Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

lol, ok. That's funny. Actors ALWAYS bitch about late seaters.

In a similar note, we've had a few plays that were a bit "presentational" (acknowledging the audience) where a character says something to the effect of :

if we hear a phone, we will stop the show and humiliate the person
or
if one of those abominations that make noise in your pocket is heard, we have experts waiting in the wings, trained to destroy it with a mallet!

Funny enough, those shows had *no* cell phone rings for the entire runs!

OK, we digress again. So yes! WnP starts Wednesday. I'll do my best to post some. (silly family trips, happening during Firefly. Pfft!)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I was in a Borders recently and one of the staff was leading a customer somewhere. I overheard one of them say something about "Firefly" and my ears perked up. The customer said something about having read or heard that there were three episodes that never aired and the clerk said "really?". I restrained myself from jumping in and saying "yes, there were!" but wandered off thinking "one of us!"

Occasionally Iā€™m callous and strange

Funny enough, those shows had *no* cell phone rings for the entire runs!

Actually, during Shipwrecked there were several, all acknowledged. The first was on opening night, a friend of Melody's who worked for the NY Phil. Seriously, his phone rang during the second scene. It was horrible, all bleepy.

Should we make an annoucement about the watch n post in Sunnydale Press or does everyone who would care about it already read this thread?

Press announcement is totally appropriate and will allow folks who haven't kept up a chance to participate.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.ā€ ā€“ The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

I was watching the 5th season Buffy episode "Out of My Mind" tonight (the ep where Joyce collapses for the first time, Riley's heart goes beserk, the Initiative doctor returns to fix it, and Spike and Harmony kidnap the doctor to remove the chip in Spike's head), and noticed that the dialog seemed to echo Firefly in spots. Towards the beginning Spike offers Riley the use of his "cunning" knitting needles, and later Riley doesn't want to let the government doctors "get all whimsical with his insides."

I'm not remembering the timelines precisely -- when was Firefly in production at the same time as Buffy?

eta: "cunning" forever and always will make me think of Jayne and the hat his mom made for him. And the little piece of straw hanging out of it.
