anotheranonGeekcake. GeekCAAAAAAAKE!
I must question the inclusion of Nathan Fillion, however. Hot, yes. Geeks like him, yes, but AFAIK there's no evidence that he, or his character is geeky (well, at least, Malcolm Reynolds isn't. Perhaps he's played a geek elsewhere).
I think the other actors fit, at least in terms of characters - I gather that 3 play doctors and Duchovny clearly represents the UFO/conspiracy geeks.
But I'm not sure where Fillion fits. Kaylee was way geekier. So were Wash and Simon.

Date: 2007-06-10 04:26 pm (UTC)I have heard it suggested that Fillion isn't really aiming for "Hollywood stardom" but more cult status, the new Bruce Campbell or some such. No idea how true that is or where I heard/read it, so take with major grain of salt, but it would be awfully nerdy!
