You peeps that write Buffy off as high school mentality, vampire-bitey, Charmed-like nonsense are missing one of the best written works of art to ever exist, and what made Firefly POSSIBLE, I may add.
Give it chance; if ya aren't hooked by the end of season two, I'll eat my hat!
If I wore a hat...Chrisisall

I know for a fact that's true Chris. When Firefly was still very new, there were some people who were on one of the old Buffy boards that no longer exist that weren't even interested in trying it out.
Me? I didn't even like westerns and wasn't real crazy about sci-fi either (and Nathan was still Joey Buchanan from One Life to Live for me!) but I already adored and respected Joss so of course I was gonna at least give it a shot.
The fact that I'm here should tell you how THAT turned out!

(SPOILER) Herc talks up Firefly 1.1 some more. Gives it four stars. "Better than most motion pictures."
Any readers here who will actually be seeing the show tonight?

I'll be Tivoing it tonight. I probably won't get around to watching it before Saturday night.

After 5 minutes I got bored. I guess I am not into the whole cowboys in space thing. Star Trek is one thing...they weren't actually dressing like cowboys.

But I was sort of feeling the same thing in the beginning, guys! For one, they started with the Train Job (and Joey Buchanan--
!!)!!! Not being into westerns or sci-fi, I was more or less looking for the "Jossness" of it. It took me awhile to get there, but I got there.***********************************************

Yes, it was. Still a good ep. IMO, but just not the best introduction.

My thoughts about it in a nutshell, Chris!
Then again, Joss always said that if you couldn't handle a show with that title, you're not invited to the party!!!
