Ok, tell me I'm delusional and reaching far far for this one, but I don't care one bit. 'Shindig' was used on Wonderfalls tonight - yeah, not exactly damning evidence, but after last weeks use of 'heart of gold' and 'whore', I'm taking anything I can get.

I noticed the shindig mention too, and my immediate thought was "this'll be on the site right after the show!"

i actually don't think it is coincidental, though

good eppy tonite too, i like Thursday for it better

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.


I missed that, which scene was it in? Might have been when my brother called and distracted me.

That was my thought exactly - I'm sure it's Tim, just getting in a dig or two at Fox.
I'm ALMOST hooked on this show now - and the move to Thursday can only help viewership

So, anyone wanna guess what'll be the next vague reference to amuse us Firefly fans?

Tim might just lay off for a couple of weeks, .... to throw the fans off the trail....

OR....this could be an intentional thing just to keep us watching, with the " watch and see what comes next " factor.

OR..there could be no such intentional attempt to this at all, it just happens the lines get written like that ( yeah, right )

A quick ( short ) list of things we might wanna be on the look out for..

Shiny - too obvious, no way
not so much - my personal fav
a special hell - it's got a chance
a goofy hat refernce ( how's it sit ? ) - would be too gorram funny.
juggling geese - ok, i'll stop now.

Actually juggling geese would be a possibility. Seriously-----inanimate geese statues juggling. I'd fit right in.

I kind of thought of Firefly in the Wound Up Penguin 'sode. The nun refers to God as "phantom bully in the sky". I think Joss in the commentary for Objects In Space referred to God as "the big bully in the sky". I wondered if that was a wave for Joss.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

The penguin made me think of Firefly too, CaptCDC. As a matter of fact, I have picked up on the use of Shindig and heart of gold as well. Not sure they are nods to Firefly or not, but it sure is comforting to think that they are nods.

From what I remember, it was when Jaye and Mahandra were in Jaye's trailer discussing why she decided to help Gretchen, and Mahandra referred to the 6 1/2th year reunion as a "shindig".

I think.

There's been firefly references in the last 3 episodes, far too many for it to be a coincidence, did you catch 'is there a reward?' and 'Binky' (both episode 2)

Ok... "reward" I get, but 'Binky'? I run the risk of utter embarassment by asking to what would that reference be ?
