    For sure--she's had that very distinctive voice and I remember thinking that the first time I saw her on screen, which I think was in "24" where she played a terrorist.

    Examples:
    * Cotyar Ghazi, bodyguard for Chrisjen. Love the way they develop their friendship, and the banter between him, Chrisjen, and Bobbie.
    * Bobbie Draper, the Martian gunnery sergeant.
    Depending on how long they continue with the series, Bobbie will be much more than a secondary character.

    Associate/relation of said terry, or maybe it was her son in the show- can't remember. The baddie that season of 24 was good ol' Habib Marwan. To this literal day, I can't help saying that guys name in her voice...

    Just read the churn, great backstory on Amos. It’s a quick read at only 60 pages.

    I am forcing myself not to watch because my friends want to see it together. And with the Witcher comes out next week, that should be some good viewing til Christmas arrives.

    I watched 3 episodes last night, kind of hoping they release the 4K soon....

    So far off to a fantastic start, and Amos DOES NOT disappoint! He has some great one liners already.... “what was she wearing”...”want me to shoot SPOILER”...”I’m free right now”...”does this mean we aren’t F’ing anymore”..

    My wife and I just discovered this about a week ago (after completing Jack Ryan). We are a few eps into season 2. Fantastic series! Very well written, very well acted. What surprises me most is that my wife is hooked. This kind of show is usually not her thing.

    Firefly still gets top rating from me, but this is close. My one complaint - the dialogue is hard to follow (at least for us). Couple of times we’ve had to put CC on just to understand what was said. Might be our poor sound system, might be our older ears.

    I'm always at a loss how anyone considered that show high quality SF. It was mildly enjoyable but not a one episode ever stuck out as great. Favorite episode was the lesbian one of course... I watched it because it was SF and the ladies were cute and such, but never got how that one ever gets listed as the favorite SF show for anyone. That one is a mystery to me, but I guess that's what makes horse racing as they say.

    Step out this thread before you get jumped.....

    IT SHOULD GO WITHOUT SAYING but....

    The show wasn’t Sci Fi. It was a Western set in a different era. Two veteran Space Confederates, an amoral mercenary, a naive mechanic, a space whore, a Preacher with a mysterious past, a tenderfoot doctor and his troubled baby sister sticking it to The Man trying to find the last free frontiers of space far from the Federal troops.

    Serenity was sorta like the Wild Bunch.
