I maintain my belief that the order is what I said, but the ending of HoG does suggest that it might in fact end with HoG. Hard to tell till the DVD comes out.

From what I remember (all found on this site, but I don't remember where), HoG does come before OiS but OiS was changed in the version we all saw because it was aired without Trash, Message and HoG. My guess is that OiS does come last and when the changes are rolled back it will make sense. Incidentally, I think OiS makes a pretty good closing chapter to the series. Not that I want it to end, but it's got a certain sense that Firefly will "keep flying" even if we can't see her. From what I hear, this is not the case with Farscape. I'm on 4x07, so nobody ruin it for me.

Hi Guys,

Found this qoute from this site by Tim:

Tim Minear - Jun 14, 2003 9:16:41 am PDT #9264 of 9273
"So Tim, is "Heart of Gold" supposed to take place after "Trash" and "The Message" or before "Objects in Space"?"
Both. The order, and (to the best of my recollection) the way it'll shake out on the DVDs is:
Trash,
The Message,
Heart Of Gold,
Objects In Space
Joss made a minor adjustment in "Objects" when we aired it, and restored said change for the DVD order.

why can't y'all come to some sort of resolution on the episode order?
Do I need to wait for the dvd?

Because he says that in a way that is not certain (“to the best of my recollection”) and because there are things in Trash and The Message that come after events in OiS I still think that it is the order that I said, with the current form of the episodes at least. Obviously until we see what the changes were we can’t be sure, but it just seems to go against logic to have Jayne make reference to an event in OiS in The Message if The Message came first. There are other things like that.

Obviously if Tim says something more definite I am wrong, and it could be that there are changes that make it all make sense.

The order Tim put forward is the same as the order they were shown in over here, then. OiS definately made sense as a finale to the series. A very frustrating one,'cause I wanna see more, but I know there is no more. Arrgh! OiS did seem to conclude it all quite well, resolving the River being a threat to the crew thing, and it kinda brought them all together as a crew finally. Even if Mal and Inara were still being stupid. But then, Joss always did try to keep his characters apart as long as possible. It gets boring when they do get together. He's done it in Buffy and Angel before. I'm gonna have to buy the DVD in December. The show is genius, and there's still a few episodes I missed.
