Which episode of Firefly would you use to hook someone? Nebhead Send a noteboard - 10/03/2010 10:30:51 AM
The pilot isn't really the best example of the show, but I also don't really want to show them the series completely out of order.

What's the best episode to get someone into the series without spoiling too much?
It's all my fault...

I think the pilot works just fine ironclad - 10/03/2010 11:53:02 AM 929 Views
See, I think "Out of Gas" works much better as an introduction to the characters. Nebhead - 10/03/2010 01:03:27 PM 1105 Views

Train Job. The pilot is longer and slower to develop, from what I recall. Zalis - 10/03/2010 02:39:08 PM 790 Views
Train Job, for sure. TaskmasterJack - 10/03/2010 04:58:41 PM 739 Views
I think you need to start with the pilot and skip the Train Job Mark - 10/03/2010 04:59:50 PM 862 Views
The pilot works for most people. Beqi - 10/03/2010 05:37:00 PM 720 Views
