Btw, you're getting into the habit of needling me with questions that seem designed to imply my thinking makes no sense. Sometimes I ignore it. But it's getting annoying. The above question was entirely unnecessary.

How the fuck was Book a comic relief character?

I think you might want to lay off the crack, because you seem really paranoid, as if everyone is out to get you. It wasn't an unecessary question, it was completely relevant. It is interesting to hear you say Serenity was an insult to Firefly, when you seemed to have zero fondness for Firefly to begin with.

I guess it would be like me saying The Animatrix was an insult to the Matrix trilogy, when in reality I don't care one bit for anything with Matrix in the title. I'd rather leave it to people who care about the series to decide which is better than what, because to me it is all equally unworthy of watching.

Ah, and I think he thought you were talking about Wash, not Book, when you said they killed off the best character. Wash was obviously comic relief. I was annoyed they killed off Book without every explaining his mysterious background that was hinted at several times during the duration of the show. That was a loose end they could have tied off, though it wouldn't have been satifactory, as it was obviously meant to be an underlying plotline over the course of the series.
