I was lucky enough to see it from the git-go. I didn't realize how hooked I was until my VCR didn't tape "Ariel". I almost cried, and watched every episode after. I almost wore out my tapes waiting for the DVDs to come out!

Last Christmas my brother initiated me. He tried to get me to watch the pilot, and I didn't get into it very much. Then he switched his attack and got me to watch Serenity. Then, I was hooked. For my birthday in July he gave me the boxed set and I have been hooked ever since. I just can't stop watching and hoping there will be more.

i've always been such a HUGE sci-fi fan.. and my girls and i loved watching buffy and angel. i remember surfing thru the channels when train job came on. i was so upset.. i thought i had missed the first episode!!! later.. i found out that it was actually the second episode.. but they played that one first. we now watch a few episodes every weekend.. then end it off with serenity.

when i started seeing trailers for serenity, i mentioned it to a friend who couldn't believe that i'd never heard of firefly. four days after he loaned me the discs, i was starting over at with the pilot to watch them for the second time.

Well I saw the reruns on SciFi, liked it. Thought this is ok, good, Gorram good, and Bam I was hooked. The A team caper with Big Jayne trapped in the airlock at the end of the Ariel ep. I said wow shiny. I think its the best of all time. Alias Smith and Jones when I was little reminds of this show. Another short lived due to the death of Pete Duel but the cult following was big at the time brought hippies back to westerns. Stargate got better and better. Rockford Files, Magnum, WKRP, and of course Barney Miller I figure for me are the best tv ever. But FF resonates on every core with me just luv everything about it. It would have to come back now as a complete new series because the BDM change the seasons of what would have been. How did I live before it.
You wanna leave this room.

Only one way to get hooked, watch an epsiode, I watched Buffy on and off but was not impressed by the trailers for Firefly and so never watched it, then my mate dragged me to see Serenity and I thought it was great but still was not inclined to pick up the series, but I set it in my mind to try and pick it up at some point. I finally saw am episode on Sci Fi (Bushwacked) and in less than two hours I had the box set, with in a week I had two, one to watch and one to lend! I just wished they had played the trailer to the shows strength, I would have been hooked from the word go!!

My daughter brought the DVDs home the Spring before the BDM. Her boyfriend had loaned them to her. I think the 1st ep I saw was the opening of OMR & I said," What the Hell is that?" Pretty quick we bought our own set of DVDs, just about wore the spot off 'em.

I was hooked way before I even saw it, before I even knew it existed. I am a massive fan of Film and TV, a big fan of Joss Whendon and an even bigger fan of Sci Fi and I love Westerns… What really hooked me though was the first five minutes of Serenity
