She was awesome, and she really brought out the hot in Simon. She would have been awesome for him. I like to think that someday she'll retire from the senate and run into said cute doctor on a backwater world....

I would have gone with horrified in that scene if Neil wasn't so awesome!

Speaking of horrifying, what was Tim Minear thinking in that bathhouse-on-Sihnon scene? I never wanted to see that, ever! Not enough brain bleach in the world! On the other hand, that episode was also the one with Mal finally telling Inara how he feels--and wasn't that some beautiful writing?--so I forgive him.

Yeah, as a person of faith, it didn't bother me that he was talking about faith but that he was talking in such a wishy-washy, anything goes sort of way. Grow a backbone, man!

….Hee, but you know, between all this and that article you posted, I’m starting to wonder what Joss would’ve done with the multi-cultural issue, if the show had continued to run. Because…well, I really don’t want to think he set out meaning to have racist implications. Oh, I'm sure he would have continued to fail. It's what he does re: race. *sigh* I know he doesn't mean to, but he really, really does.

I'm now crying that I'll never seen NPH and Rose Byrne in these roles. CRYING! Well, not really, but you know what I mean!
