I'm a NOOB too. My 16 year old daughter dragged me to see the movie and before I knew it I was ordering the Firefly DVD. We watched it together over a week and I really enjoyed it.
The writing is smart and witty and I have really enjoyed the character development. The scripts assume you have some brains and can think unlike most shows.
The acting is great all around and I've enjoyed seeing some nice new male faces. As a woman I really enjoy "Captain Tight Pants" 
It's like reading a good book-you just want to see it over and over again. I lent the DVD's to a coworker and she promised they would be back tomorrow so I could revisit Serenity again.
Help me I need a quote!

To ncbrowncoat,
what kind of quote are you looking for, who's your favorite character? what's your favorite episode?
one of my favorites is this one: "MAL:
You risked enough flying in there
once. And I don't wanna get
slapped around no more." or "MAL
Nice shot.
JAYNE:
(slurred)
I was aimin' for his head." or any variation of.
JOSSISAGOD,
"Dammit Mal, I forgot my line!" Adam/Jayne-outtakes

Welcome Jayhawk! I too am fairly new to the Firefly universe. I got hooked by the movie, rented the DVDs and simply fell in love with all of the characters.
I hope Sci-Fi revives it like they did with Stargate...

Thanks so much for all the kind words from everyone! It's great to know that there is a place I can go where people have the some love, desire and fire for a little show called Firefly.
I finished watching the last episode last night, Objects In Space, and truely am saddened now that it's over. I spent quite a while going through the extras, which were amusing. I'm definitely going to check out some of the extra material you kind people have suggested. I've already joined the Browncoats.
How long have the Dark Horse comics been out? What are the chances of finding them locally, or am I going to have to order them? (I live in the Kansas City area).
I guess I need a quote too! 
How's this:
Zoë: Shepard, isn't the Bible kind of specific about killing?
Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

Don't matter if your coat is new and shiny, or all worn and scuffed up. Long as it's brown, you're welcome here.

Ain't about you, Jayne. It's about what they need.

Welcome to the site Jayhawk35! Glad to have you aboard. 
Thanks for sharing how you came to discover Firefly. I wouldn't dread watching that last episode if I were you. You can always buy your own set of the DVD & watch them over & over again. I have gone through the whole series more than two dozen times. I never get tired of watching it either.
A shame you may miss out on Serenity on the big screen, but it sounds like you have one heck of home entertainment system anyway. 
The DVD for Serenity is due out in the states on 12/20. If you miss it in theatres you can pick up a copy and watch at home.
Take care, best wishes to the wife & new addition. Keep Flyin'!

It's shiny! I like meeting new people, they've all got stories -- seriously though, glad you're all here! Welcome to the 'verse, and spread the word to everyone you know! That increases our chances of getting more of this great show/movie.
I give to you the Seeker of Serenity, the Valkyrie Warrior, the Gourmet Cook and the Truth Scoper.

Welcome Jayhawk
My coat still may be relatively new itself but i'm loving the number of new converts that have been arriving on these shores as of late, it's a very good sign.
Even though you may be sad to see the last episode of firefly it's was well worth watching isn't it.
