I was living overseas when this series aired, and never heard of it until I was sorting through my brother's DVDs a few weeks ago. I saw this, and figured that since it was only 14 episodes it probably wasn't that good of a series, but decided to go ahead and check it out...after watching other stuff first. Dumb mistake. Had I known anything about it, it would have gone to the top of the list.
Firefly is a great show. A network gets a gem, then cancels it after just a few episodes. Honestly, Fox, what were you thinking when you cancelled this show?

Somehow I missed Firefly when it was aired on TV. When the movie Serenity came out I got a DVD copy and watched it. I must not have been reading the cover very carefully as I did not make a connection with the TV series Firefly.
While browsing the Amazon web site for DVDs I noticed the Firefly set that contained all of the TV episodes. The review intrigued me so I decided to order it and the Collector's Edition DVD.
One of the reviewers said it was best to watch the TV series before watching the movie so I decided to do just that. Although I had seen the movie in the past, it had been a fairly long time so I started the TV series; I didn't know what was in store for me.
If one thinks about it, the premise is reasonable; the frontiers of space could have parallels with the frontiers of the old West. The farther you got away from civilization the more rugged life could become; especially after a major war which had divided civilization.
To a substantial degree it helps to check your brain at the door and just relax and accept the story line. The characters are sufficiently developed to generate some feelings of concern for them as the stories progress. The stories themselves are in one way stereotypical, and yet in another way very original; I guess you would have to watch them to see what I mean.
I'm pleased with them and look forward to seeing them again; a lot is going on and it's hard to absorb all of the action on a first viewing.
If you're a sci-fi fan and have not seen the series and the movie, you should go ahead and treat yourself.

Firefly makes for great entertainment and escapism because the storylines are extremely well written, fresh, thought-provoking and humorous, and the actors do a terrific job. There is not one actor in the bunch with a less than stellar performance.
If you're on the fence about purchasing this series then rent or borrow it. You will probably buy it anyway because you'll want to see it over again. Been there, done that.

I am a Star Trek TNG, Babylon, DS9, Voyager, BSG diehard. Firefly is amazing. It's taken me this long to see the series and I wish that I had seen it back when it was actually relevant to try and save the series. Even though a lot of questions are left unanswered, the series is well worth watching especially the 'making of' clips at the end.
Sometimes you watch a series or movie and you can see that the actors are having fun and enjoying working with each other and in the scene. Firefly is one of those shows and is absolutely awesome to watch.

I bought this series only because it had so many wonderful reviews. I figured I'd hide it until Christmas for my 13 yr old. But when it arrived I was like a child at Christmas myself and I couldnt wait. I love westerns and I love sci-fi. Never knew I could have both. Awesome stories, fabulous characters that I feel like I know and a beautiful ship! Why someone cancelled this show I'll never understand!
