I heard that there were some small videos of River being interviwed by a doctor or something? Anyone have any links to these?

Here are five of them (I don't know if there are more): http://downloads.scifinews.de/cat_1062.html

It's a German page. To download them just click on the little filmrolls and then the big link reading "Jetzt Downloaden / Streamen". That should do it.

As far as I know they were created to promote the BDM, so my guess is: about a year ago.

You might want to have a look at the thread "Flanvention Report - Followups and Answers" in General discussions. Summer made some remarks about the River Tam Sessions at a Q&A session last weekend.

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

That's kewl. My recollection tallies with your other reports about the "making of".

And by the way, "someone" is me, DonCoat, if you want to attribute that last section.

No no, I got the Serenity Special Edition DVD!
And I'm thrilled that the River Tam sessions were included, now we never have to worry about those copies online being lost.

AND I loved the cast (partial cast) commentary too...

The CE is chock full of goodies. Cast commentary, extras, and of course Session 416. All preserved for the future.

I love the Tam Sessions. I had always wanted to see them online but never could. Now they are all together on my shiny Collectors edition DVD. ( I love this DVD) I love how the sessions are not in the order you would expect but start with the last one first. I love it. I also liked the fact that we get to see 14 year old River having her interview about the academy she is excited about entering. It was almost a shock to me to see River sane, to see her before they got into her brain and how she steadily gets worse. It is heart breaking to see her want Simon and they tell her that she can't. You can hear and see her mind fragmenting as the sessions continue until she is the deadly weapon they wanted her to be.

The interviewer, the Doctor in the sessions is Joss correct?

Once you've been in Serenity you never leave. You find a way to live in it.

Yes, it was Joss as the doctor. He's also the voice of the storekeeper in the BDM. According to the commentary, the recording wasn''t as good as they wanted it so Joss did the voice in the editing room.
