Yeah, I'll have to agree. It's a bit obscure, but it's still very awesome. And yeah, but that's just Fox for you. If there's ever a good show on that network, there's a very good chance it'll be canceled within a season or two. (There's only a handful of shows that were awesome and got to stay on compared to the numbers of equally awesome ones that were dropped. O_<)
Wash is incredible too, just for the quotes. (Oh, the plastic dinosaurs.) I'm still a Mal fangirl, though, with Jayne as my second favorite and Wash in a close third.
