I hate starting a new thread for this, but I wasn't sure where to put it . . . Any big fans of this that could help me out? I watched the original series back when it was on Netflix. I watched all of season 1 over the course of a few weeks and then watched the Serenity movie. At least that's what I thought I did. In the movie, Spoiler: uh, spoiler? Wash dies. I wanted to re-watch the whole thing, so I bought a used copy of the complete series on DVD. This is the listing for the discs: That puts Serenity first. It also lists the episodes in a different order than IMDB https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0303461/episodes?season=1&ref_=tt_eps_sn_1 So, if you watch it in that order, doesn't that thing with Wash in Serenity create a pretty big spoiler? If I watch this with someone who has never seen it, I feel like I should do Serenity last. But, it's been several years. And, I'm old, so maybe my memory is failing me.
First, the Serenity in the TV Show/episode is not the movie... no spoilers. 2nd, the bright fuckwads at Fox that cancelled the show weren't happy with the pacing of the pilot, so told them to run an "exciting" episode first to draw people in, which is why the order they were meant to be shown in is different than the actual air dates. https://www.quora.com/Did-Firefly-air-out-of-order-If-so-why
