I always enjoy how, despite the fact that the Greek language (as indeed every language) has evolved over time, many words remain unchanged over 2500+ years. For example Chronos (??????), Hypnos (?????), Echo (???) are the modern Greek words for time, sleep and... echo.
Also, Chronos (God of time) should not be confused with Kronos (lat. Cronus or Saturn, the father of Zeus).
I watched all the Firefly episodes for the first time recently and it amazes me how stupid someone could have been to cancel this brilliantly scripted show. Such chemistry amongst cast members is something you very rarely see. Total and utter shame.
Saying and doing the same things every day on this primitive ride even by 80s standards. Faking enthusiasm. Pretending to care about the enjoyment of the people your carrying. I couldn't do this job.
I have to agree though, it could have been a lot funnier. Kind of a missed opportunity here.
You've ruined it for me now...
