Somewhere in the multiverse is a planet earth where a certain show about "Nothing" (Seinfeld) got canceled after one season, but somehow multiple seasons of FireFly got made. I suggest we seek out that particular planet earth and make a trade.

A “Crazy Ivan” is a term from 1980’s submarine warfare. Noisy engines meant submarines had zero sensors looking aft (toward the tail of the boat), and enemy boats used to stalk them by hiding behind them in their blind spot. So Russian sub commanders would periodically make abrupt 180 degree or 360 degree turns so they could point their bow sensors (on the nose of the boat) at the place that was previously in their blind spot. This kept enemy vessels from following too closely, lest they be picked up by the bow sensors. Since this was a Russian tactic, and Russians were referred to in slang as Ivan, these abrupt, unpredictable maneuvers were called Crazy Ivans. Mal uses it here to mean a super fast, 180 degree turn in flying.

When they say Inara is making an honest living, the context is that Companions are more like Geishas than the modern Western view of sex work. She's highly educated and can move in the highest social circles in society. She offers a service, provides that service, and gets paid. Unlike the crew who engage in salvage, smuggling, and other criminal activities. Happy to see you reacting to this, looking forwards to more!

Actually closer to the classical idea of the Greek hetaera/hetaira (probably via the character of Tamara Sperling from Heinlein's Time Enough for Love I suspect). Especially since geisha are purely entertainers and not courtesans (oiran) or prostitutes (yūjo). The common Greek prostitutes (that simply provided sexual services for money) were known as pornai. Although that said, the classical view of these individuals, who were entitled to choose their own lovers, attend symposiums (after dinner meetings where business was discussed), and were quite rich in their own right, was heavily influenced by the very patriarchal Romans, who considered them to be courtesans. In actuality they were probably just women who were rich enough in their own right to do as they will. And by rich, I mean RICH. One of the more famous hetaira, Phyrne of Thespis, offered to personally fund the rebuilding of the walls of walls of Thebes out of her own pocket. Before being unsuccessfully put on trial for being an uppity woman (and therefore destructive of the social order as defined by the gods [asebeia]) by a spurned former lover.

@@reverance_pavane Thank you, I wasn't actually sure of the correct term from Greek. I'll add that to my lexicon. Ultimately, though, the point of my comment was to inform Nia Maki why Inara is treated the way she is quickly, so I pulled Geisha out of the air as a commonly known (but poorly understood) term for non-Western sex work.

For story world context: Think of the "outer planets" as the territories after the Civil War. Towns barely hanging on, hardscrabble farms one crop failure from starvation. Outlaws running rampant. The "western" feel is because it's easier and cheaper to ship draft animal embryos to the outer planets than tech machines. There's no money to support those tech machines, and no infrastructure to build their own. For the Firefly crew, the only easy day was yesterday (because they survived that one). Every day is another battle to survive and stay flying. Tomorrow is to far away to worry about.

Couple things about the show: a Companion I guess is a version of futuristic Geisha. The reason why they speak Mandarin and English is because those are the cultures that they say survive to the stars however Mandarin is seen as low born talk so the show uses this trope as swearing(I'm told it is actual swears that made it past the censors). Also the reason for the mix of high tech and low tech is by design, this is a smuggler one breakdown away from doom storyline not Starfleet, meals are usually tasteless protein bars(explains Kaylee and the strawberry) but they are a dysfunctional family to each other but also closed ranks loyal to each other. As the show progress you will see more of that family dynamic but a word of warning box of tissues will be needed for the some episodes and a case of tissues for the movie if you watch(you need to watch it)

Excellent choice to react to. Looking forward to your 'Firefly' Journey. This Sci Fi genre is called a 'Space Western'. There is no such thing as a bad Firefly episode. They range from good to great to masterpiece. Sadly, we only have a little more than half a season. New FOX Studio Execs hired in clean slated the projects of the old FOX Execs for their own shows - including 'Firefly'. These execs pulled many dirty tricks to get 'Firefly' canceled. Public support for the series managed to push out a 'Serenity' Movie years later to finish the main story. 'That Man's Psychotic!' - Mal also had an ulterior motive. He was observing Simon's response. Simon showed genuine concern to try to help Kaylee. That concern is why Simon was given the offer to become part of the crew.

It was being broadcast in 4:3, so cropping hid that little issue. They needed Wash to sit back to be in frame, so he faked it. Now that we see the whole 16:9 width, it does tend to stick out. Another thing you may not have noticed - when Wash was driving the mule off Serenity near the beginning, you can see an arm dragging the mule forward.

Whedon shot the scenes simtaneously in both aspects, usually blocked to force the best shots chosen from the widescreen. That was a rarity where the camera failed on the closeup, and they used the widescreen simply to avoid another day of filming, even though the control yoke had been removed for the closeup.

Jewel Staite REALLY sold the longing for fresh food when Kaylee tasted the strawberry. Early on at signings and conventions, she had to let the fans know not to bring good-intentioned homemade strawberry dishes, because she hates strawberries. She felt badly about it, but she was getting more goods than she could share.

Watching people discover this show for the first time never gets old. He's kind of an acquired taste, but Jayne Cobb gives everyone else someone to play off of and the show wouldn't be half as good without him keeping everyone on their toes. My personal favorite character in the show, although Shepherd Book, portrayed by always-classy Ron Glass (RIP), gives him a run for his money. Definitely an underrated and often overlooked character, portrayed to perfection by Adam Baldwin.

So happy you're reacting to this, but wonder why you've changed the format to a small screen in the corner when previously you did full screen movie with a circular cut-out of your face which was easier to watch?

I like your reactions and looking forward to the next one. The tsink and toilets hat fold up are common on US submarines to save space. i spent three and a half years assigned to one. BTW the pronunciation is sub mareener if you ever meet one. Never call a peron a sub mariner. It's an insult.

Welcome to the ride of a lifetime! This is truly one of the greatest shows ever and by the time you've finished you'll think of Serenity and her crew as family.

Nathan Fillion had two rules for his agent. 1. No musical nor Shakespeare roles. 2. If Joss Whedon calls with a role, you don't give him a chance to describe it, you say "YES!" automatically. That is why after Firefly, Nathan was in "Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog" (singing in a musical) and "Much Ado About Nothing" (Joss Whedon's modern retelling of Shakespeare).

Excellent reaction! You picked up on a lot of things that most people don't this early. I also liked how much you laughed at one of my favorite lines: When Simon asks (about Jayne), "What do you pay him for?" and Mal answers, "Public relations." The funniest thing about this is that there's a (twisted) sense in which it's true.

God, this show just gets better with time. Joss Weadon can freakin' write. You can cancel the man but not the work. Or quality. The cast is top tier. Only thirteen hour episodes, but if you look at them cinematically, we got a trilogy of films that are all masterpieces. Thank you for giving us a chance to see this great show through new eyes again.

You're going to love this show - and the movie that comes after. And the crew will grow on you, including Jayne Cobb. I really enjoy your reaction to this, and I'm looking forward to seeing you go through the rest of the series. I'm subscribing so I can keep watching.

Firefly?!? Instant sub! From the comments I see you've watched it all already, yay! Another Browncoat joins the crew. :) Looking forward to watching your journey. I'm sure you've already heard how the network screwed it up, but if not, I'll leave that for others to describe.

"Ivan" is a Crazy Ivan, a maneuver Soviet subs used to do to evade pursuit. they'd suddenly do a 180 so their SONAR sensors in the nose were facing back then turn them on full blast, temporarily blinding whoever was behind them so they could have time to turn in a new direction & get away without being seen.
