So do firefly fans.I like how it feels like a space western.
First I've heard it. What did she do?Is Disney still thinking of firing Gina Carano? Would kill the series for me if they did.

Violate one of The Unwritten Rules: Don't Get Involved With The Internet.First I've heard it. What did she do?
Oh OK. I thought it was gonna be for gaining that weight. Wouldn't have surprised me.Violate one of The Unwritten Rules: Don't Get Involved With The Internet.
She expressed conservative views on her personal Twitter account. Now the cancel-culture liberals want her fired. In case you think I'm a QAnon Trump supporter, I'm not (I voted for Biden), nor do I agree with everything Gina tweets on her personal account, but this "fire everyone who doesn't think exactly like I do" culture of ours is out of control and needs to be reigned in.First I've heard it.

The age of "wrong think" "word salad" and "made up gibberish"She expressed conservative views on her personal Twitter account. Now the cancel-culture liberals want her fired.

Yet again we meet at the same place in thoughts and opinions.She expressed conservative views on her personal Twitter account. Now the cancel-culture liberals want her fired.

The real world doesn't care about anybody.I doubt that was ever on the table.
The real world doesn't really care about twitter nontroversy .
I too have opinions, not all of them gel with the bleating masses. Am I too a "socially problematic individual"?snip
I've been finding myself thinking about The Mandalorian a lot as I've been watching this season of The Expanse. Disney's episodes may be short, but most of them pack a serious punch and tell a lot of story in the 30+ minutes, whereas I feel like I've spent over 30+ minutes watching closeups of Naomi gasping for breath in The Expanse, to the point where I wanted to fast-forward the show. What started off as a good pace and gripping story in The Expanse turned into a slog and real letdown of a season finale, so much that I've almost lost interest in the show. The Mandalorian, on the other hand, really delivered IMO. I'm sad by this, because I find the world of The Expanse to be more compelling than even Star Wars - one is science fiction (with a good emphasis on science), the other is science fantasy. But the people producing The Mandalorian are top-notch, whereas The Expanse feels like it has been bitten by the Amazon "focus on some stupid detail for 10 minutes in the name of artistic expression" curse.Just started watching season 2 and will read this thread later........

I'm not looking to be dragged into a prolonged debate on this (and we probably aren't that much at odds anyway), but on a related note (below spoiler means SPOILER):Are you in a prominent, high visibility, well compensated, position where your personal views are highly public and could cause complications for your employer?
Carano's opinions gel with the bleating masses just fine, but probably not with the image Disney wants to project. They are in the position of being perceived to tacitly support her views by retaining her. She hasn't actually done anything, or been credibly accused of doing anything, so they can probably get away with ignoring it, but every time she posts something that doesn't jive with the party line, that's a liability for them. If she gets too controversial, they won't keep her around.
