tasty treat, bad fan name...
