Well, Simon's an Aussie. Which brings with it its own twisted sense of humor.
Mal: We're still flying. Simon: That's not much. Mal: It's enough.

Right.
Who else: Anna Torv (sp?) from Fringe is Australian - as are Anthony LaPaglia and Poppy Montgomery from Without a Trace.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
and Jason O'Mara is Irish.
He just gets yummier.
Unlike some of the rest of y'alls, I like him as Sam. I like John Simm, too, but I think JO'M is just different, not worse.
Harvey Keitel, on the other hand, Is No Phillip Glenister. Can't put my finger on exactly what's wrong with his performance, but whatever it is, it's Really Wrong.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Keitel is what killed the show for me. Can Not Take The Over Acting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Gene should dwarf Sam. Keitel, despite his intensity, in no way dwarfs Jason O'Mara.
And I still don't like their putting the show in New York. It's not an equivalent to Manchester.

I agree about New York. It works for other reasons but I think a rustbelt city like Pittsburgh or Detroit would have been a better choice.
And yeah, Keitel as Gene just doesn't work.
