I'm not sure I noticed that the show does actually display her fantastic body (with those cheeseburger-added pounds) before.
I may be the only one, but I think she looks better with the extra weight.
Mal: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea. Zoe: Thanks for sayin', sir.
'Serenity'
Firefly 4: Also, we can kill you with our brains
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.

I may have to seize the cat.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I don't think you're the only one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Interview with Neil Gaiman and Joss Whedon.
Don't know if it's spoilery for Mirrormask or Serenity yet.
eta: It's not.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I hear Jewel was not required to regain weight for the movie.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Kiba, you're definitely not the only one.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Kiba, you're definitely not the only one.
She looks kinda' like a Hollywood starlet now. Back on the series she looked like a real person. OK, maybe that's too harsh on the starlets - I guess what I mean is in the series she looked like someone I could conceivably meet and get to know in everyday life.
Also, is 'starlet' used these days?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I thought she was cuter with the extra weight, too. But she is still beautiful, and I don't think she's starving herself to be thin or anything destructive. She's said that keeping the extra weight on was unpleasant, because she had to eat more than she wanted to. So I guess she just has a fast metabolism. Poor thing.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I think she looked better with the extra weight too, but as it's been said, it's not like she's starving herself. Having to force oneself to eat lots cheeseburgers and donuts (if only I was forcing myself to eat the cheeseburgers and donuts I do.) is just as unhealthy as barely eating in an attempt to become super skinny.

I disagree. If your destination weight is a healthy one for your frame (even if it's not your default), then it's not so bad. Super skinny is healthy for very few people. Jewel's TV!Kaylee weight might have been unfun to maintain (and that's enough grounds, IMO, to try and not do it anymore), but as long as she wasn't yoyoing, I don't think she was doing herself much harm, if any.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
In "Objects in Space", in the scene in which we get to see things from River's point of view, Kaylee is the only one who doesn't seem to radiate something completely different to River than the words she's actually physically pronouncing at the moment.This is half true. Anyone see her giving River the skunk-eye right when Simon says, "I would be there right now"? I liked how they snuck that in there. She doesn't have a lot going on under the surface, probably the least next to Jayne, but she's got something.
