'Out Of Gas'
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
HoG is one of the most yee-haw episodes there is.
It's also been criticized by some (including me) for taking the trope of the "whore with a heart of gold" and.... doing nothing with it. Not even one little twist. Pretty much every stereotype is played out. No subverting whatsoever.
Geez, I LIKED HoG.
Cool. I watched Trash last night - good stuff, and lots of the funny. But it's Jayne and Simon in the infirmary that'll stay with you.
(Was Ariel shown out of order, by the way? I was surprised to see on the DVDs that it came so late in the series, but it could just be me.)
I'ma try to hit the other two tonight.
Oh, but my sister has only seen about half of the first run eps, so I'll make sure she watches Objects in Space before the movie if we have time. Thanks for the heads-up, Gris.
I liked HoG, too. But I have come to acknowledge that I am pretty undemanding in my Firefly love. Any (negative) criticism anyone has made of any episode was something that I just didn't notice or didn't care about.

I didn't read any discussion of the unaired eps till I watched them, and while I could see the reasoning behind the HoG dislike, I still enjoyed it.
Trash is my favorite of the unaireds, though.
I think Trash might be my favorite, period. It is certainly the one I watch the most.
Of course, I also think that Pangs or Intervention is my favorite Buffy, so I guess I like the lite.
"Trash" is definitely my favorite of the unaired. I love Disc 3 like whoa.
Unaired.
Oops. Well, I liked all of the unaired episodes, but probably like The Message best. Though I don't know if it's essential for the movie.
Supposedly, none of the episdodes, aired or unaired, are essential for the movie.
Not that I've seen it and know, though.
Yeah, none of the unaired episodes are really jumping out at me as being necessary for the movie.
