It was a good night. Stacey and I drank a lot of tequila, watched the first disc of Firefly, then had a couple of hours of glorious sex. Life can't get any better. I say that almost every day and almost every day it is better than the day before.
Firefly is quite good. There are some things that I have to work to get past, though. I can't tell if it is the same actor -- cause I generally don't care about actors -- but the shoot first crew member reminds me completely of the guy in Mission Impossible who was responsible for getting stuff the rogue team needs. It just seems like the same character.
It's also a western. Josh knew that, I guess, 'cause he even has a train robbery! Mostly it's a good set of characters. Josh, though, does have a tendency to create caricatures rather than fully rounded characters. Over time, like in Buffy, the characters tend to soften and flesh out well. Perhaps it's what is required to write for TV.
I'll watch the rest of the set, then the movie. I expect, though, that, like any other themed show, it was going to get really difficult to fine good story lines. Buffy, for instance, had to fight more than vampires and to deal with all kinds of magic stuff in order to keep up the viewer interest. That, too, though, is the nature of TV.
It's a lovely day in paradise. I think I'll go work in the garage for a bit then get ready for the cast meeting.
Love.
