Agreed - though I'd say Talyn is the one who IS a stock character, since he's basically Psycho Emo Teen à la Angel!Connor/Weeds!Silas/NipTuck!Matt/etc. Of course, he subverts it somewhat by being a huge friggin' spaceship with FTL drive. Even Connor can't top that one.
And yes, D'Argo may be Proud Warrior Race Guy when he's on the clock, but... The guy builds guitars in his spare time, ffs. Not to mention that Chiana, the Grey Skinned Space Nympho, is pretty much the only one of the bunch (and that would be including the PRIEST) who isn't a complete selfish cynic now and then...
...and that's all vast oversimplifications too. *loves show*
