I don't think Kaylee is from Harvest

So many fanfic authors have Kaylee's home planet as Harvest that it's nearly canon by now, but I've just been examining page 12 of the Serenity visual companion, and the planet labeled as Harvest looks deeply green and rich, and nothing at all like the dusty prairie world implied in Kaylee's introduction.
Okay, maybe I'm not being fair. It is a whole world, after all. Bound to be some prairie somewhere, I suppose. But since there are plenty of planets listed that look less lush and green, I would put her on one of those instead. Maybe Bernadette, Aberdeen, Kerry, Whittier, Liann Jiun, Salisbury, Highgate, or Deadwood.
Anyway, just a thought I had.


Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

I don't think Monty's last name is Reynolds.

hmmm yeah I remember it being kind of sun baked and a lot like the dust bowl in America during the Great Depression...maybe it was that kind of thing, a temp drought, but it seems more likely to be something less farm conducive

No, I imagine it isn't. Who said it was?

Where do we actually see Kaylee's home world in the series? In OOG, I thought we really just see the inside of Serenity during Kaylee's introduction. If you're referring to the very end where Mal sees Senerity for the first time, I didn't think that was necessarily where Kaylee came from. I assumed they sailed with Bester for a spell, until Mal gave him the old heave ho and hired a real mechanic.

It's just one of those things I've seen pop-up, often in fanfics. IMDb has it listed that way, too. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0579540/

Mal referred to her as a 'prairie harpy' when telling Bester to get her off the boat and get it running again. I guess I got it from that.


How very odd that Monty's last name would be thought to be Reynolds. Does it say anywhere in the actual credits? Now I have to check.

Funny... I just saw the name "Monty Reynolds" not an hour ago, on this very site. It's in the database of planet descriptions, and says that "Monty Reynolds" was arrested on one of the planets. Sorry, I don't recall which one, but I did think the man's name had to be wrong!

Why did it come up here? Random weird coincidence!

Kaylee's home planet isn't known so fic authors use what they want.

I read somewhere (a script maybe?) that Monty's last name was Reynolds.
