Baby if you ever wondered
Wondered whatever became of me
I'm floating in the 'Verse
Out in the black of space
Pulling heists aboard Serenity

This is getting to be an epic mashup.

OOPS! Kaylee! I'm horrible with namez. everything that soundz similar iz jumbled up in the same junk drawer in my brain.

And maybe Wash iz Jonny Fever.

Seriously, Gary Sandy and Nathan Fillion are completely interchangeable. (aside frum Gary being a generation older)

Trying to think who iz Arthur 'Big Guy' Carlson in Firefly. Maybe the Captain uv the Dortmunder?

River = Les Nesman

Venus is part Book, part Zoe (not just because they're all black) because I was thinking Johnny Fever for Wash and Venus is kind of his partner but he is also very spiritual.
But Johnny IS a doctor and Kaylee/Bailey has a crush on the doctor.
You'd have to give him a bit of Mr. Universe too for being in charge of the waves.
Who is the dumb, 'big guy' who wants to be in charge? Jayne/Carlson.
Totally agree with Sandy/Fillion, that's how I found this in the first place, seeing if anybody else noticed the similarity.
Can't agree with River/Nessman. Maybe Les and Herb are Fanty and Mingo.
The only thing I can think of for River is, she is the music. Firefly had a lot of good music but WKRP had a lot of stuff that would really move you; strong and beautiful and mysterious.
