Why I loved FIREFLY (the series)

Jan 31, 2011 18:04

I recently got the entire series Firefly on DVDs. I had never seen any of it before. I watched it all within about 10 days; sad to say, it's only 4 discs, 14 episodes. All I can say is, wow! Well, that, and can we find the Fox executive who killed the show and get him/her fired ( Read more... )

tv, science fiction

Yup, pretty much what John said.

once you join the Browncoats, there's no going back. and you'll start recognizing all those Serenity t-shirts the dudes at the quickie mart wear.

Yeah, and I finally know why out_totheblack chose that user name!

Take me out, to the black.
Tell them I'm not coming back.

It's the best show EVER!! There is a special hell for Fox executives.

Yeah, they can keep the Fox "news" folks company.

I loved the series too...

As for Zoe, she's absolutely gorgeous. I'd have been more impressed if they'd cast an ugly person in the role, but that's always my problem with TV and shouldn't be taken out on a brilliant program.

I don't mind that she's attractive, so long as she can carry off the role, which she does. Consider the old STAR TREK episode where Kirk and Spoke were on a planet where humans were forced into fighting to the death for the amusement of higher beings. The "woman warrior" in that looked like she was more afraid of breaking a nail than anything else.

Hey, breaking a nail can hurt!

For a long time after the show was canceled they had conventions and picketing. To this day (probably) there's a website for the fanatics among us. No, I'm not a member. But close ( ... )

oh man, when you watch the movie, and then you see where they were going with the show, it will make you cry you will be so mad that it didn't get to go on, it is all soooo good!ra

Re: random commenter karen_w_newton February 2 2011, 23:02:30 UTC

Don't tell me that! I ordered the movie and can't wait to watch it!

I think you will love it, personally I think it is even better than the show, which I loooove.
