Well, they did it. They actually broadcast "Serenity Pt 1" and it abruptly ended right after Mal opened the box and said "huh".
That's what they did in the UK on first broadcast, too. It worked for me at the time.

It worked for me at the time.
I fell in love once Wash and his dinosaurs were on screen, but the people I watched the pilot with needed some more time to really truly be hooked. By the end of the second hour, they ignored their cell-phones (which is a thing that Israelies never do), but not at the end of the first.
Oh, and the reason I posted here is to send early wishes to moonlit, whose birthday, according to the Buffista Calendar, will be on Saturday, the 20th (I just won't be in front of a computer until Sunday).

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
I sent some emails on the 20th but I'll add a birthday post for moonlit anyway.
Happy Birthday moonlit!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Happy Belated Birthday, Moonlit!!!

A little late, but
Happy Birthday, Moonlit!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Um. ::cough:: Sorry I disappeared for two months. I got busy. Jars, I would have loved to meet up with you while I was in Dublin. Sorry about about that.
Jim, where are you in the UK? I'm in Southwest Wales.

Don't worry about it SA. How did you like Dublin?
Speaking of London, I'm going to have an aimless day to myself on the 8th December (I think), if any UK-istas might be about?

I loved it. I found a Lush, and that made my day.
I may or may not be in London on the 8th. I was going to fly out to Berlin that morning, but I haven't made any plans. How long are you going to be there?
Jars - Nov 22, 2004 11:06:03 am PST #7292 of 9843
Lush makes me sneeze, I'm afraid.
I'm there for three days, but my plans for the eighth fell through. I figured I'd do some shopping and wander around the British Museum for an hour or five. I leave that evening. I wanted to stay for longer, but i'm graduating the next day, so I kind of have to come home for that.

Heh. I can understand why.
Okay, let me see how things work out on my end, okay?
