If I could go back in time and take control of the creation of Firefly, I'd have cast a few Asian-Americans and cut about 50% of Mal Being A Dick To Inara. Otherwise, I still like it fine.
(I'd also fix the logo because why are those characters back to front???)

I never did understand why if there is such a strong Chinese influence in Firefly's world did we never see one Asian in the show?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, actually, has anyone from the show ever addressed this? It's such an obvious thing

[(Anonymous)]

From my recollection, River and Simon were supposed to be Chinese and for some reason they were asked not to cast that way ?

[(Anonymous)]

aside from "nobody's asian in the movies" in that dr horrible thing?

Probably because Whedon thought it'd be neat to cherry pick from that culture but had zero interest in representation, like so many white creators do. They like the flavor of exoticism, but with white people.

I agree totally. I would've made one or two of the main characters Chinese, and I also would've cut back on Mal slut-shaming Inara (I get him being jealous, and I also get Mal is *supposed* to be flawed and the audience is intended to think he's being a dick. Still, though.)

Other than that, from what I remember, the show is really great. To each their own and all, but it's got a really nice sense of camaraderie and a fun overall vibe, and never gets too pretentious or exposition-heavy while still carrying entertaining plots. I liked that about it.
