Well, as long as other new folks are jumpin in I might as well too. Been lurking around these parts a fair while now. Y'all are a real shiny group of folk, happy to finally post here. I reckon I might stay a spell, if you don't mind?

By the way, my wife is to blame for me finding out about the 'verse. I remember vaguely hearing about Firefly when it was on television, thought "sci-fi western? Ahhh, I think I'll pass." We were shopping at Target in November last year and she saw the box set of Firefly and said maybe we should pick it up, it was by Joss and we liked Buffy and Angel enough to own all of those on DVD. Needless to say, after getting it home and watching the shows(again and again) I felt like a complete idiot for my earlier thinking. The show is amazing, totally floored me. I have NEVER been sucked into a show so quickly, become attached to characters so fast. I could not believe that I had gone that long without seeing this, then had that "Damn Fox!!!" line of thinking that so many here have already expressed.
I have tried to convert as many folks as I can since then. We can only hope that one day there will be more.

Sorry to ramble on. Stay Shiny!

Anybody's welcome! The procedure here seems to be:

start your own thread
OR
hop on someone else's.

That pretty much covers everybody. So y'all are just following procedure!

Anger on one side, sadness on the other. Nobody knows about the third side.

Hobbes: How come we play war and not peace?
Calvin: Too few role models.

If everyone is jumping in on this thread.

I have been hovering on the outskirts of this site for almost a month now, too afraid to jump in with both feet but, here we go.
Had Firefly for my birthday this year. 32yrs old
What have I been missing out on?
Firefly was never shown on TV in the UK.

By the way, is there anybody else here from the UK side of the pond.

Just a thought.

Is anybody else sad enough to recognise The Operative from Serenity is also a romantic lead character in "Love Actually"

You said feel free to speak my piece. Sorry!
