You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
(As far as I’m concerned, the fact that she doesn’t like “Firefly” is a plus in my book. I’ve never seen an episode, and I’m so freaking tired of hearing people talk about it and moan about how it was cancelled early and what a freaking genius Joss Whedon is, that I will NEVER watch an episode unless someone ties me down and forces me to.)
Dwight: I wouldn’t try to force you. I saw advertisements for FF and thought that the show looked moronic. The show was by the guy that made ‘Buffy’, which meant (and still means) nothing to me. I hadn’t intended to watch it.
I flipped on the tube to watch something (I don’t remember what) and was early by an hour. The first episode of FF started, so I watched to see just how stupid it would be. And it was marginally OK with a few witty highlights. So I watched again next week and liked it less. I gave it one more try and it grew on me. Rewatching a year later made me like it a lot.
But I understand – the overexposure can put you off.
NOT like Firefly? Inconceivable!

Heh. I still *to this day* have not seen “Jurassic Park” because of all the hype that surrounded its release…
If you’ve read the book, Jay, don’t bother. JP was a cool summer Special Effects film, but a clotheshanger abortion of the book.
Oh, my wife likes firefly. 🙂
