I am sorry if this has been already posted but I only joined this wonderful community yesterday.

Enough apologies...

At the moment, I live in New England and we have this semi-great cable company called Comcast. At first, I enjoyed their whole On Demand feature where I can watch a whole list of great movies whenever I want and play them as many times as I want to as long as I pay a pretty small fee of $30 a month. Well, that was until I watched all of them in a matter of weeks. Then I noticed...TV series aren't really that stellar nowadays (that's a lie: Nip/Tuck, Rome, Entourage).

To get to the point...

Comcast has offered the whole series for $1 an episode. Three episodes come in $3 bundles. Considering the whole Firefly series is $35 on Amazon, the whole idea of paying $15 for the whole series on Comcast even though you are not able to listen to great commentary is rather splendid. Then again, seeing as they won't be available past April, the idea isn't that great. But, whatever.

Check it out if you have Comcast On Demand. You should find it under the 'Events & Specials' category.

Peace.

Mal: No, I'm sure he was a...very bad person.
Niska: My wife's nephew. At dinner I am getting earful. There is no way around that.

Whoops. Looks like there are actually three.

At least, I can say the word count in my post was longer than the other two.

Welcome!

Are the episodes on Comcast delivered in widescreen? If not, that's another good reason to go with the DVDs instead.

OTOH, every bit of Firefly-based revenue is more ammunition in our battle to get more Firefly/Serenity. So don't stop on-demanding on my account.

Ain't about you, Jayne. It's about what they need.
