Apparently, there *are* other conventions than Comic-Con. There seems to be one in England.

There have been HUGE cons everywhere. These guys were 'big' with most of us before the did the Comic Con during the filming of Serenity.

My first was when the Firefly DVD was released and we went to LA. Met some of new family there! *snuffle*

First time I met Adam. He jumped down off the stage to give me and Jessi hugs when I told him who we were. I was so sad not to see him this time at SDCC. First time in years that I've not gotten a hug, or a smooch on the cheek, or even a wave/kiss blown to me from the stage. He's always acknowledged me and/or Jessi. Was hoping to say hi to him at the Nerd HQ signing, but he left before the line ended.  :(

I was sad they didn't interview Ron like they did with the gals. Also sad that they didn't even have Joss. I know he was busy at Comic Con, sleep deprived to the point of some very strange ramblings...but you'd think Science Channel could have tracked him down somewhere, later.

Jose tweeted that they could have made the special two hours long, since they had a lot more taped...hoping that they have that, maybe for sale later on. The only things I'd never heard were the confirmation of our guess about Inara, and the dark eps that were bandied about. Just having them all together was awesome. When they showed the still of Joss directing, I yelled out, "That's Rosie's scene!!!". Tom was like, 'yep'. Jessi didn't get to watch it, since the place she lives doesn't have cable. I dvr'd it.

I like that you can see a shot of Nathan really crying on stage during the SDCC panel...trust me, he started much earlier and they ALL got misty! The whole place was crying...I was bawling like a baby!! I'd actually started much earlier, when I was given passes to get into it. My benefactor always has me do the 'sealed lips, throw away the key', so I can't shout from the roof tops just how much he's blessed me.

Last night, Chris Buchanan tweeted a 'you're welcome' about the chance to be in the movie and walk the red carpet. He got how important it was to have the 'old timers' involved. Jewel also 'get it'. Poor Alan, I still think he's clueless!! lol. Adam also knows, personally, how much 'we' were all there, all along. Dang, now I'm snuffly again!

Joss Whedon is a self-avowed socialist who campaigned for and donated to Barack Obama. Just accept it. Best to ignore his political leanings as well as those of Nathan's and enjoy the show. Just sayin'.

Yes but even for Joss what he and how he spoke at ComicCon was uncensored rambling due to sleep deprivation.

I am certain that he was more than likely sleeping or just waking up during the roundtable discussion. He didn't leave the line until about 4am. Who knows when he got to sleep. I enjoyed Gina a lot. She was beautiful. Lesson learned about betting against Joss.

Can't beleive the secrets Tim Revealed. I loved Alan's reaction to the DARK stuff.

And that's when you usually get what they are really thinking. Which is why it is often used in interrogation. And why libs think it is torture.

I was glad to learn something new, that was pretty cool. Made me really sad for what we missed.

I was, too. I just hope Ron is okay.

I wanted more, a whole lot more! But I loved that Jewel and Joss explained the Firefly extended family ~ "they meet each other at conventions" ~ it was something I echoed to A.B. that the camaraderie they experienced on set expanded out into the world. I was introduced to FF around the time they were filming the movie and it was such an exciting time. Reading people's experiences on set ~ the guy who was an Alliance officer posted on fireflyfans.net ~ and then the whole Universal Day! I was considering flying out to Comic Con for the day, but I ended up going to D*C instead.

The discussion about the dark eps was intense....and I yelled "Rosie!" too. ;)

I don't think any of them have forgotten. Gina was great saying "sci-fi fans are the best in the world."

They were all so awesome. I was surprised Tim revealed what he did. I hope there's a special DVD ~ they know they have a freakin' market for it.

Just watched it. I miss the show, but I would miss the friends I've made due to this show even more.
And I'm thinking you weren't burdened with an overabundance of schooling.

Ann said she's glad Joss didn't get a chance to do that.
