I thought the network declined the pilot and Joss and Tim had to create the entirety of Train Job over a weekend.
Watch the special features on the Firefly First(and only
) Season. he said that he wanted the train job to be the piolot but the producers wouldn't let him.I would totaly F*** River

I read this thread hoping to get ideas on how to convert our 19 year-old housemate, A.
He caught the tail end of me watching an episode (It was my birthday and I was treating myself to a dose of Mal :)). He asked what it was and my stepson, M., (same age as the housemate) rolls his eyes and says "You haven't seen her watching this show, she only watches it ALL the time!" :P
A has never seen Firefly (the series) but he is familiar with Serenity. The movie was not enough to hook him, so which episode should I show?
I was debating between the pilot and Out of Gas and came here for an opinion. Still seems to be split between the two...
To be Honest i saw the last episode first(a beautiful heart) and i fell in love with the whole series. but i think any episode would be good. their all funny and they are all amazing!
I would Totaly F*** River

For some reason, no one ever believes me when I say something is good. Particularly my family members. Not really sure why.
So my way of hooking people into stuff is to just start watching in a public place when they're around. They'll catch bits and pieces as I go along and then get curious and want to start from the beginning. So I get to watch the entire thing again. :D

ah, very tricksy there. i do the same thing. i shared a house with 3 others, and i'd always stick firefly or the newer doctor who on when everyone came home from work. they at least stayed to watch the episode. exposure is key. :)

My episodes would be serenity as this sets everything up really the characters the backgrounds to the story etc and i like Heart of gold just for some of the lines in it they make me laugh. such as
Jayne "i dont know these folk dont care much to"
mal "they're whores"
jayne"im in"
That makes me laugh everytime. Also the bit were kaylee asks wash to tell her shes pretty and gets the reply "if i were unwed i would take you in a manly fashion". Despite seeing these episodes again and again these things still make me laugh.

Hello hello hello.
Havnt been here for a while due to lack of a computer.
anyway, i know a guy who is a massive sci fi fan, in his collection he has serenity...
But NO Firefly.
*Ducks*
Yeah, he has the gaul to own the movie but not to fall in love with the show before hand. He didnt even watch it in '02/3 when sci-fi uk premiered it.
so, the other night i made a pact...
were gonna sit and watch a couple of episodes soon, so i picked 5 out all 13.
Serenity
Ariel
Our Mrs. Reynolds
Trash
The Message
We shoul really watch them in order, but hes a 'Verse Virgin so ill let it go for a while.
Those are what i would choose.

"Out of Gas", of course. Although the original pilot "Serenity" would be a close second.
"You wanna meet the real me now...?"

the right amount of humor, the right amount of big damn hero.

I would start them with "Serenity". You need to know who these people are and how they get together. It is an excellent episode anyway.
Love the end with Mal all pissed off about Whitefall and walking into his spacecraft with some foolish agent who has a gun to River's head.
Gotta love Mal's quick reaction to this situation.
It is like he does it everyday. Even Jayne takes it in stride as he helps Mal throw the trash out the hatch.
Gotta see them in order.
When I saw Farscape out of oder I had no idea what was going on. Now I have the ability to see this show in order and it is so much better.
