Well, welcome! I'm pretty new to the forums, but not so new to Firefly I'm glad you found it, as I'm sure everyone else here is, as well!

I recommend the Signal (podcast) http://signal.serenityfirefly.com/mmx/season/view.php/1
this is season 1 (they've just finished season 6), and there's lots of other cool audio stuff (incl original audio plays set in the 'verse) available from their website
Let us know if you are unfamiliar with podcasts; we'll be glad to he'p.
Easy quoted it best, "no need to dress"
Keep the Shiny Side Up . . .
Well I wasn't going to say anything, but....
(lying :-)
One of the (many) reasons we keep going with The Signal is that new folk keep coming along and finding the 'Verse. Sometimes they find us as well and it's all shiny. There are some great recommendations in this thread and this forum is particularly strong in good qualty fanfic if that's up your street.
On the audio side of things, we will be continuing with season 7 of The Signal next year (probably from around the end of January). We'll have some new crew and we've already started 2 brand new audio drama segments in this year's Holiday Special - Earthburn (serious pre- 'Verse exodus drama) and Shipworks (not so serious post Serenity sitcom :-). In fact we had 5 different audio drama segments in the Holiday Special (should have been 6 but one didn't come together in time) including (ahem) a new Badger's World episode.
All the Firefly audio drama that we know about is linked from or stored on our site as YT said and of course in 2011, Firefly Between The Lines will be starting (from the same folk that did the wonderful Buffy Between The Lines 1 and 2 and the current Angel Between The Lines.) FFBtL will be a pre-Firefly drama (so no Book, but set after Inara came aboard) and that's about all I know at the moment (auditions are over and I'm waiting to hear, with my fingers crossed, like everyone else)
So, welcome aboard!

Welcome to the site and to the ranks of the browncoats! 
No such thing as "too late" around here. We're glad to have you and hope you'll spread the word.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the *Music*!
We've just published our *3rd* complilation album of Firefly Filk and related fan produced music that we've played on The Signal:
http://signal.serenityfirefly.com/mmx/series/view.php/162
also just released as Season 6 Episode 21 on the front page of the main site signal.serenityfirefly.com
Check out Songs From The Black (the original complilation) and Songs From The Black II: The First Rule of Flying. Here:
http://signal.serenityfirefly.com/mmx/series/view.php/158
and here respectively:
http://signal.serenityfirefly.com/mmx/series/view.php/159
Many of these tracks come from pro and semi-pro artists who have whole *albums* of shiny music available to buy (folk like The Bedlam Bards, Marian Call, The Persephone Pickers, The Browncoats, Star One and others) All music, including the hi res individual downloads are used with permission, 'cos Browncoat musicians are just as shiny as any other Browncoat :-)
All 3 Songs From The Black albums are absolutely free to download, includig the hi-res versions and accompanying artwork to allow you to burn your own CD albums of Firefilk goodness. (The majority of these are completely original compositions by the way. Any straight covers are simply the best you are *ever* likely to hear.
Enjoy.

Been hangin around for some time and I am willing to put up $500 for a another Firefly TV series. How about it fans? Let's see what we can commit to. I don't care about cornflakes or feminine hygiene products. Just want to employ the cast and enjoy the program. New Thread with real money? Don't care about non profits or donating. I already donate $2,000+ a year with my wife and I am on SS and she has a shitty job. It's all about the money.

And well you should! It's excellent! I found it soon after I discovered the series and the BDM. I like the two new series thus far and am still trying to catch up on the older broadcasts! So, don't you dare stop The Signal! ;) ...or I'll find where you live and steal all your nifty Firefly collectibles!
j/k ;)

To the original poster, I had a similar introduction as well. One of my friends bugged me about some "space western" several years ago. I didn't think much of it.
Ended up seeing Serenity, loved it, and friend suggested I check out the show again. Didn't follow up.
Some years pass, and I'm embracing my inner geek more and more. I buy the Firefly DVD and watch it pretty much straight in one day. Been a crazed fan since, and have made many happy moments and memories because of it.
