I can't find this; where is it?

It's when she is lying in her hammock re-listening to Tracey's message, and before Simon walks up to the door of the engine room. But you have to look real fast, it is at the far right of the screen for just a second or two.

I just noticed that in "Heart of Gold" when Inara is first talking to Nandi that she starts to make an excuse for not waving Nandi sooner. At first I thought it was because Nandi was shunned or they just lost touch. Now I think it's because Inara is sick or dying and is avoiding her old friends.

Hi. Fisrt time poster, long time lurker.

I've been watching the episodes while I treadmill lately.

I noticed recently in "Jaynestown" that both Jayne and Simon leave their coats in the tavern, and don't have them when they board Serenity.

I'm not sure about Simon, but Jayne wears the same jacket in "The Message". I guess he could be one of those guys who acquires multiples of what works for him.

I also wondered about the pictures on Jayne's wall above his weapon alcove. Girlie pix? Family? Both?(eeww)

Also loved Kaylee leaving the bow in her hair after she's changed out of her ball gown. That's something I'd have done.

I think they do resemble each other, but not the same actor. Skunk was played by Craig Vincent, and the guy in TTJ was David Reynolds.

Sometimes I "watch" Firefly while working on a website or doing some other craft.
I find myself listening to the dialogue (and the music) very intently, and I really hone in on what's being said...or not said.
I noticed that the theme of "Jaynestown" is Symbols.
Book speaks of the Bible, and later his hair, as a symbol.
Doesn't Inara equate virginity as a state of being, which is sort of a way of saying it's a symbol?
The statue of Jayne is also a symbol to the Mudders.
I really like this episode. It's very funny and quite touching at the end.

Funny the things you notice while you're listening to the show rather than watching.

I love this line; what's it from?

Book: I'd forgotten - you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now.
Simon: No, but I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

I belive it's in the first scene (after the teaser) of War Stories. Book and Simon are talking about Shan Yu. Book wonders if they people that experimented on River were into his writings, etc.

In the train job at the very begening in the "Aliance freindly bar come uni day" the belly dancer gives Mal a slip of paper. Aparently his contact to Nishka.

I never caught that they were saying gorram or rudden or shiny untill i saw them show up in fanfiction. I saw it and was all like, WTF? The next time I watched an episode they showed up and it was like, ohhhhhhhhh.

Never caught onto the cool cameral work untill i saw the special features thing and Joss or somebody was like, "Yeah, nobody does zooms or focuses anymore, and especialy not when doing the Computer Animated stuff of the ships flying around and stuff."

Blue sun crap just went whoosh right over my head.

Mal: Hell, I'd do this job for free!
Zoe: Can I have your share?
Mal: No.
Zoe: If you die can I have your share?

CGI Zooms and pans and focuses and vibrating 'cameras' and whatever the hell 'rack mounts' means -- that CGI stuff is so awesome and amazing when you think about it, but it's so seamlessly integrated into the scenes that you don't really notice it (which is the goal, I guess)

RIVER
Purple elephants are flying.
MAL
Good. Thanks for the update.

OK, call me dense, but I didn't notice until the third viewing of "Shindig" that Jayne, the stinker, stole back the chore chits from Book while he and Simon were helping River.

Never let an upside-down corset stop you from having a good time.
