I get it! But, ouch!
By the way, you might want to view the actual movie, "Soylent Green". It just happens to be one of my all time, old timey, back in the olden days movies. Then you won't be laughing when you say "Soylent Green is People!", 'cuz you'll know. (I actually saw this movie at the theatre when it was first released, and yes, it's rather corny -- but it wasn't then!) Try it, you'll like it!

"Firefly" is the vehicle Joss Whedon uses to control our minds, emotions, and actions, not to say that is a bad thing, which alot of you are assuming.
River was't the same person after "Blue Sun", was she?
I am not the same person I was before "Firefly", are you?
AM I NOT MERCIFUL?!?!?!?

That was nowhere near as cool as my interpretation.
I definately had a whole thing going with Fox as our Saviors, rescueing us from the plight of too much entertaining television. It's plainly evil for Joss to kill our ignorance, to unviel our eyes to the ugly truth of television: most shows are terrible. It took a really good one for us to figure out.
Joss somehow reveals truths we wouldn't otherwise see. Burn him at the stake.

It's a stretch, but I guess I can see what you're saying.

Their is truth in what you have said Piston, but don't kill the messenger, or lose the fact that the Fox execs responsible for the cancelation of "Firefly" are the true enemy, may they all get fired, work crappy jobs, and get eaten/raped/skined by Reavers.

Assumptions, assumptions, assumptions. How are they justified?

I'm not the same person I was 1 minute ago. So, what's your point?
I really think that you are trying to find a deep philosophy where none exists. This is a TV show, not Nietzsche.

yeah, I'm sure you can compare that last minute to the "Firefly" experience.
BRILLIANT!

No, that's not it, but having never seen that movie, that line is still funny to me.
I hope you are ready for what I have to tell you, cause quite simply it will blow your mind, the truth that is, and it has been right in front of our collective noses, here goes.
The Serenity theme, at first I thought it was corny, as hell, but the more I listened to it, the more I liked it, now that i've learned the lyrics, it's just too damn difficult to sing, I get choked up. That's when the truth of it all came to me like a needle into my brain...
"Joss" is Blue Sun, and we are "River"
END OF TRANSMITION
