No Cowboy Hats for me Please

I've never sorted out how I feel about Western's, and while I'd prefer most things to it, I'm not sure if I dislike them as much as I'm neutral to them.  Firefly, strictly on a genre level, was a bit of a an enigma for me at first.  

Looking over it, I think I enjoyed the show as a whole, but when I stripped it apart, I didn't particularly care for the parts that were western, if not dislike them.  The sci-fi concept it rides on is fine and all, but too low-key for me, as I prefer more technology, science, and space with my stories (aliens too, but the first two attributes are the only necessary ones when it comes to my enjoyment, and anything else is a bonus).  I think the plots and actors sort of made up for it the first episode, which I guess rounds it's quality into a net plus sort of situation for me.  The morals in the show aren't all to subtle, in fact they some on pretty hard, but I don't hate that aspect of the show at all. While I'm not crazy about it, I can see how people might be. 

I don't have a lot more to go on.  Personally, I recently got back my motivation to do things I enjoy, like read, so I'll actually get to start reading sci-fi and other things completely unprompted!  It doesn't spud all too incredible, I know, but it's sort of a breakthrough for me, and I finally got to finish a book I started trying to read three years ago.   ALSO!  I'm very happy with the imminent failure of the Ghost in the Shell live-action movie!  It's been a pretty okay month!
