'War Stories'
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.
Does he even have a clue that Inara likes/loves him?
I think he's clueless on this one. Like in Room with a View (I know, it was all abbreviated, but I can't remember the abbreviations), when Cordelia says that the thing that makes her apartment perfect is that there is one little thing to fix, Mal's cluelessness about Inara is the thing I love to hate about him.
Put me in the Mal was serious when he thought Inara had kissed Saffron camp. I always laugh at that scene and Morena's reaction/expression is perfect.
Haven't seen this mentioned yet, and some of you may be interested. I sometimes watch the Lifetime channel (yes, mine is a sad life) and I've seen previews for a movie called Widow on the Hill. Jewel Staite plays the daughter of a widower. (Movie actually about widower who gets sucked into relationship with beautiful woman.) I have NO idea if it's decent, or how much of a role she has, but if you are curious it's airing on Monday Jan 24 at 9 pm ET. (Warning, it's inspired by true events.) Widow on the Hill
I also think Mal was convinced Inara had kissed Saffron. Morena's reaction was indeed perfect.
She's excellent all through the last part of that episode. Cracks me up every time.
Remember when we hated Morena and thought Inara was a terrible character? <sigh>
I think "Our Mrs. Reynolds" may have been the first time I Didn't hate Inara.

Probably the only time I didn't hate Inara.

Still there, still there, except for not actually hating the actress. Just her work here. She does well sometimes, but that's not enough.
I lent the DVDs to another co-worker, who dutifully watched Train Job first, because he was following airing order. Note to self for next co-worker: "be explicit".

What's this "we" jazz?
Some of us liked her from the start. I still think it's an airing-order thing.

Why don't people just watch them in the order they appear on the DVDs? Wouldn't you think that would be the default? Why would someone go out of his way to emulate the bass-ackwards Fox execs?
