You can't take the sky from me

I am rewatching the perfection that is Firefly and am watching "Our Mrs. Reynolds." I am so full of giddy glee. Every time I just forget how perfect that show was, how funny and how sharp. Every time I get PISSED OFF that it got cancelled. I adored the movie, but the lack of BO means it is extremely unlikely there would be more, and I am selfish.

Mmmm, firefly. I also can't watch without getting pissed at its cancellation. :(

[dangermousie]

Yeah. It's like this combo of "it's awesome" and "I hate stupid Fox"

[ameya]

Oh Firefly, how much I love thee. Seriously, that show made me so happy. Just watching the DVD's was competely gleeful. And I got my brother into it too, so I've got a nest of Firefly-love right here at home. Alas.

[dangermousie]

Yeah, I got my Husband into it and a lot of fun was had by all :)

Firefly remains the only Joss Whedon show I've been really into. It aired on such a dumb timeslot in Finland, though (Wednesdays at either 10:30 PM or at times up to 11:45 PM, like WTF?). I have no idea if the film came out in theatres or not. I guess one could say I'm not into it enough to care whether the film came out, but I would like to see it so I'm hoping for a DVD release so I can go rent it or something.

I definitely loved all the canon pairings (Mal/Inara otp otp, Zoe/Wash too cute!) and was partial to reading some fanfiction surrounding not-so-canon couples like Jayne/River which I didn't was possible at all but hey, that's the beauty of fic. And the action in Firefly drew me in like no other show.

[dangermousie]

Oh, I loved all the canon pairings too. Mal/Inara are a huge OTP and I think Simon/Kaylee were adorable and Zoe/Wash one of the rare good protrayals of married couple. And the movie was AMAZING.

Its kind of sad that thsi series had the potential; to be another BSG, but the networks in their ultimate wisdom totally screwed it up.

I do think if it was on a smaller network, it would have lasted much longer.

[weissman]

Or if they had started it where it belonged, on the Scifi Channel. I think it gained a lot of fans when teh scifi channel started broadcasting re-runs of the series

[dangermousie]

Exactly. They really should have started it on scifi.

Firefly is so awesome- someone needs to revive this past Serenity (movie).

[dangermousie]

Yeah. Definitely.
