It's so much better than SG-1, it's sad. Origonal series premis, origonal plot mechanics, regular unexpected decisions by the charactors. There is nothing textbook about this series. Just prepare yourself for the fact that the series ends in the middle of the first season, then rent Serenity to have most of the lose ends tied up. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

Too bad it didn't last longer. It could have become a Star Gate, Star Trek kind of show.
I'd give it four stars. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

If you haven't seen this, you are missing out on great entertainment. An exciting and exhilarating ride through the wonders of a different time and space with a view into the struggles of humanity that can be related to today. All the characters quickly develop into friends you can relate to and want to spend more time with. The only bad thing about the series is the fact that it ends... However, you will find some solace in knowing that the movie made from this series (Serenity) is waiting for you to enjoy. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Firefly was a truly WONDERFUL series that blended the classic sci-fi elements, a touch of old-west feel, and rib-splitting humor. I rank this series in the same mane as the Star Trek and Babylon 5 series, with Firefly being hot on the heels of B5 as my all-time favorite.
As for the Fox corporation... well, let's just say they've proven time and time again that they have no class or judgement with Sci-Fi. Their track record speaks for itself: Star Wars, Space: Above & Beyond, and Firefly (and I'm sure there's others). If you are a writer, and you have the next "Uber-Series / Story" sitting on your shelf, I IMPLORE you to stay away from Fox at all costs! You owe it to your story, and to the plethora of fans that are going to fall in love with your idea to NOT allow Fox to send it flying to a beautiful start, just to pull it's wings off after one season.

Read More I have to say I was somewhat skeptical about watching this, as I had started it with a guy I was seeing and am not fond of people trying to force their likes on you in the hopes that you have something in common. After the first disc I was so hooked I could not stand waiting to see an episode until we hung out so rented the series! Great humor, although predictable story line. I was upset when Deadwood was taken off the air and left its followers hanging. Firefly went through the same life span. Very sad that this series had such a shirt life.
