I just saw it on Hulu. I was not intrested in this idea at first, but this episode has sold me. It seems a lot darker than his other work in concept- his other works became dark, no argument, but this one starts dark. Not in Whedon's wheelhouse- no Whedonspeak, no youthful charachters, and altho we do get a waifish powerful woman as lead (Plus Amy Acker offering to give her a massage. I'll be in my bunk.) it dosen't play like any of his past works. I think that's a good thing tho. He's set up a series that is perfect for Fox- primary storyline O the week disconnected and energetic, and the slow burn storyline for the Deep Geek fans. And second pilot? This is just some stupid joke with Fox and Joss, isn't it?
(PS- Joss to Jane Espenson to Gilmore Girls, teh TV show that is the epicenter of Sci-fi.)
