I was in with the first ad I saw on Fox. Never have I seen an ad that caught my attention the way that one did. I think it was the combination of a Western-Sci Fi that included a whore and a girl-in-a-box.

Of course, it just got better from there. ;)

Shindig. A man fighting for the honor of a woman. That's a good thing. When Inara ties to teach Mal how to fence...classic. The end when the two of them are talking...and the pan to the cows.

I said, 'Ahh, these two are adults'.

And that's when I knew I was hooked.

That is exactly what I thought.... and exactly when I knew. Gorramit, I love this show so much. I want it back so much. Please let it come back. Please. Isn't there anything I can do? Isn't there any for sure positive solution?

My sister's favorite line from that one. "Yes, but she's our witch and we want her back." I love when River dances.

"Aint we just."

I have to say that my favorite dialogue from safe was:
Mal: Looks like we showed up just in the nick of time. Whats that make us?
Zoe: Big damn heroes sir.
Mal: Aint we just.

I started watching the show from the beginning, but I wasn't hooked on it. I actually missed one of the episodes, and it didn't bother me that much. It was one of those shows that I watched, but didn't really pay much attention to. I would be doing other things while it was on, only half-way paying attention.

But then I saw "Safe", and I was obsessed ever after. It was the part where River is dancing. She was just so graceful and happy and free. It was a beautiful scene, and River became my favorite character. I wanted to find out what the alliance had done to her, I wanted to know what she was capable of, and I wanted to see her get better.

Then I really started to pay attention to the rest of the show, and I realized how friggin' great it was. Far better than anything else on tv. So, of course, Fox goes and cancels it. They really can't seem to deal with quality programming on that network. But it will return, I know it. The movie will be an amazing success, and then they'll bring back the show. Oh yes, it will happen. Just think happy thoughts.

i loved the show from the start, but i guess i knew i was hooked when i jumped off my chair shouting "LOOK! LOOK! theres serenity!"when she flys overhead in battlestar galactica. which i then proceeded to rewind and watch several times, much to the disgust of my other half
