Finally made some new converts

Until last night I could only claim one convert to the 'verse, that being my son. But...last night I invited a friend and his gf over for dinner and a movie, Firefly style.No, we didn't have protein in all the colors of the rainbow. We had some of my dynamite lasagna, but later we sat down to view "Serenity."
I had told him a bit about it before, and he had heard about it but never saw it, and she had never even heard about it. Needless to say, they both enjoyed it a lot. We talked about it for at least an hour afterwards and they will be coming over to see some more eps as soon as our schedules permit. They both work weird hours so I don't know when that will be.
Neither of them have a dvd player so probably won't be buying Firefly for a while, but after I told them how good all the other eps were, and the fact there are extra features and good Joss and cast commentaries on many of them, they kept looking at each other and saying "We've got to get a dvd player soon, don't you think?"
Also, I'm still waiting to hear from an internet friend in Australia, who I finally convinced to get the dvds. Last time I heard he had watched the first two discs, but said he did not want to comment on it until he had watched the rest.
