Fox's Drive messageboard is now up and has way cooler colors than the OB.
ETA: Someone needs to go over there and say something intelligent. Someone not me.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
There is a cute little video of Tim introducing the series at the bottom of this page: [link]

Funny and charming.

I still hate that message format. I hated it for Firefly and Kitchen Confidential. Still not liking it for Drive.
But the video is making up for my board crabbiness. And hey -- it is better than Booster's site. It loads, after all.

It's not that I'm the only one, it's that I'm the honest one.
A victory for long term memory (and computing at 6am): I remembered my prospero login details from back when The Inside was on.
...Now I just have to remember how to navigate it.

What is even happening?

Oh, my word, yes. I can't navigate it to save my life. I tried posting at the Fox board for Firefly, when it was brand new, but I couldn't take to the format well enough to bother sticking around. I seem to remember a Bronzer concocted mandate about filling it with good conversation.
It seems to me we got the tip-off at the Beta, or in e-mail, to go try out the original Firefly board. Did that actually happen, Monique, or did we just find it early?
(I clearly remember finding UPN's thing they called The Bronze [despite my best efforts to the contrary], and I might be conflating memories.
Tim's video is adorkable. They even made the little "ting" sound-effect, after his smile in the final shot. Ben Queen looks to be approximately 7 years old, and much too young to be a co-creator of anything but an awesome backyard fort.

It really is. FAQWife didn't think she'd watch, but after seeing the video, I think she's sold.

I don't understand -- what's different about the format? It's still threaded with X posts per page. You mean because of the sidebar?
The colors are eye-twisting, but that's a different problem.
