schneefinkTwo weeks seems to be a critical time: half the exchange students I know are currently sick, including me. In bed with a lot of blankes, a hot-water bottle (purple with a little penguin on it, at the moment my favorite birthday present I ever got from LB) and tea is the perfect time to finally watch Firefly.
No spoilers, please.
It really is a Western in space - they even have dramatic scenes where they ride on horses while the sun sets over the hills! Show-downs in a valley with cowboy hats and guns! And spaceships. This one has charm, even though it's not particularly pretty.
I've already seen "Serenity" the movie, which made me fall in love with the characters even faster. No surprise there. Zoe! And Wash, role-playing with plastic dinosaurs, there are no words. They are so cute.
Kaylee and Serenity: "good girl", awww. I hope we get lots of Kaylee/Inara friendship!
I'm not yet convinced by Mal and Simon (but optimistic) and skeptical about Jayne, but we'll see, and curious about River.
I liked the plot, too: it gave a good impression of the setting, of the work they're doing, good character dynamics and the potential for more, and it was always interesting.
I can't think well enough to say more, but these episode reviews are for me anyway, and I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up rewatching it. (Pretty sure, actually, because there are only fourteen episodes and I'm here five months.) In the next days I need a pretty icon.
