Firefly - A Beginner's Guide

[dallyra]

OK, so Joss knows I'm always pimping Firefly. Every change I get, I'm telling people to watch.

There's only one problem with that (apart from me annoying everyone, of course). The minute people turn round and ask me 'So, what's Firefly about?', I have no clue what to say. It's such a complex show, with so many different layers, a huge backstory

That was great! Anyone who hasn't seen it would be silly to ignore it after that.

You definitely caught the voice of the show there too. I think "creepifying" is my new favorite word.

Aww, that was fun. :-D I just finished the series last night, and was very, very sad to be done with it. Because damned if I didn't fall completely for it, as predicted. ;-) Siiigh. We probably won't get the movie in theatres where I live unless it's a big smash hit (please, God, please!), which just sucks because I WANT IT. Like, now.

And, randomly, it is the best thing ever that they say 'shiny.' That shocked the heck out of me, since, well, I say 'shiny.' And then . . . they were saying 'shiny.' And it was insane, man! And clearly a sign that this show was meant to be one of the many fictional loves of my life. :)

And, oh, sigh, I want more. FOURTEEN EPISODES IS NOT ENOUGH. I am kinda tempted to track down Fox, somehow, and kick them. Lots of times.

what a hunk of junk!

I'm just kidding, don't hurt me!

Well, I'm not much of a sci-fi person, but I suppose I could give it a try. Just for you! :P

[dallyra]

Go on, watch it! For meeee? :P

It isn't really like sci-fi anyway. Although I can't really use the 'I don't like scifi either' argument since getting into shows like BSG, Firefly isn't really sci-fiy at all. It's set in space, but it doesn't feel like it is. And that didn't make much sense.

Just watch it and you'll see what I mean! :P

VERY nice! Although I might have to hurt you for using tyhe 'It's Dark' cap ... that scene from bushwhacked, with the dead bodies, gives me awful nightmares *shudder*

But really, this is awesome. It just needs more Wash!! :P
