So what do you guys reckon... if we feel the need to talk about Firefly,
can we do so here? It's not exactly on topic but it is Joss and Tim and I
don't really fancy looking up a US alt.group... And besides, it's quiet
enough in here, even with Buffy and Angel.

We could add an [ot] tag, just in case the off topicness would annoy
people.

I just watched the first 10 minutes myself, unfortunately pressing matters
are urging me to wait until tonight for the rest of it, so I can't comment
yet.

I did notice one thing however.... Captain Mal is a *hottie*!!! (yay
shallowness)

:)

Yeah, 'xactly.

For safety's sake, maybe. Then again, I really don't know how many
people lurk and read her.

Gah....

Well, I just finished it. Thoughts shall follow, along with a comparison
to the 'other' pilot. Soon.

I think it's a given that we must. I will even join the group as a poster
not a lurker just to give you all incentive :-)

Maybe [ff] would be more appropriate for those wishing to engage in
pointless, OT conversations but not in Firefly ones? Ok so I can't think of
even one silly fool who would do such a thing, but the whole idea is more
uniformed anyway.

Haha! In that case I can safely comment on the prostitute woman (what's her
name?)...smokin' hot bitty! :-)

This even cause people delurking here.

Short introduction then?

Hi there,

I'm Mari, a regular from nksf and most definitely an Angel-fan. Became a
Buffy fan as well after a long lobby from Mattia and Jonathan. I saw the
light after seeing Passion and Becoming.

If been reading ABE for a while now, lets say more then a year.

Owww. Poor girl.

> shallowness)

Sigh. No he's not. ;o) I really like Jayne.

Greetz,
Mari
