Jan 25 Episode 203: Jewel Staite

Jewel Staite is the actress behind a veritable parade of dynamic characters, including the volatile and feisty Abigail on Family Law, the kind-hearted mechanic Kaylee on Firefly and Serenity, the brilliant and insecure Dr. Jennifer Keller on Stargate Atlantis, and a pair of sadistic magical twins on The Order. She’s also an entrepreneur, a mother, a wife, a friend, a fan favourite, and really funny. Her Twitter followers know that she doesn’t suffer trolls: she’ll call out the insanity of the unrealistic beauty expectations placed on women, and the absurdity that people expect her to look exactly the same as she did when she was on Firefly, a series that premiered in September 2002. In this expansive and riveting episode of the YVR Screen Scene Podcast, Jewel Staite reflects on the characters she’s played and loved over the course of her career, as well as self-care during COVID, navigating social media, what Nathan Fillion taught her about being number one on the call sheet, and what goes on in the Firefly group chat.
