Count me in! Does it still count even if
I wasn't there at the very beginning? I missed the Train Job because I had to work 
. Since I was a huge fan of Buffy and Angel I really wanted to see it, but I was somewhat skeptical since I had falling prey to the whole 'they had to redo the pilot' thing, not knowing at the time that the Fox execs were, well, Fox execs 
.
Well, eventually one Friday I was at home and saw part of Our Mrs Reynolds. By Out of Gas I was hooked. After the series ended its run on Global/Fox I stayed up until 1:30 am on Sunday night/Monday morning to catch the episodes I missed when they aired on a channel in Newfoundland (they must have had a deal to air a certain number of episodes) so I managed to catch Safe and Shindig (as well as repeats of Out of Gas, Ariel and Serenity).
Until the DVDs came out I relied on my tape collection, unfortunately my evil Alliance-built VCR ate my Serenity/Shindig tape 
.
I lurked around the OB for a long time before signing up, although I never really posted. During one of the times when everyone was talking about where to go if the board was shut down I found my way here and have been here ever since. 
If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do. -"Angel"

Add me!
The previews had me hooked. After I saw the first show, needed a mop for the drool from entrancement.
....so, is it September yet?

My hubby and I were fans from the minute we saw the previews....then screamed at F*X as they mangled the episodes because we heard they were out of order.
We don't watch anything on that network anymore.
....is it September yet?

Me too, and my hubby. We were beside ourselves when we heard Joss had a new series, and then when my hubby found out it was a space western he jumped up & down, grinning & repeating "he got my note!" over and over again. (Not a literal note - an expression of happiness for when something comes out that seems to be exactly what you never knew you always wanted.) We have a picture from the EW Fall TV Preview showing the whole cast taped to the wall in our office.
We taped the Train Job because we weren't home that night, and because we'd just moved into our new home we didn't know yet that our television reception was AWFUL. So we sat through the entire episode just listening to the sound & watching snow w/the occasional glimpse of show. (Lemme tell you, the whole thing made much more sense once we could see it, as well!) In fact, that mishap was the entire reason we got cable; there was no way we were going to miss another episode.
I joined here in March, once it was clear the 'hiatus' was spelling certain death, because the official board was full of too many of the type of people that make me hate chat boards and FFF.net seemed infinitely more human/civilized. It was (and is) actually the only chat board I've ever joined.

My wife and I loved the show from the beginning of Train Job. Actually, the voiceover by Book really got me interested - I loved the 'solar system' part, and babbled incessantly to my poor wife about how nifty it was that they DIDN'T have FTL.
Then they went and changed the voiceover to Mal's, and I figured they changed their minds...ah, well.
After watching Train Job, by the way, my wife and I agreed that it just seemed like the cast CLICKED from the very, very beginning; like they'd been playing these roles their entire lives. Just the magic of Firefly; I think that's a lot of what makes Serenity feel like home.

From the very first preview of the very first episode (well, technically the second episode), I was a fan. I dragged my father into it, too, and he's still waiting for the movie with me.

From Day one, ever since the first ep of Buffy, I been watch Joss's stuff :) I was so excited about Firefly, I even got my friend to name her gerbils Zoe and Kaylee, way back before the big cancellation.

Me. I've been a fan since the first episode of Buffy. Very excided when I heard of Firefly and Joss going into a totally new universe. I turned my friend into a fan of Buffy and Angel. He was ill premier night. We watched Train job in his hospital room. Hooked from the beginning. He definately was in when Mal sent crow into the engine. I don't remember when I found my way here. Only recently did I start talking to people. Im really shy. Got the dvds as soon as they came out. Suncoast misquoted the box set for 19.99 and gave me that price even though I was willing to pay more. Waiting almost patiently for the movie.
