Sign me up. I was skeptical about the show, (after hearing rumors that it was "less funny" than Buffy and Angel -- ha!), but I couldn't hold on to skepticism for too long. I'll never forget the first commercial break of the Train Job. I turned to my husand and said, "Am I going out of my mind, or were they speaking Chinese??"

But let's not forget that newbies and DVD recruits are just as cool if not cooler than us old fogies!

From the first U.S. aired episode-which we know now wasn't the pilot...i was hooked and knewit would be entertaining cuz it is Joss, after all. For the first time, felt the need to write Fan Fiction...huh, wonder why?

Fan from the beginning here as well. Actually remember a mag article before the "pilot" aired. Which, incidently reffered mostly to Serenity, and not The Train Job...

I'm here too.

Hooked on Buffy, then Angel. Heard of Joss' name attached, and tuned in for the first episode, then got worried 'cause I thought I'd missed a week. . .

Add four - I was hooked from the first commercial, it took Train Job to hook my 2 kids and husband. I was SOOOOOOO upset when they "hiatused" it, and bought the DVD the first chance I got. I remember being really confused about the "girl in a box" they'd kept referring to in the commercials, until they FINALLY showed Serenity. I love my DVD set - it's made several converts, and the series makes SO much more sense in order! And I can get a REALLY good look at Jayne's cunning hat - I finally found the right color yarn!! WOOHOO!

I was, too. I remember loving "Train Job" and being very confused between Dobson and Jayne, for some odd reason. I still have the episodes on tape cuz that was the easiest way of seeing them.

Add me to the registry. I watched the Train Job, and then hunted down a murky copy of the original cut of Serenity on the Internet. The file was made from a VHS copy of a copy of a copy.... I actually still like that cut a bit better then the one that finally aired.

Me. I'm one of the unfortunate ones who saw Train Job first and Serenity last, hence making me confused for a good while, and spoiling some of Serenity's finer twists. And then having to face the heartbreak of my favorite show ever being cancelled before getting even a full season.

My wife and I were hooked from the time we saw Mal "feed the engine". Of course trying to catch the show instead of MLB playoffs were the toughest part.
