Probably never. Too many problems with rights to the music played on the show.

Crappy internet vid.

(Chrisisall; I always kinda saw "Eyes Only" on DA as an homage to Max Headroom/Eddison Carter. The whole "crusading video-journalist in a fascist media-controlled state" thing. Pity DA never really spotlighted that angle.)

Sorry for that, Chris, but I just wanted to give the people who had only barely just heard about the show to get a taste for what they'd been missing.
Hey, my first exposure to Firefly was through that Hello, Cowgirl! site, with the episodes in RealPlayer format!
Sure, it was "crappy internet vid", but it made me run out and buy the DVDs!
Still, even with the crappy video quality, that first five minutes really gets me excited. Remember, I'm a rotorhead, so I love anything with helicopters! (Airwolf! Blue Thunder! Deadly Encounter!)
I especially love that one shot looking straight up the side of the apartment building, with the orange sky, and the Network 23 chopper maneuvering into a hover precisely parallel with the building's edge. That's just beautiful!

Y'know, I never saw that, but I know that Ron Cobb designed the Whisper Craft, so I should probably pick it up at some point.
