Hm. Ask Tim. Or, ask Joss at ComicCon.
Angel: How're you feeling? Faith: Like I did mushrooms and got eaten by a bear.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Yeah, it sounds to me like Kayrilee.

Isn't he speaking to Kaylee?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I wonder who would write a story where one character is named, say, Bob, and a second character is introduced to us named Larry, except that Larry's real name is actually Dob?
That is to say, despite the fact so many Firefly names are really obvious nouns, they aren't all really obvious nouns that are easily mistaken for one another when spoken aloud. I think you are only allowed to do that on television if you are working with Larry, Daryl and Daryl, and then only if the Daryls don't speak.

Or on Wonderfalls.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Just listened again. I know it isn't, but it still sounds like Jerry Lee to me. Oh well.
I remember Joss saying in an interview way long ago that he gave his character's names with clearly different vowels sounds. Now I think about that whenever I sound out character names in my head. It's a really effective way of distinguishing between characters.
Except when one of the actors kinda slurs someone's name in an odd way.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
It sounds like he was starting to say "Jewel" then switched to "Kaylee" at the last possible second.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
...Larry, Daryl and Daryl, and then only if the Daryls don't speak.
Or only speak during the finale episode.

About the "Kaylee - Jerry Lee" thing.. Wasn't Mal all drugged up after kissing Saffron at this stage? That would explain the slurring.
Sorry, don't have the DVDs on me to confirm. Will be getting them as soon as they are on sale in Aus.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
