OMG, they do exist

I couldn't believe it. My friend, Brian, that I converted was brought up firefly with an old college buddy he saw today. Said buddies response "yeah, I caught half of one of the episodes when it was on fox, but i thought it was boring and had bad acting."

Brian's jaw dropped on the table when he heard that. I mean, I can see if its not your genre, don't like the depiction of the future or something, but bad acting?? Our only explanation is that a.) he was expecting it to be exactly like Buffy and b.) not enough T&A for the guy. I'm still just floored by this. I mean, I'd initially been hesitant to try to get Brian to watch the DVDs because we do have different tastes (when I first got hooked on the comic strip Get Fuzzy he couldn't stand it --- said only girls liked it cause it was all girl humor).

Oh well, guess all the Nielsen families responded to the show like Brian's college friend. Its a sad commentary on today's art though that anyone could describe the acting on Firefly as bad
