It didn't rock like a rocking thing, but it didn't suck like a sucking thing either. The Buffistas who were over my house had no trouble sitting through a second viewing immediately after the first (Ed finally arrived a half-hour after we'd started watching, and we'd delayed a good 20 minutes before starting, so when it finished we went back to show him the scenes he'd missed, and just watched it all the way through again, without fidgeting).
There seems to be agreement that while this premiere episode wasn't anything special, it looks good in comparison to any of the Star Trek pilots or B5.
It was also much more "Western" -- including a train heist -- than most people including me expected.
Fi, I was disappointed. Low on the snark, high on the faux-Western dialogue. Hoping for better things.
But an amazing kickass black female second lead.
Well, sounds like I didn't miss much. Better luck next week.
I would just like to reiterate that I loved it.
That is the whiny teenage lizard vote.
You call that a whine? That's not a whine! You young people nowadays.
Betsy is me.
Though, I'm thinking we've been wandering into the wrong thread, because I'm almost certain that was in regards to Firefly.
Thanks for the feedback. I guess I'll look forward to it cautiously.
Fiona, I don't think you need to be cautious, per se. I don't think anyone loved it, but many people enjoyed it, a couple hated it, and some were disappointed.
So I think it's a very YJossverseMV experience.
um, you're not gonna tell me to "Get Out", now, right? I really hope not anyway. Although some Unamerican might...
