Well, that's assuming you become fannish about either of those shows--do you think it's likely that you would? And if you did, would that mean having to give up Firefly?
For me, it's entirely possible to be a fan of a show and not become fannish over it. Obsession is the exception, rather than the rule. For example, I am a loyal BSG addict to the bitter end (despite some of the recent lousy writing)--but it just doesn't inspire me to write fanfic or make vids, icons, etc. Basically, it's an hour-a-week commitment.
Maybe you should take Doris up on her offer. If you think you're getting sucked in, just take a deep breath and enjoy it for what it is. No need to go hunting down the nearest comm. Who knows? It might even strengthen your Firefly-love. :)
