But that's not what it should be. The source material is about as far from Disney as it gets, and had a lot of depth that their eye candy has none of.
I have to ask, do you have criteria beyond good looking people by which you judge things? Not to be insulting, but that's what you seem to post about for almost any movie or TV show you seem to like.

Yes, I do. A lot of criteria. Heck, we are all here because of Firefly, right? However, I try to be funny once in a while. Not successfully, but I try. And since I could not think of another thing the show has going for it more than Bridget Regan's looks, I went with that. It has it's good points, but none of those are huge factors, IMO.

You seriously need to lighten up. If you expected a program that is funded by ABC family and Disney to be more than light entertainment then perhaps you need to study Disney's motivation more closely. As for my criteria (a) what possible business is it to you and (b) since yuou don't know me and I am certain have not read every post I have ever posted your statement makes you look like an ass.

I think I demonstrated the hotness of the cast of Firefly in another thread. Now it's occurring to me that in such a picutre, it's criminal to omit Saffron.

I never claimed to have read all your posts, nor did I claim to know you. But I have seen a lot that revolved around "It's good, because so-and-so is hot". A LOT of those. So, I asked an honest question. Rather than enter into a discussion, or offer a simple "no", you get super-defensive. That defensiveness and avoidance of an actual answer pretty much tells me what I needed to know, I guess.
As for the show, maybe you should know more about the source material befor getting so damned snappy. i mean, sorry didn't look into who financed it, all I know about is the actual story, the characters, and the writer. But those are unimportant, I guess. But at least the star is all hunky, or whatever....

you ASSume I don't know the story, the books, the author.
My original post was a simple statement. I take the show for what it is....a Disney fantasy.

Based on available evidence, yes, that is my take.
Not that you've said anything to the contrary, and once again got defensive and evasive.
But your creative capitilization is just har-har clever. yeah....
But you're right, it is a Disney fantasy. Unfortunetly, I was actually expecting something that reflected the books. And even as a Disney fantasy, it's not a very good one.

Dude
I don't have to prove anything to you. I do not have to list everything I have ever read or seen or done for your edification.
So take a chill pill.

Nor did I ask you to. I asked a direct question. You got snippy and talked around it. Which is your perrogotive, just as it's mine to point that fact out.
But whatever. Seems I touched a nerve, so I'll leave you be. But you might want to take you're own advice, and chill (since between you and I, you seem to be the one who's upset - I was just curious).
