Biggest ever benefit of joining up with Netflix again? All the BBC series/miniseries I could ever want. Eat your heart out, BBCAmerica. (I just added mounds of DW, Ballykissangel (squeee!), North and South, Upstairs/Downstairs, Bleak House, etc. etc. etc. Also, Northern Exposure, because even though I taped most of them...extras. Mmmm, extras.)
Yay!
Yay!

you can imagine my horror when I got my assignment and it included "a child--preferably theirs."
Yes. Ack.
And Mal/Inara would not work in any universe. I so hated that moment in "Heart of Gold"(?) where Inara has a big, fall-down-on-the-floor crying jag over Mal's tryst with the other companion. Gaaaaaaah. No. Also, while the actors look like they have fun together, there's just no chemistry whatsoever.
I never found a ship I liked on Firefly. Well, Wash and Zoe were cute, but that was more of a "oh, they're married, how strange a different for a sci-fi show where usually everyone is improbably single" kind of thing. However, there's some good genfic out there, so it's all good. :)
