And a big fat floral Welcome Home to you,
JOEY (#32467)
LACDESILES (#31478)
KELLEN (#32355)
It's just so gorram shiny to see y'all signing onto our shiny ship. Stash yer stuff and mosey on over to the Orientation table. Mudder's Milk, strawberries and cream for all.
And, since FollowMal has been so busy doing work for the Captain, I'll take over temporarily for her and ask: Please put on one of these virtual browncoats, each of you. They're guaranteed to fit perfectly, though they won't stop any bullets. Patch-kit in left-hand inside pocket in case of emergency...
Y'all join us in the Caption threads -- we need more input. In fact, go vote! Caption participation not necessary to vote.

Welcome Joey and all the newbies.

Come right in and sit a spell, no need to dress.

Welcome to the passion and pain known as Firefly fandom. Passion because we all love us some Firefly, and pain because, well, someone wasn't bright enough to see that this show was magical back in 2002.

Some 6 years later, our Big Damn Heroes are still winning over new folk by the muleload. What a shame!

Once again - Welcome. Don't forget to share the love with others. Whenever you can share the 'verse and show them FF/Serenity.

Shiny! Let's be bad guys!

REMEMBER the first rule of being a Browncoat, you must recruit and convert MORE Browncoats!

Welcome new Browncoats.

Joey, if your answer has not been answered adequately, regarding River's escape:
The opening of the BDM (Big Damn Movie) shows the security record of the escape, which occurred 8 months before the Operative is now reviewing the record. This playback is also where the Operative learns of Dr. Mathias exposing Key Members Of Parliament to a Psychic (River), so the Dr. is terminated.
This escape on Osiris precedes by a few days the opening day of the Pilot Serenity, where River-in-the-box is unveiled.
The series spans about 7 months, and in Serenity mentions the Tams have been on board over 8 months - so this is 8 months after the escape scene viewed on the security recording.

Serenity the movie - (know here as the Big Damn Movie or BDM) is set after the series of Firefly by a minimum period of 8 months.

BUT - the beginning of the movie is a flashback to before the show! confusing?? l'il bit:)

the gap between the series and the film is filled by the official comics ( www.darkhorse.com) and by the wonders of fan fiction (check out the Blue Sun Room here).

for speculation AFTER the BDM see also: http://www.stillflying.net

there are also some good threads here discussing the 'verse as a whole and the time-line in detail...

e.g. http://fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=4&t=31980
for time-line

wytchcroft has provided a link, but to a discussion of the timeline.
The resulting timeline is here:

I randomly picked up Serenity at the PX one evening and was blown away. Then, I find that there was a series. How did I miss this? I found a good torrent (piracy, yes, but its only fitting) and I'm about halfway through the season. I don't even have the words to describe... its absolutely amazing. I'm glad I found this site.

Ahoy, rider211 (#32601, yay!)
Dig in at the strawberries and dipping chocolate.
And the Mudder's, too.
I'll issue you a virtual browncoat pending FollowMal's return from KNTR missions.

Yes, where's your PX (inquiring B'coats want to know)?
And can't you find a box of Firefly discs to buy?
They're often on special here and there, and 'coats may post bulletins here when they spot
bargains.

Spread the Firefly love wherever, whenever.
So shiny to have another one aboard!

Horno, Camp Pendleton, CA. Not much of a selection, but I found one winner at least. I might actually have the entire weekend free, so you can bet I'll be looking for the discs. I paused "out of gas" to write this, so back to it!
