i'm getting around to my last post, SRSLY.

Yesterday I realized that I kind of just... assume... that everyone in the (livejournal) universe watched and loved Firefly. THIS HAS TO BE FALSE, even among my friends list, thus, a poll:

I didn't watch it until a few years ago but I heart it. I need to rewatch because I don't remember a lot of stuff, but I don't know how people can NOT love it! The characters are just so perfect and amazing and UGH I just love it ♥

I've kinda sorta been rewatching in the last couple of days (I watched four random ones, and now I can't decide if I want to watch the others or not) and it... yes. I AGREE. IT IS VERY LOVABLE.

I liked it, but I didn't love it. Feel free to pelt me with rocks or whatever now.

That is a difficult thing to do through the internet, sry2say. ALTHOUGH REALLY: is liking but not loving really a rock-level offense? I'd say marshmallows are probably the only thing I've earned the right to pelt you with.

Are they stale old marshmallows? D:

IDK, I think I might have grown to love it if it had been on for longer than 13 episodes, but alas. :/

Do marshmallows really get stale? I always kind of assumed they would make like a twinkie and be the same ~forever~ :/

Sometimes I think I might have grown to love it less if it had lasted for awhile, actually. Mostly because Joss is Joss and there would have been death :/

FIREFLY ♥ ♥ ♥ OH MY GOD, so in the production of Dr Horrible that we are doing at my school, a graphics kid designed our projections, and in the laundromat one of the machines has a little button that says "wash"... AND THE OTHER ONE SAYS "ZOE" AND I DIE I DIE I DIE.

Iiii have not seen Bones yet. But. Angela/Hodgins is so adorable! I mean, season two was better than they've been lately, but stiiiiill. THE BREAK-UP WAS STUPID, THOUGH. They SHOULD just get married. I can't wait to see Cam's daughter, omg!

OH MY GOD THAT IS THE CUTEST THING IN THE WORLD.

I don't know why but I just... was never into them! I like them both plenty separately but I never found them cute together. Idk. HOWEVER CAM AND HER DAAAAAAUGHTER (she's not a baby she's sixteen) DIZZY, oh my god, it was so cute. I... love families :(

Watched Firefly. Loved Firefly.

I mostly just ignore Angela and Hodgins when there's any "romance" stuff with them. I never minded them together, but the breakup made no sense and now I'm just totally over them.

The scene at the very end with Cam and the girl (old lady alert: I just finished the ep 10 minutes ago and I can't remember her name) made me cry! I mean, I'm totally hormonal right now from pms, but maaaaaan that was such an emotionally charged scene. I hope it works out for them.

They mostly just exhaust me. Angela/Hodgins is kind of like the Buy More scenes in Chuck... the one lame thing in a generally awesome environment. Except ugh, that metaphor doesn't quite work because I like Angela and Hodgins and I reaaaaaaally do not like the Buy More people.

I was totally tearing up too. And I may or may not be downloading it now just so I can watch it again. I hope we get to see more of her/them (I don't remember her name either? Michelle?)! I'm crossing my fingers for Parkerish frequency.

I was going to try and watch Firefly during some of my quiet night shifts a couple of months ago but it just didn't happen. I think I found the fact that that the pilot episode was two hours too overwhelming and didn't get more than ten minutes in? I'd like to try it again though.

And yes, the Angela/Hodgins is laaaaaaaaaaaaame. I just feel like they're teasing us with Booth/Bren, to dangle that relationship too is a waste of time because I'll never be more invested in that one, I'm just like, let them be the happy together couple that gets to be together without all the stupid drama!

elapses April 3 2009, 06:29:07 UTC

You really should! Everyone loves it! Except for two people who just like it and two who should not have answered the second question because apparently they haven't seen it.

I KNOWWWWWWW. I feel like lately TV in general is terrified of portraying a "boring" functional relationship, which... I guess is almost understandable because there are times when that has burned them in the past, but. There is such a thing as taking it too far the other way and it's called Gossip Girl. It really doesn't make sense, at this point, for Angela and Hodgins to not be together.
