Hi and welcome, Skeadugenga! Er,... may I call you Skee?
We're glad you found this shiny but somewhat wacky boat. You'll find a whole lot of folk around these parts who feel just like you do.
There's a good chance that some of those folk will be around to invite you to question the buffet or try your hand at solving the problem of an ice planet. Be sure to keep an eye out for FollowMal, as she has the keys to the storage locker where the official browncoats are kept. If she doesn't find you, I can usually find a used one to patch up and brush off.
Feel free to wander around, and post lots. We love stories. Like, how did you come across the Big Damn Movie?

That beautiful moment I first looked into Saffron's bottomless eyes.
Second would probably be when Book said the quote I have in my sig.

The first time Wash spoke....I couldn't stop watching after that. In fact, I watched the first three DVDs back-to-back and watched the fourth the next day. I think I watched the movie that week and I've been in love ever since.

This is a bit off but hey, i missed the series all the way up to when the ads for serenity were shown on the tv, anyway i watch a movie review of serenity and i was pretty much hooked from the clips of the movie they showed. I needed to see this movie and the show that goes with it, which i can't believe i could of missed being a Joss Whedon fan.
So when i watched the series at the moment Mal looks over serenity valley and is so crushed by what he sees that he doesn't notice that Bendez dies, i was completely taken in. I thought, this guys is so overwhelmed. How will he go on? So i tuned in every week and saw the movie to see how his man carries on.

The year is 2006, never heard of Firefly or Serenity, but Buffy and Angel fan. Goes to the lokal videorent place. Browses. Peter Jackson's King Kong no decision really, Lotr fan long time. Then I see a cover, hmm, young girl herostance, written by the buffydude, well no decision either really. I go home and watch King Kong, god I was bored, 3 hours bored.
Serenity goes into the dvdplayer, opening sekvens ,I like, title screen, zoom out to Serenity, I go oh it is a spaceship, because I didnt know. 7 min and I loved the movie already. The defineing moment was when River steps down from the boxes, Mal says "You know your role in this, little one?" , River retorts "Do you?" fell in love especially in River and the 'verse.
Then in dvd-extras I learned about Firefly. Bought it, love it.
And hope so much, that Serenity will break atmo again soon, keep fighting everyone.

For me I can't say a specific moment. All I need to know is that I am in love and will be for the rest of my life.
Hey! The Ballad of Serenity as funeral music...thats an interesting idea...

I was introduced when I visited my best friend over Christmas and her family was in the middle of the series. I was intrigued with "Ariel" but what got me was "Jaynestown"- I giggled when Kaylee said "everywhere I go, his eyes keep following me"; literally rolled on the floor when the Hero of Canton was sung; but the line that sealed it was "We gotta go the crappy town where I'm a hero!" I LOVE/LOVED WASH from the get-go.
What made me obsessed is the cinematography of the "Kaylee's dead" sequence- slowmotion Simon running down the stairs and the music, then Simon realizing how "psychotic" Mal is.

Hey Doncoat, thanks for the welcome and the pointers. Don't worry about the Skeadugenga thing (long story), I'm Kate, will look out for FollowMal and already loving the fiction.
How did I come across the Big Damn Movie? Advance publicity, the story about the fans who wouldn't let the show die, and I saw the trailers and thought "that looks like my kind of story.." And I've been a fan of another show called "Green Wing" for a long time and all my fellow fans there know Joss Whedon is god - so when I found it was one of his, the omens were good that I'd like it:-)
So glad to see that there are more new fans joining, maybe if there are enough of us and we keep it going then one day we might get more...we can dream...
Kate
