    I preferred Jewel Staite when she had a bit more weight to her

    She's too skinny now

    Edit: She's still incredibly hot, but I'm just saying

    She's cute, but Kaylee fawning is wierd. It's like watching someone express the desire to fuck a puppy.

    I don't get the hate for the intro. I thought it worked great with the theme of the show being essentially a space western.

    It's not the Western bit.

    It's the sounds like it was written by a rhythmless hack bit.

    I like the instrumentals. I'm really glad they let a musician take liberties with the instrumentals.

    The vocal part just doesn't quite fit the pattern it's trying to. It's bothersome.

    to me it just seems like you're expecting the vocals in the intro to sound extremely professional and that's exactly why I think the vocals work well for the show
    because it sounds like it's just some normal dude sitting at a campfire singing and I think that nails the character of the show
    it would sound out of place if it was some really good vocalist that sang it "perfectly"

    What grabbed me was they were cowboys in space and then there was a girl in a box for some reason and then the Mark Hammil look-alike got threaten by the big guy.

    That was the only episode I saw on TV. I was disappointed to learn that it was the last one, but happy to learn that it was the first one when I started watching it on DVD.

    Don't forget the part where the one dude got shot in the head out of nowhere.

    That was awesome.

    Ah shit while I was GIS'ing Morena Baccarin I got one result which turned out to have been posted on Stormfront, the white supremacist/neo-Nazi/skinhead dipshit forum

    and any time I stumble in there I can't help but read a few posts and be like this is what is wrong with the human race

    jewel staite is the prettiest in firefly

    she put on a few pounds for the role which bumped her right into "not malnourished" category and she just looks so cute all the time

    I thought it was a decent little series, and could have done with a bit more.

    Farscape, now, I could do with ten years of that.

    I always appreciated Firefly/Serenity because it didn't go all mystical with the Force, there weren't quad-lithium holo-deck transporters that made your Earl Grey tea, and there was a prolific use of the word ain't; I just enjoyed the concept that no matter how advanced technology became, there was always some shit-kicker who would toss around a slang phrase or seven.

    Mighty powerful stuff, I reckon.

    I like Morena Baccarin in Stargate: SG1.

    I haven't watched enough of the latest seasons of Stargate: Atlantis to make a decision regarding Jewel Staite.

    Favorite part of the series is when Mal kicks the guy into the engine.

    One thing I want to ask Alan Tudyk if I ever meet him:

    "In the Firefly Episode 'Out of Gas', one of the flashback scenes has Wash sporting a fetching mustache. Fake, CGI, or Alan?

    The best blooper was from that episode, when Wash turns around and Mal and Zoey are both wearing horrible fake mustaches just like his

    I always liked the constant, "SUMMER!" when people screwed up and she wasn't even around. Good stuff.

    It explains a few things, wraps up some stuff, but by no means completes a series.

    well
    it definitely wraps things up

    just not in a way many would find satisfying

    but the series was canceled so what do you expect?

    Silly Larlar - brains don't look pretty outside of their cases.
