I really don't think that is from 4400 in any way shape or form. It has to be a Universal marketing dealio. I'm not buying the denial, Kevin. That is definitely Summer and I think it is just a piece of viral marketing. Cool, though!
Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
Somebody on a board somewhere (I'm too lazy to go back and look it up) posited that they thought the psychologist was Nathan. Maybe I'm susceptible to suggestion, but on second and third viewings, it may well be. The physical build seems about right and some of the grunting is reminiscent of War Stories.
At what point did it get established the guy's a psychologist? From what I'm getting, he is a guy and that's about it. Same question as regards the psychicness. Blood seems to suggest his convulsing's the result of something sharp goin' in his torso.

Well, as far as the psychologist bit goes, for me it's 1) the "case study film" feel of the piece 2) white coat 3) pen and paper 4) two chairs at an interview-y table.
Same question as regards the psychicness.
Regarding the psychicness? I guess I may be reading a bit too much into it there, 'cause, you know, River. It does seem like he's struggling against an unseen force however.

It appears from the film that he pulls his pen out of his neck or torso.
Edit: Also note River's bloody hand.
It's not blood on Rivers hand, it is chocolate.
River had just killed an Oompa Loompa.
Light. Light is good. Light enables you to see things.
Without light, all is emptiness. Or Radio, which is like emptiness.
Hee hee hee. Ah, Joss. That looks like something I want to get, Kevin. Thanks.

It does sound like him. I heard a lot of people saying it looked like Joss, which seemed like wishful thinking to me - that guy wasn't shaped like Joss in any way, especially his head.
He does have a wedding ring on, though. I think, if it's anyone we've ever heard of, it might be Chris Buchanan.
I don't know if this has been answered, but does anyone know how Firefly is doing on the SciFi Channel?
Something they just changed on their website (or else I just noticed it) - on their front page (where they have links to the shows they produce) they've added the heading "More Hot Shows", where Firefly is listed (with a link to their Firefly page).
