I either didn't know or (more likely) didn't remember the marketing stuff.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, that seems to rarely get mentioned in articles about the show, but as soon as they mentioned "Walkin' on the Sun," it all came back.
I remember being very skeptical of the show going in, and it took me several episodes to really get into it.

I remember being on board in a fuckyeah sort of way when Mal kicked Crow into the engine. Never saw the ads. I heard of Minear telling the dark Inara tale, but had chalked that up to shit in his head that hadn't made it to future scripts yet, and didn't realize that the networks had awareness of this development. And honestly I never found myself onboard with this idea. Not to say that my reaction is right, there's a huge difference in reading an idea and seeing it executed.

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.
Yeah, I don't think "Inara gets gang-raped by Reavers" is a story that ever needed to be told.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I was appalled at that story and am rather glad it was never done.

I do remember that I was eating when that episode aired and I literally choked on my dinner. And yeah, the show had my devotion at that point too.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I was turned off the by TV ads and had to be talked into watching the show by a friend who pretty much forced the DVD set into my hands.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Ditto, except it was dragged to the movie, then we did a marathon of all the DVD's.

Wow, omnis. Was that when you joined the board? Because I can't imagine being on the board and not watching it, at least for a few eps (I know some Buffistas never quite took to it, much like Dollhouse).
