I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but if anyone has a High Def tv, Firefly is going to be on Universal HD, starting with the pilot. They'll be showing the entire series (from what I can tell).

They were playing that when I was home over Christmas, where my parents have all the necessary satellite/HDTV hardware (grad-student-me has bunny ears), and dayum I didn't think our crew could get any prettier, but they can!!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
My local cable co. declines to carry UHD. I think I'll go whomp on them some more.

We had Universal HD for about a week, and then kerblooey. I've called them a couple of times to request it, but they seem less than eager to acquiesce to my request.

I have to say that as pretty as it is in High Def, they aren't showing it widescreen. What's the point in showing something in High Def if they are going to butcher it?

Yes, they are. It's widescreen, just like the DVDs. It sounds like a configuration problem on your end.

Well that's good to hear. If I could find my tv remote I could maybe solve the problem.

I know that Kaylee is okay but every time I watch her get shot I get all tense,and right before she walks in I want to yell at her or Mal or someone. It's like watching Bayliss pick up the phone.
