FIREFLY CAST REVIEW...Again! by Elwoodmom

My vote goes for Jayne, cause I've been an Adam Baldwin fan since My Bodyguard came out, in the early 80's.

My other vote goes to Zoe, cause I so wish I could be as tough as her!

Thanks for doing this again. I missed it the first time around:

I could listen to Ron Glass talk all day long - just like his voice a lot. So I'm voting for Book.

On the female side... I could LOOK at Morena all day long (and then some). So that vote goes to Inara.

I would have to say Jayne is my favorite male character.

He is a raw manly man whom I can I identfy with. Unlimited potential for growth, simple, and uncomplicated.

Once you get past his hard exterior, he has a good heart but doesn't know it. I saw beginnings of personal growth for Jayne in the series. Namely, the guilt he felt for trying to turn Simon and River in to the Alliance.

Kaylee is my favorite female character. She is sweet and unpretentious. She wants lots of attention and i would be willing to give it to her.

Okay, this is tough because I like each of them for very different reasons. But, if I had to choose one male, I'd pick Simon. He is so kind, loyal, gentle, and a little bit socially insecure. There's just a great guy under that prim and proper exterior. He just needs to loosen up a bit. Did I mention he looks great with his shirt off?

A woman... I'd go with Kaylee. Sweet, funny, and she would probably make a great friend.

Thanks for the votes, everyone!

I see we have a few Bunkmates (Jayne), Fillionaires, Simonites and a Bookend! Poor Wash-My-Back, hasn't received a vote yet! The ladies don't need nicknames, cause they're too beautiful! No votes for River yet either, maybe we're all intimidated that she'll kill us with her brain!

Mal is my favourite male character, and my favourite character overall. A great captain and a real hero. Plus a complex and interesting character. It is rare for a series lead to be my favourite character, I usually like one of the co-stars better.
My favourite female character is River. She is so sweet and funny, and when she's suffering she breaks my heart. Summer Glau is a great actress, doing well with a demanding role.

For all of you who weren't around for the poll in April, Malicious is a bit...uh...despondent because Mal lost to Jayne by 2 votes in the tie-breaker. And the bit about Neroli, see, I allowed her to vote for a fella named Gunhand. He was on FFF.net like the rest of us, and had a charming personality.

Malicious, refresh my memory...you're voting for Mal, right?

And how about we let Neroli vote for the men, but it must be one of the actors, okay? Now let's see a smile on that cute little tough and sexy face! No sulking, dear!

Ooh it's tough between River and Zoe for me. River is fascinating to watch, I like seeing where her mind is going to take us next. But Zoe is as tough as any of the guys, she's undeniably cool. But I'm a hardcore Zoe/Wash ship right now, so that does give Zoe her advantage. Ok...

FEMALE: ZOE
MALE: MAL (Aww poor Wash...but he didn't get enough screentime for me to choose him)

Male: Mal. Seeing the first show that aired, I felt an immediate kinship to him, almost brotherly.(Our names are similar too.)
I like the way his character values freedom, and his sense of humor ("Kaylee's dead"), and the undercurrent of emotion he carries regarding the past.

Female: Zoe. She is the greatest! She's on the spot supporting the Captain. I identify with her a lot.

Oh, I so don't like choosing favorites. I love all the characters but I'll play (also didn't get to do this the last time)

Favorite male character: Simon - I like him, he’s not as wussy as his type of character might have been on some other show. Safe also ended up being my I'm-in-love-with-series-realization episode so I vote for Simon.

Favorite female character: Inara – she’s intriguing and we don’t know enough about her.

Jayne is my favorite male and Zoe is my favorite female because of their strengh. They are stand offish but you can tell that they love deeply. Zoe with her loyalty to the Cap'n and passion for Wash and Jayne with him sending his mom money.

My vote for female goes to Kaylee, for many reasons. As an actess, I think Jewel is wonderful, and I relate to the character very much. Her knowledge about specific things, her tomboyish nature, etc. Also, she's just plain adorable!

For male, my vote goes to Jayne. I'm a big Adam Baldwin fan, and adore his portrayal of Jayne in Firefly. He also did an amazing job in the role of Hamilton on Angel *g* But as for Jayne, I love his tough-guy attitude, subdued by a side of goofiness :) That and his love for that fluffy hat his mother made him, lmao! And he's a mans man: loves guns, women, and fightin'! All which make for an entertaining character.

Ok, my vote goes to Mal for the male vote. Simply cause I find his character so gorram interesting, and admiting, Nathan Fillion does have a certain roguish charm. ~sighs~

For female,...hmmm, I shall go with Inara since I usually go with River in these types of things. Mainly, I find her character intriguing, mostly her unexplored past and knowing there's more to that cool facade of hers.

Suffice to say, I find certain characteristics from both characters, that I can relate to and maybe that plays part in it. ~shrugs~

Oh, and to...Neroli...I have a feeling on who's gonna win the male vote. ~snicker~
