Totally agree about dropping the viewer into the verse. They talk in the commentary about trying to get in as much exposition as possible, but I do prefer the in medias res approach.
Man, just ascend already.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Ack! Forgot to do this yesterday. By the looks of it, I wasn't the only one.
Bushwacked
The game! What are the rules??
"We are all running from something, I suppose" (should be show motto)
"Ghosts" - Yeah. Premonition. Zombie time.
"Some one could be hurt" So genuine. Jayne, he is so caring.
How did they get the other ship to stop spinning so they could join airlocks??
The balloon is haunting. Dunno why. Creepy!
"You have this on wrong"
"He's a real beast!"
"Charity would be putting a bullet in his brainpan"
"Jayne, you are scaring the women"
"How we treat our dead makes us different than those who did the slaughter"
"If I mess up, it's not like you could yell at me"
The stack of supplies that Jayne wheels off. Those are SKB equipment racks. use them in sound all the time!
"No children on board" - Oo! Smart!
PURPLE BELLIE!!!
"Captain was looking for a pilot, I found me a husband. It all seems to have worked out"
"Have you ever been with a warrior woman?"
Hiding in the vacuum of space!! They are technically "on" the ship, just not IN the ship. Love how River is thrilled with being out there, and Simon is scared sh**less.
I love how the med display is reading "abnormal" until he slices folks.
"Let's go again!"
Why does the dude keep grabbing blades. Shouldn't he just keep ahold of one?!?
I think the Alliance dude believes in Reavers now!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I love this one. The first and second halves were like two different episodes. It feels longer than 42 minutes - not draggy, just so much happening. River outside was wonderful, and Simon's face when he realized she wasn't scared.
REAVERS

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I went to the annual Can't Stop the Serenity viewing tonight. 11 years on and it's still selling out the (admittedly small) theater.

Shindig! One of my fav's! Mal gets all chivalrous, and Kaylee gets girly.
(Am I the only one doing this? We said Mondays yes - says the guy posting Tuesday into Wednesday)
They need a holographic mirror at that bar (like the other one had a holographic front window). Don't they know fights happen in bars?
"I wouldn't stand for it, jealous man like me" Wash is so cute.
It's cute how Mal is jealous of clients.
Love how Zoe makes captain walk back to the ship for being a jerk to Kaylee.
"Captain Tight Pants" !!!
betting with chores. Better than cash.
Kaylee does love those strawberries!
Hate how those bitches are mean to Kaylee.
"Use of s'what?"
"you had trouble with the pillar" Ha!
Love how River mockingbirds Badger.
"That there. Exactly the kinda diversion we coulda used"
"He thinks he's doing well, doesn't he". Poor Mal.
"Mercy is the mark of a great man. I guess I'm a just a good one. Well, I'm all right."
"I was going to watch. It was very exciting."
I love the practicality of things. The door is also the ladder into the bunk.
"Don't care much for fancy parties. Too rough"

Tonight I watched via Blu-Ray. Got them on sale. Silly, given it's on Netflix and I have the DVD's. I thought BRD could hold 50x more than a DVD? Why do they still need 3 BRD for Firefly? t /rhetorical question

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I don't want it to be true, but Variety and other places are reporting Ron Glass has died.
Fuck.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
I just saw that. What the everloving fuck.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Dammit.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh god, don't say that. You know what a bastard this year is, it'll have to show us it still has stuff in the queue.
