Today being the 23rd anniversary of the premiere of Firefly, I am both, doing a rewatch of the series as it aired should have aired, and started a new community for discussion of the show and related spin-off media.

Okay, yeah, that seems really dumb. When I watched the series (on Disney+), I’m pretty sure Serenity was first. That’s the one that starts with Shepherd Book walking around the shipyard, correct?
That is how it is on Hulu, I wager it is the same on D+
Opening scene is the battle of Serenity Valley, it cuts away to the crew collecting illegal salvage and having a close call with the Alliance, they pick up Shephard and Simon as passengers / commuters on Persephone which I think is the scene you’re referring to.
