Totally understand that. I’m kinda partial to Mal personally.

This character profile format reminds me of a dear friend and reader of mine, who wrote similar articles about each of IMS Starshatter's crew.

Perhaps my most favorite episode with her is the entire ballroom scene with Kaylee in that dress, shining with engineering knowledge :D The episode was Shindig, if I remember.

I love Kaylee! God bless you for reminding me. I think it was "Out of Gas" where Mal first met and hired Kaylee. Shocking scene for sweet little Kaylee. There was one scene where she gave this little smile pining for Simon. I can't remember the details.

So, funny story, I actually saw the film first and had no idea about the show. The entire time I was watching it I kept thinking “am I missing something?” Came to find out I was indeed missing something, lol.

It was a whole different experience watching it a second time after I binged the show.

Wow! It was exactly the same for me! Back in the old days when pre-woke Netflix used to mail out DVDs I was browsing and saw the movie Serenity. I have always loved sci-fi so I rented it even though it looked B grade and I never heard of any of the actors (except maybe Ron Glass from Barney Miller). I watched the movie and it was love at first sight. I was googling around on the movie and discovered the original series. It was one of the happiest days of my life! Binge watched the entire thing. I was heart broken that it was canceled. I've watched it over and over through the years. Mrs. Reynolds is still my fav episode.
