Everybody in Buffy/Angel who's crazy always ends up sounding like River. *chuckles*

Cordy isn't really a *bully*, per se. She was arrogant and flighty in season 1; she verbally jousts with everyone in seasons 2+3, but is fairly reliable in a crunch.

On Angel she really starts to develop into a very good person.

well, maybe i misread Cordy, and i admit that i haven't watched Angel (though i am very slowly getting the Buffy DVDs and am going to start on Angel soon). Maybe it's just the arrogance and (what i read as) misuse of power. But i was also a theatre/chorus geek in high school, so i am overly sensitive to those kinds power trips.

I saw Simon as more of a Wesley character than anything else. I mean, before Wesley decided that he was a badass, embracing the darkness.

By the way, I love the gorram site!

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..."

I've definitely noticed some almost (if not) identical humor in Buffy, Angel, and Firefly. Even lines that have been used before on two different shows! Someone else mentioned the "Hey you..." said by Kaylee and Tara, in the same kind of tone, etc.. There's also Zoe and Mal talking about Serenity in Objects in Space just after Mal has bought it and Zoe asks if he bought it "on purpose", which I know for a fact was almost identical to something someone said on Angel, just not sure who it was.
Anyone else catch some of the identical humor?
Oh, and my version of who is who on each show:
Mal = Angel
Zoe = Buffy
Kaylee = Fred EASILY or an early Willow
River = Drusilla
Jayne = ANYA!
Book = Giles
Wash = Xander
Inara = ??
Simon = ?? again

Firefly Now, Sig Later...

Okay, here's my take:

River: Dru
Jayne: Cordy (even Joss refers to Jayne as the Cordy of the group)
Book: Giles but with more sex
Simon: Early Wes
Kaylee: Willow
Wash: Xander
Mal: Angel
Inera: ???
Zoe: ???

The last two are hard for me the characters just weren't flushed out enough for me. I'm sure they will be in the movie!

I'd agree with all of the above and just speculate that:

Inara = Cordy &
Simon = Wesley

Apathy on the Rise. No One Cares.
