According to his bio on IMDB he is distantly related...this is how IMDB puts it...
"Adam is distantly related to the Baldwin brothers Alec Baldwin, Daniel Baldwin, William Baldwin and Stephen Baldwin, who are from Long Island, New York (Adam is from the Chicago area). They share common Baldwin ancestry going back to the 1600s in England."

Adam Baldwin was also on another good show called "Chuck" and he got to be a little bit more funny in this one!π

If you like people named River, you should react to Doctor Who. ;) Seriously, you'd get many thousands more YT subscribers, any quite a few new Patreon subs!

Shan. Adam Baldwin's character is named Jayne (the guy you don't like).

Notice how the guy at the bar mispronounced the word 'auspicious'? He said 'aspicious'.
Auspicious- conducive to success.

Had a thought. If you ever memorize the theme song, maybe you could sing along with it.

Yes Shan. You saw the name Adam Baldwin. No he's not one of the Baldwin brothers.
First saw him in the movie 'My Bodyguard' decades ago.

This is actually not that bad as a Pilot, though "Serenity" would have been better.

I have a friend who is a merchant marine and he always calls a ship a boat. Sort of interchangeable, except you're cooler if you call it a boat.

On your comments about River being a badass: It's never been confirmed by Joss, but there are fan theories that River is the slayer in 2517.

In nautical terms the difference between a boat and a ship is vague and not fully explainable by anyone (eg one goes on a ship but in a boat).So all submarines are boats and they also have to carry their own atmosphere with them which is exactly what you get with a spaceship...darn it.

Oh my Lord, your face at the engine kick......... Mal is a good man, but he does draw the line at being good to those who threaten him and his crew. I am really enjoying your reactions to this, one of my very favorite shows.

I liked it because in most shows you see this guy and hear his speech and think, "Oh. so this is going to be one of the main antagonists that will keep popping up." And then Mal kicks him into the engine. There always seems to be a scene or 2 like this each show that let's you know it's not the same old formula.

When River said Mal, bad in the Latin. Shes being literal, Mal is the latin word for bad, like in MALfunction.

Interesting you question why they keep calling it a boat (presumably as its a sea term), which raises the point, why assume 'ship' which is equally a sea term. As it is, ships in the earth sense tend to be registered official vessels, like in the navy, and boats, tend to be smaller and things that are independently owned, so they might be going with that.

I do like that with this episode they do a better job explaining the power that a registered Companion has, which is why she's useful for Mal to have on his ship.

I gather she didn't notice the whole "two by two, hands of blue" thing River kept saying, as there was no reaction at the end.

Adam Baldwin is not related to the Baldwin bros.

This was the first ep to air as Fox unhappy with the Pilot ep because they thought it moved too slow forced Joss to come up with this alternative.
Mal kicking Crow into the engine was the point where I was hooked. Up until that point it seemed like an average scifi story.

The guy you don't like is Jayne Cobb. The actor who plays him is named Adam Baldwin, but he's not related to the famous Baldwin family.

"...Darn." Might be my favorite Mal moment of this show.
