Wow - a few weeks ago I'm casually cruising through Netflix' Instant Play feature just get some ideas as to what to watch, and I come across this show called "Firefly". Never heard of it, but it sounds interesting, so I watch the pilot epi. And not 5 minutes into this show I AM HOOKED!
I don't remember the last time this has happened to me. I mean, even the theme music is awesome!
Space Cowboys! Literally! With Serenity looking like a steel horse! LOVE IT!
Every thing about this show is just perfect! The story, THE CREW, the bantering, the brawlings!
I'm sitting on my couch, loving every minute of every episode and wondering where this show has been for the past 5 years of my life!
And then I get to episode 14 and it just stops! And I can't believe they just....quit producing this spectacular show. Who was the moron who pulled the plug? There were sooo many loose ends, so many questions left open. ARGH!!
I sooo wanted (and still want to know) who Shepherd Brooks really was. There were so many clues that he wasn't just a shepherd, and the movie didn't clear anything up either! If anything, it raised more questions: Why was he suddenly off the ship and on this colony? And let's not even go towards the end of the movie.....:(
Don't get me wrong, I LOVED the movie! The action was breathtaking and downright INSANE at the end. Sad, too, of course, but excellent nevertheless.
And I was so happy to finally see Simon and Kaylee kiss at the end. Sooo overdue! (The doctor's such a virgin ;) )
This show and the movie is definitely on my "Watch Again" list.
And Nathan Fillion - aaaah, what a man, what an actor, what a smile. I'm putting all the "Castle" episodes into my Netflix queue right now!
Ah - just what was missing in my life. A new fanfiction obsession....
