Thank you, meimeimeg, I try every chance I get, I really do.
I also bought a Fullscreen copy of Serenity today... just to compare, I already have the widescreen copy. I know, I know... but every little bit helps.
You're right...about the buying Serenity after Christmas.. I plan to buy Serenity and Firefly all year as gifts every month. I have lots of family and friends, and I'd be buying them a gift anyway... what better gift can I give them but this wonderful 'verse.
And I LOVE ramen noodles

Had to go to the local Wally World after work to pick up a few things and I went by the electronics area. Couldn't find Serenity anywhere-no Firefly either. Clerks were busy so I couldn't ask either.
Recommended Firefly/Serenity to a LCSW (licensed social worker-he specializes in counseling teenagers and is in a practice with other LCSW's, psychiatrists and developmental pediatricians) that I know. I'm interested to see his opinion of Summer's portrayal of River.
I also keep looking at the Plasma/LCD TVs to see if they have gone down in price any. I'm lusting after one like I lust after Nathan!

Good news on this end. My girlfriend just walked in and gave me a birthday present 2 weeks early - the new SERENITY dvd!!! She picked it up at Target, I'm not sure how they were on stock...
For background, I'm a new fan. I never even knew about the original series because I hardly ever watch TV. I was hearing good things about FIREFLY on a gun forum that I frequent so my interest was piqued, and then when I saw the movie I really wanted to check it out.
The aforementioned *great* girlfriend got me the FIREFLY dvd series for Christmas. We watched all of it this week and we are both hooked!!! She loves it as much as I do.
It is a travesty that a show this good has ended. I'm heartbroken.

For what it's worth, the Sam's Club in my city (Irvine, CA) has prominently displayed Serenity near the front of their DVD section ever since it was released.

It was discussed in several threads on SigForum.com (site dedicated to Sig Sauer pistols).

Well I saw some of the eps when they originally aired (hell, i still have 3 recorded) and I got the DVDs the Christmas of '03, been in love since then. Anyhoo, got Serenity, and another copy of Firefly for Christmas... so now i have a lending set :)
Just today, my friend who'd really wanted to see it gave it back to me (she watched it over Christmas, loved it o'course) and it was so liberating to not have to think twice about giving it to the next person who wanted to borrow it: a fan of cowboy bebop (kinda-sorta similar anime show, good to bring up with anime fans) who was interested. Ever since the movie came out, i've been proverbially swamped with people who want to watch the series :)... though swamped means about... 5, but still nice to have them ask of their own accord.
I survived a day in Whitefall and all I got was this lousy signature!

On Monday night I went to try and buy a copy of Serenity using a BlockBuster gift certificate I got for xmas, and every BlockBuster in my area was sold out. Also, at the store I visited all but 3 copies out of say, 75 were rented.
I was pretty amazed.
So in Halifax, Nova Scotia, anyway, sales are looking pretty good.
(6 BB locations sold out, I'll take it)
