Firefly E13. Please indulge me. This isn’t kdrama but it’s the way American TV used to be, and it is why I love kdrama now. Listen to her speak of “strength”. She love Mal.
Inara says “When you live with that strength, you get tied to it. You can’t break away. And you never want to.”. She is providing an allusion to describe how everyone in Mal’s sphere of influence feels. Yes, it is deep, but watch this hidden-gem series from 2003 and you will understand.
This was a great series. Browncoats unite! There were several Beanies back in the day who were fans. Then came the problematic statements and behavior of the creator of the series. So what to do…? Whole debates start here…
Ditto. Even gifted people like JW are fallible. I feel we can still appreciate his achievements like Firefly and Buffy the Vampire Slayer while still holding our own personal beliefs about his personal actions.

I am able to love the show for its own merits, while also not condoning JW’s behavior. Stay Shiny!

@Ally I know how you feel. Still, I believe that it is possible to enjoy his shows (my favorite is Buffy) but dislike/critique his behavior.

I really enjoyed Firefly and I’m sad that it was canceled.

@sirena I am assuming you saw the follow-up film, Serenity, right? It is also a must-see for any Firefly fan.
