Firefly: Heart of Gold [Ep 13] ✦ Watchalong Reaction & Review
Added 2025-03-14 22:50:00 +0000 UTCHi everyone! Excuse the odd look for the thumbnail... 😂 I couldn't help but use it when I saw it. I can't believe there's only one episode left and then the movie! 😢 These 3 months have gone by a little too quickly, I guess. [Direct link here.]
Please enjoy!

Yeah it is an expectation spoiler, but since it's hard to avoid (because of syncing purposes), I just embrace it haha

2025-03-22 03:02:21 +0000 UTCFor the record, I hate "previously on" recaps. They recap what's relevant to the current episode, so its just a spoiler for what's happening in the episode. It's like "oh! They're showing Niska on the 'previously on' I wonder if he'll be showing up again in this episode..."

2025-03-22 01:37:34 +0000 UTC"Don't know these folks, don't much care to" "They're whores" "I'm in" 🤣 As another reactor put it, "Jayne is such a simple man" Having never seen the previously ons, I was shocked by how long it was before the episode started this time - can't imagine why anyone thought that much needed covering. Lots of Inara/Mal stuff here obviously, but it's interesting that Mal was willing to help without requiring payment - was that as a favour to Inara, or because the Heart of Gold were 'independents'? I suspect it was a bit of both. Also interesting to note how Inara insists that he be paid - Mal looks genuinely hurt by that, and Inara can't look at him whilst saying it. Plus, it foreshadows her choice to leave at the end.

2025-03-15 05:07:38 +0000 UTCYeah, I have to agree with you, this episode is abolutely about relationships. Wash and Zoe talking about children, Kaylee seeking validation since she doesn't feel any from Simon, the Inara/Mal/Nandi triangle.... Even something so simple and short as Jayne brushing her hair. I love how you noticed and called it out, I love how I felt the first time I saw this thinking "Well, Jayne's not getting anything from this interaction, but he's willing to give without expecting a reward... k... okay... wow, he has dimensions". Episode 8 is still my fave, but this is a hard tie with like 3 other eps for #2. Also, Rance Burgess, ever see Supernatural?

2025-03-15 02:45:02 +0000 UTCThe singer singing "Amazing Grace" was the lead singer of the group Splendid, who made, at least, a couple of appearances on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I had at least one album by them in the 90s.

2025-03-15 01:10:12 +0000 UTCGreat reaction. I could see it in your eyes where you thought Inara was going to take that conversation and I knew she was just going to crush you with the twist. The writing on this show was always top notch.
