[QUOTE="Darthjaye, post: 2930530, member: 16789"] Honestly though, it doesn't take Monte Cook to figure this out. Anyone who was a fan of the show (or cinema in general for that matter) can understand that pacing and cliff-hanger moments do much for the audience to keep them interested and waiting on edge for the next moment. Joss just seems to have a knack for finding the right characters and story's to convey this in his works. The moments that led to commercial breaks can still be picked out very easily on the DVD's. It's the reason why Monte (after watching the DVD's like the rest of us browncoat fans) can make that observation. To be honest, you can see this moreso in his early stuff with Buffy and Angel. The dramatic background music in these scenes led right into the commercials too. As for the Firefly and Serenity DVD's. Go get em (if you don't already own the Firefly DVD's) and make sure you grab them pennies too. Independently or together, they are both worth getting and watching a few times. Fan boy quotes and great moments from both. "Jaynestown" from the series is still one of my favorites. For some reason I keep thinking he said something about still having scenes he wanted to add back in for Serenity in future versions, but I may be wrong. [/QUOTE]
