Hello everyone,

I don't know really where to start. All I know is that Firefly puts a smile on my face

I remember seeing the commercials for Serenity and thought it looked interesting.... Was I in for a suprise!

My brother in law went and bought the dvd shortly after it came out. I have to say, I'm not big on sci-fi movies but this movie is top shelf (the bloopers were even great... TRAP!!!!)

After doing a little research on my new favorite movie I soon realized that this was based off a t.v. show... and to my suprise it had the same cast.

I ordered the complete series DVD and recieved it yesterday. I've fallen in love with it all over again.

I just got finished with the 5th episode. It's 6:30 am here and I have to go to work in 4 1/2 hours! I've spent all night watching firefly and I'm forcing myself to go to sleep!

I'm glad I found a place to share my new found passion. I hope to one day be considered a part of the crew.

Thanks for reading my long ass post... I just felt I had so much to get off my chest.

Time to sleep now....

Welcome to the site & to the family Consequence. We're glad to have you here w/ us and thanks for sharing your story w/ us.

There sure seems to be an acre of new browncoats popping up here lately & that puts a big smile on my face.

Now of course you know you have to get out there and share the joy you have found in Firefly/Serenity with everyone that you can. Friends, family, co-workers, whoever, we need to make people aware of the series DVD & get them to watch & pick up the movie DVD. The more DVDs that sell, the better our odds of getting a sequel.

Welcome indeed.

Don't worry about watching the episodes "too fast". If you're like most of us, you'll be watching them over and over again anyway. With or without the commentary. With or without the subtitles.

Hope you don't have too tough a day at work, what with the not sleeping and all.

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

Not a new Firefly fan, but a new fan to this site, and I'm very glad to be here.

After watching the Serentiy DVD last week, I really wanted to buy some Serentiy t-shirts, and after doig a quick online search, stumbled across FireflyFans.net. Didn't find the shirts that I was looking for, but found what appears to be a great place to hang out and talk about one of the greatest shows ever, and one of the most creative people in Hollywood, Joss Whedon.

Check out Hot Topic stores near you. They are carrying three different shirts that are Serenity inspired.

Also check out this site:

Alex who runs the site is a fellow fan & a great guy.

There is also a ton of fan run sites offering up all sorts of Firefly & Serenity merchandise. Others are sure to post links in this thread.

Welcome, welcome, welcome, Consequence and Alterego!

I've said it before and I'll say it again - these new fan threads are my favorite. Nothing better than a new recruit (or an old recruit who just discovered our little home here )

This is a great site, with great, enthusiastic people (who keep up my spirits on a daily basis with hopes for a sequel). Hope to see you both around here quite a bit.

My oh my!!! I know exactly how you feel or what you're going through. The first time I got my hands on my sister's copy of Firefly... I couldn't stop watching it or get myself to sleep until about 4 hours before I had to go to work. Hahaha!!! Don't get me wrong.. I'm not complaining here. It was worth it. Of course I had to consume more caffeine than usual at work but like I said... I wouldn't have it any other way. Besides... Sleepiness is a sign of weak character hehehe!!! I hope I have the right quote... smile.
Hope you have a smooth day at work though. I already know that you will tell your buddies and coworkers about the best kept secret in TV/Widescreen and soon... they too will be one of us. As for me... I will do just that in about 12 hours or so. My weekend is over and I must say that it's a little strange but I'm looking forward to going to work ...just to be able to share this wonderful gift we have. The more the merrier!
I'm a fresh recruit myself and as you can see... this is a great place for people like us. A warm welcome you shall receive... At home you will feel. There's no other place like this. Again.... Welcome.
