October 2
Our Five-Minute Firefly launch continues today with two more of Jade's fivers: "Bushwhacked" and "Our Mrs. Reynolds." (Noticed the new front-page gag for this event yet?)

Don't make me hurt you. I've got both the actual theme song and the Mosquito spoof memorized.

And I still don't get it. Probably because I've never seen Firefly, and I have no idea why people are losing their heads about Serenity (which I am assuming is a film based on Firefly...or something?. Yes, I am aware I'm rubbish.)

Never seen Firefly? I smell a challenge! :P
(You are correct in your assumption, by the way. the gag refers to a line in the intro song that goes "You can't take the sky from me/Since I found Serenity" - it's fairly self-explanatory once you know that.)

Actually, the lines occur in the other order. These are the full lyrics:
Take my love, take my land Take me where I cannot stand I don't care, I'm still free You can't take the sky from me Take me out to the black Tell 'em I ain't comin' back Burn the land and boil the sea You can't take the sky from me There's no place I can be Since I found Serenity But you can't take the sky from me... The song is called "Ballad of Serenity," and for those who didn't know this, it's by Joss himself. (BVS fans know of Joss's fondness for musical composition -- he wrote all the songs in "Once More With Feeling" and co-wrote "Blue," the song played at the beginning and end of S7's "Conversations With Dead People.") It's an effective theme that fits the show's atmosphere perfectly. You can download it at FireflyWiki. One more comment on the theme: the line about finding Serenity isn't just a pun. It makes more sense in light of this scene from the original pilot: Simon: If [the Battle of Serenity] was so horrible, why'd he name the ship after it? Zoe: Once you've been in Serenity, you never leave. You just learn to live there.

IT's also on the soundtrack
Serenity is also on the soundtrack and I think he co-wrote most of the music for the film

Just for comparison, the Mosquito theme is:
Take my dog, take my cat Western without cowboy hats Look at me, I'm on TV You can't take this show from me Take our Doctor, make him squeal I'm told our whore is quite a deal We say "zed" instead of "zee" You can't take this ship from me They're airing baseball yet again We might not break episode ten But you can't take this show from me...
