FIREFLY EPISODES 7 & 8 | FIRST TIME WATCHING | REACTION

I do not just agree. I fully understand a leftist douche wrote and championed this, but as a conservative, and someone that has actually served our country for over a decade, I have absolutely no qualms about honoring our enemies, EVEN if they where Democratic Party. If you don't like slave owners, and want to tear down their statues, do something that would actually matter and destroy the left every time they say something absolutely retarded. Leave them no ground to run to. Until then, here is your white hood.

While Jaynestown may not have been your fav, the look on your face when they started singing the Jayne song is easily one of my favorite moments of all your reactions. Just an absolute delight.

[@AJCham]

I think the reason I enjoy your reactions so much is that you engage with films the way I wish I could, with full suspension of disbelief. You allow yourself to really believe that Mal might not fix the ship, that Frodo may not make it to Mordor, or maybe Sarah won't escape the Terminator. I like to think I can get very immersed and invested in a story, but you take it to another level.

Cassie is like the reaction channel version of Kaylee with her Naturally Adorable Reactions.

[@warspaniel]

I would also add that, unlike a number of the other people who do reaction videos, Cassie doesn't talk *constantly* and doesn't try to do a technical analysis of the movie or show. Some of the other "reactors" I've tried to watch seem to never shut up and actually WATCH the movie or show they're supposed to be reacting to.

The new Captain fixed it and as they were flying off, Mal, who was caught by the Alliance, looked up to watch her disappear into the distance. The Alliance officer arresting him asked, "What are you smiling at?" Mal: "Never thought I'd see her fly again."

The shuttles were not expected to reach anywhere, only to spread out for a better chance of being found. If Mal had left Serenity, she would be open salvage if someone found her with no one on-board. By staying behind, if either shuttle found help, or if someone found Serenity, there was the possibility of saving the ship, if not for the Captain, then for the crew.

"There's just people like me" .. goddamn a real moment for Jayne. That look in his eye goes to show how good Adam Baldwin is as an actor.

It saddens me to know that Firefly videos dont get views that movie reviews do, but its great that you are enjoying the series, and it shows because these are one of your best videos

"There she is, out there in the black." Yup, she's a brown coat.

Out Of Gas is probably my favorite episode of television ever. So glad you're doing this show and enjoying it. Can't wait for the next.

[@CarrotFlowers421]

"Good guy to good guy" you sweet summer child. I think I watch you simply because your heart is so pure.

[@jasonrd316]

I felt the same way you do about Janestown when I first watched it, but as I rewatched a few times it started to grow on me more. So glad you're doing Firefly! This show holds a special place in the hearts of those that get through them all, as I'm sure you can see.

[@dunringill1747]

With firefly - The more we analyze an episode, the better it gets. There is so very much to say about Jaynestown.

[@itdano]

Is Firefly actually unpopular? I watch every reaction I can find to this show.

[@blinkybill2198]

The network didn't care about it and so it didn't get the time slot or promotion it deserved.

[@memphistim2001]

It's kind of like Shawshank in that it hugely underappreciated when it came out but gets more popular with each passing year.

[@itdano]

I meant unpopular as Cassie said. On KZbin. She said it gets the least views. That's surprising to me. I know all about the network and timeslot issues and how it didn't develop a real fan base until it was off the air.

[@michaelw8262]

@@itdano I think the fans have made their own Jayne Cobb, Hero of Canton-type legend out of Firefly's cancellation: that it was a mega-hit waiting to happen, and the evil executives decided to try to lose money by producing episodes and then making sure nobody could watch them. The intensity of the fan base makes it seem bigger than it really is.

[@heinleinreader]

I have yet to see a reaction show where the person didn't become a Browncoat convert. This is from an original Browncoat.

[@TheRealRedAce]

One of the things I like about it is the different way of talking. Language idioms change over time and its good that this is shown here.

[@The_Mashupman]

Having seen it I don't even know how many times, over all these years. Out Of Gas has always and will always make me emotional.

[@shuggiemcg1]

I just love your reactions to Firefly! Its tragic there was only one season and one film! So many people would watch this show if more seasons were made!

[@kampfkeks6619]

Out of gas makes the best use of the 10th Main character that no one thinks about. Serenity herself is a huge part of what makes this show feel so heartfelt

[@Tampahop]

This is my favorite episode. It gives you amazing backstory (I really liked Jane's bit) and shows you how much like family they are. The way it was told with the the flashbacks to two separate timelines was genius and kept the suspense up until the very end. When you're finished with Firefly and Serenity, you could check out Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles with Summer Glau and Lena Headey (Cersei from GoT) or try Dollhouse, another Joss Whedon show with Summer Glau and Eliza Dushku. It also has another favorite of mine, Dichen Lachman, but you can also see her in another amazing sci-fi show, Altered Carbon.

[@wemustdissent]

Love this episode. Has two plots that parallel perfectly both about stories that factually are not true but that people choose to tell themselves and hold onto that provide them with a basis for faith that helps them to go on through incredible hardships. Plus the Jane song is hilarious.

[@james9609]

Jayne's song was the reaction I was waiting for. Priceless!

[@markbond7314]

Thank you for seeing the quality in this beloved show that was well before it's time 🙂

[@spasjt]

"This is another dimension!" That's exactly how we all felt first time!😆😂🤣

[@sitrepproductionsatlanta8538]

Jaynestown is a great episode and I have so much fun watching your reactions to Firefly. It reminds me of when I watched it for the first time.

[@Scoobydcs]

shes going through EXACTLY the same process! starts out meh before you watch it. 1st couple of episodes draw you in then boom youre invested! and the mourning afterwards is a genuine feeling!!!!

[@Jedidaddyo]

See I told you early Jayne would show his colors and loyalties. Cassie, you're quite the Kaylee in your reactions. I love how invested you've become so quickly. It's sad that the show only got the one season, but at least there's the movie too. This cast was just magic along with the writing. I think this series will stand the test of time and be a classic for years to come.
