I'd like to be king of all Londinum and wear a shiny hat.

of course, maybe a thread where people have to post only the thing they like the MOST about firefly. no lists, no top tens, no "i like these things..." pin it down to one, specific thing. that would get some brain matter moving.

Bushwhacked always bugged me too. The way Mal just predicts exactly what is going to happen to the derilect. How the heck would Mal know? How does he know so well how reavers would act? Going to familiar ground and stuff. Which also made no sense since Serenity wasn't familiar ground. The guy had only seen the infirmary. The alliance trusting him to help them doesn't even seem remotely right for the alliance. Then Mal having to save the captain when there were a bunch of armed alliance men around? Just bad bad bad.

I think I had to drag that out of repressed memories it took me so long to remember. I don't watch that episode much.

And .... If Simon, Book and Jayne are wearing masks when they cut down the bodies, why, oh why, didn't Zoe and Mal smell anything when they unlocked the door?

Also, the timing is off. It takes as long to cut down all those bodies as it does for Kaylee to cut through the Reavers' trap? And Jayne comes in with the crates just as Kaylee finishes?

This one isn't one of my favorites either, although I think it's growing on me. Particularly the interrogation scene(s) with Harken and the crew. Some of that is smile time.

OK so here's another that I just remembered as I watched the episode last night. In Our Mrs. Reynolds the guys working the net talk about whether Serenity is worth taking. When they're talking about it just being parts the guy says, "Thing will run forever, they got a mechanic even...".

Now I've always thought he said "half her weight" or "worth half her weight". Which annoyed me because, how would he know the mechanic was female. Though I just looked up the shooting script and it says "half awake". So maybe I've just be hearing him wrong all this time. Which is even more annoying. Now I'm going to have to go turn on the captions to see what it says he's saying.

i do enjoy those interrogation scenes. wash is pretty funny and of course, jayne's response is quite appropriate. i always enjoyed zoe's responses.

fought with him during the war?
fought with a lot of people during the war.
and your husband?
fight with him sometimes too.

and of course, i love her line to end the conversation.

just don't see how it's any of your business.

curt, to the point and perfectly in line with her very business-like character.

Oh my goodness, yes. Wash, trying to be a hardass in War Stories. I fast forward past it every time, because his lines seem so hokey coming out of him. That's terrible, isn't it. I'VE BETRAYED A TV SHOW!!! NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

All apologies to Mr. Tudyk and all the browncoats. I hate myself now.

Kaylee: "What's so damn important about being proper? It don't mean nothing out here in the black."
Simon: "It means more out here. It's all I have..."

What priest in their right mind would care if someone wouldn't like them praying for them? As a faithful person, just because someone doesn't believe in God or has some problem with God in general, doesn't stop me praying for their safety or happiness or whatever.

Lol its just funny that Book, a Shepherd, would not understand such a fundamental part of the Christian faith and Inara would. That's pretty much the one line in firefly that annoys me

"That's not a Shepherd."
