Not to contradict you but I believe the intro scene between 'nara and Book was Morena's FIRST professional scene. The sponge bathing may have been her first professional semi-nude scene.

I dunno about you, dude, but I hit the pause button on that scene EVERY time, so I always thought it was me......

I'm a little ashamed. I assumed that someone had posted screen shots of the hot scene when I came into this thread.

Man... it takes me SO LONG to have a moment to notice the spinning of the rest of the world when I've got a work schedule on... 18/hr.days-7/days a week for freekin' MONTHS... anyway... sorry to take so long to notice you'd replied to me.

Anyway... you may, in fact, actually be 100% correct, however, where I took my information was Morena Baccarin herself: in the "Making of..." documentary for the "Firefly" series, during sections of it wherein she's interviewed about her experience shooting her episodes, she said it all happened so fast. They had a problem with ...some-inferior-actress-who-dve-BUTCHered-the-part-had-they-gone-with-her-desPITE-Esquire®-magazine-declaring-her-the-Finest-Female-on-the-planet-or-some-such

... and in that interview, Morena says her "Firefly" audition was the first thing she attempted immediately after her classes at Julliard. She says she auditioned on a Friday and they said, to-the-effect-of, "Well, that was just fine, by the way, you start on Monday." And it was either here or in a Joss commentary about her that it's stated that the first scene was the spongebath.

Not that any of these extremely fine points have much bearing on the quote-unquote Real World, however, those particular people said that this was the order of events.

Now... will somebody please tell me (remember: I said I'm buried in overwork 18-hours-a-day-7-days-a-week so, in Baldric's immortal words, "I don't know who I am or where I live...") if a BDSequel or a BDRenewed TV Series has occured during my inability-to-keep-up-on-events ...or not...

I know - I know... I "live in a pipe in the upstairs water-closet & my name is of no importance" and "my friends think I'm a useless stack of meat."

Well there have been rumors of late. Sadly they've been debunked here,

YOU may be right, I think what I heard on the commentary for Firefly for the Inara-Book intro scene was, the scene was her first DAY not her first scene.

sorry for the confusion,

Maybe so, but she did the movie 'Way Off Broadway (2001)' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250625/ before 'Firefly (2002)' http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0303461/

well...probably so... I'm just quoting whart she said on the doc footage... maybe that movie was one she prefered to forget or didn't want us to know about...
...and therefore, thanks for the research because, with the above thoughts in mind, this early movie ,ay need to be investigated...
...off to netflix we go

...if you can actually wait any longer for the next BDM or BDTVS, "you're friends will think you're a stupid, inbred stack of meat"...
