The episode "Magnificent Warriors" in the original BSG took place in SERENITY- a town that you never left once you became sheriff.

More influence on a young Joss???

hell, yes! and you only have to look at Zoe's threads - she could've stepped right out of an old Viper.

...And this also explains the many glowing comments Joss has made about the new BSG!

Got Screencaps ?

I also seem to have a vestigial

memory of a town called 'Serenity' , in an old

Western...I think Raquel Welch might have been

in it...'Course , it could just be my brain

confabulatin' again...

Ok, ok okI got it!
Joss is a young clone of Glen Larson, without any conscious memories, but genetically retains all that Glen did. Therefore, he tried to copy BSG, but mixed up the details.
AANDD.. Glen also did Buck Rogers!!
What comparisons do we have there?

Hence the casting of Monica- another man-killer type!

I finally see how Joss is the ultimate copycat- just like Tarantino!!!

Playin' it Chrisisall

Magnificent Warriors...great episode with Twilight Zone veteran Barry Nelson, and Match Game icon Brett Sommers( wife of Jack Klugman ).
Quite the "Whedonesque-type" presentation, with drama & humor & ironic twists aplenty.

Hey Chris...it's been a real kindness having you post all this original BSG stuff lately. Because of it, I watched Living Legend and Planet of the Gods this past weekend. Most shiny, and for my money the closest thing I own to Firefly. You da manisall!

I'm goin' thru 'em sequentially, as I just got the set. Tonight (after this post) it's Young Lords and Living Legend. No CGI can match Dykstra's stuff here, and that's good, 'cause they re-use it over and over.

And I'm not totally kidding about the seeds this show probably planted in Joss' skull.

Can't wait for War Of The Gods Chrisisall

Be sure you check out the BSG featurette on the last disc for comments by Patrick McNee and Anne Lockhart about War of the Gods. He's a hoot and she is still amazing.
