I saw the movie before I saw the show. The entry sequence was something else. I was rolling. BUT what really made me go THAT WAS AWESOME, was when Jayne clotheslined that guy in the trading post and planeted on his head.

Then I had to get the DVDs and watch them.

"Didn't she shoot you once?"

Nothin silly about it.

Might be insane, but I hardly think that matters. If it is insane than I am too, but such is life.

The thing is that you can't explain it to someone unless they already know (that's my Captian Jack Sparrow moment, "An island you can't find unless you know where it is.") I mean you just can't describe love to someone who has never felt it, love for a TV show even less so because people just look at you with one of those, "You can't love a TV show," looks and assume your screwed up.

Insane... yes you're more than likely right but I hear that's what happens when you get out to the edge of space, (or the end of the series).
And you're right, you just can't explain it or describe it to someone unless they've been there themselves.

For me, it was the end of Train Job (TV airing) where Mal kicks the thug into the ship's engine w/o any warning.

"Nice shot."
"I was aiming for his head."
The abundance of against the grain moments like this made it clear that this show was something special.

Gather 'round, children, an' I'll tell the tale of how Firefly roped me around the neck and dragged me from my "normal" life. (What? Again? Is this guy ever gonna shut up about how he found Firefly?)

'Round 'bout two weeks before The Train Job aired, you know F*x showed that one instead of the Pilot episode (Yeah, we know that already!), I was flippin' the channels and I see a strange lookin' spaceship spookin' a heard of horses. I said to my self "What in the sam hill was that?". I wanted to see the what ever it was again, so I sat through the most horrid, disgusting, mentally insulting show ever created by Mankind: Malcolm in the Middle in order to see it again. When the ad for a show called Firefly came on I was awestruck by the style of the camera work, a beauty with long, dark, curly hair and and rather intreaged by "A Girl In A Box".

Two weeks go by and I'm looking through the TV guide for somethin' interestin' to see, as Friday did'nt have the greatest programmin', and there I see Firefly on F*x, 8:00pm, I said to myself "Why not, there's nothing better on."

Come 9:00pm, "There's NOTHING better on!" After that I was hooked harder than a smoker, crack whore, and a heroin addict rolled into one. After the series was cancled, I was arrested for chuckin' rocks at the local F*x station (No you weren't!) you're right, it was ball bearings (You were'nt arrested!) well I had to pay for the windows.

How many Jaynes does it take to change a light bulb?

Two. One to try to put it in and another to find a bigger hammer.

Ranting here is the only way I can feel powerful.

My first experience was of 'THe Train Job'. I was in work in my dinner break and the TV was on with a sci-fi show on it. I was confused coz I thought I knew all Sci-FI shows (even Lexx. LOL). I asked my friend 'WHat is this?' he answered 'Firefly' and then explained how it was axed. From then I was sold. I get called Serenity in work and I love when people ask me, coz I'm wearing a T Shirt, what is firefly? I love explaining to them :)
