Finished Firefly. I didn't want it to end. I still have so many questions.
Also caved and watched the first ep of Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp. It was better than I expected, very much the same as the original movie without just taking everything from there. Some continuing jokes were already tiring, like the overzealous applause, but on the whole it was faithful without getting a brown nose, and very obviously written by the same people. Some of the actors are kind of unnerving playing 16-17 year olds now that they're filthy old men, though. Especially Coop. The realisation than Ben was played by a little baby Bradley Cooper was pretty awesome though, because I didn't recognise him in the original.
I don't know if I want to watch more, but I probably will at 2am when I can't sleep and feel like laughing without engaging my brain.
The return of the tacky, overused clay-pot shattering effect for that one scene was pretty great though.
