I'm thinking on a way we can work out a convenient synchronization. Such as...start and then pause at a recognizable moment and hit play again.

Any other ideas?

And yes, FUN. Thanks for organizing, Andi.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Wow, this show was good.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

They all play off each other so well.

Serenity-the-pilot doesn't seem rushed to me. Serenity-the-movie always seems rushed.

Yes, thank you Andi.

Maybe we should sync our "watches" a few minutes before? I was 2 minutes behind, but I got that way trying to catch up from being about 30 second behind, and Netflix taking a long time to load when I tried to FF..

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Any other ideas?

Not sure, I just started mine at the top of the hour, using my computer's clock. It's hard for me to tell how close to synchronized we were because it always takes a few moments for me to type responses. And then read where other people are.

And yes, FUN. Thanks for organizing, Andi.

I was just carrying the ball that omnis handed off. If he hadn't gotten things going with the Movie W&P, we wouldn't have tonight. Thanks again, omnis!

Yeah. I think 'starting' by getting on a particular point and pausing again would be helpful.

That sounds good. I usually have to spend a few minutes tinkering with our house network, to get the wireless stuff going, and then try to make sure the dvd player is set up. So I'll try to give a thought to synchronizing times in that time frame, as well.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

a couple hours late to the game but what a lovely excuse to rewatch :) i've seen this show so many times...yet never before noticed the teddy bear applique on Kaylee's overalls. And didn't really register Inara blessing Book.

It's enough. bless.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

That's such a good episode. They establish character so perfectly for all them. I, too, love the scene where Kaylee tells Book he's going with Serenity. Wash and the dinosaurs is fab.

Am I right in thinking that this wasn't shown on US TV, but The Train Job was shown first? I think someone told me that. Seems really weird. Especially given how perfect an opener this episode is.

Train Job was shown first, because Fox, in their infinite wisdom, decided that Jayne was right about Mal being a pussy to back down from Badger and was too dour into the bargain. So one bright, shiny Friday afternoon, they told Whedon that if he didn't come up with a new script for a pilot by Monday morning, they'd scrap the whole project. And so, Train Job was born, the brain child of the frantic writing coupling of Whedon and Minear.
