When we were watching it on tv, my mom called after the first episode and said "I don't think I'm gonna watch this, because obviously I missed the first episode. I had no clue who these people were."
I wasn't too thrilled by the "The Train Job," but I found the characters intriguing enough, and Mal kicking a guy into a turbine always wins you points. So I stuck with it, and I eventually began to love the show. And then it was cancelled.
Steph, the most most most important thing for you to do, after you've gotten through all the episodes (and not before) is to watch the commentaries. You will never keep up in good, true browncoat conversations if you don't know some of the tidbits that you learn on those.
I almost died laughing listening to the "War Stories" commentary.
And oh my... hmm. I had no idea that Steph wasn't ALREADY watching Veronica Mars. This won't do.
It really won't. I'm sure she'd love to be able to comment on more than ten percent of my posts.
