Host Grant Barrett credited the series: Buffy with the first use of the phrase, "Not so much."

I, of course, remember it best from the flashback to the acquisition of Serenity in "Out of Gas" where Captain Reynolds admits to Zoe that the ship is not flyable now.

Here is a link to the podcast. It is discussed at the very start of the 'cast.

I love finding phrases that are both in Buffy and in Firefly...


"shiny" was in Buffy....

"I want to die surrounded by fat grandchildren" (Buffy) and "I wish you hundreds of fat children." (Firefly)

Riley: "Buffy, where is the bad, here? It just turns out that we're even more well-matched than we thought we were. I mean, you're a... fry cook. And so am I."
Buffy: "Yes, but you're an amateur... fry cook, and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25." (Buffy)

Hey, I've been in a firefight before....Well, I've been in a fire...Actually, I was fired. From a fry-cook opportunity. (Firefly)


Hehehehe... Sorry, I'm a Whedon nut.

There are more...

RILEY: He started it.
XANDER: He called me a bad name. I think it was bad. It might've been Latin. (Buffy 5x07 Family)

RIVER: Mal, bad. In the Latin. (Firefly 1x03 Trainjob)

--

WILLOW: See ... that's where you're a dummy. (Buffy 5x07)

RIVER: I didn't think you'd come for me.
SIMON: Well, you're a dummy. (Firefly 1x01-02 Serenity)

Hi Jeff, welcome to the forums.

Not trying to curb your enthusiasm or anything, but the topic of this thread seems to have nothing whatsoever to do with the Signal, and therefore is in the wrong forum. You're probably going to want to start similar discussions in the future in the "General Discussions" forum, leaving this one free for talking about a certain podcast.

Not a biggie. Great to have you here! Very Happy
