This was a great series. It is well written, well acted and highly entertaining. ( )

Region 1 (NTSC) 675 mins., 4 disks, 14 episodes ( )

A truly excellent series that combines humour, heart and (reluctant) heroics in often surprising combinations. The all too quickly cancelled series is, in short, a space western about a permanently down-on-their-luck smuggler crew. But it's not what it is, but rather how memorably it is it, that is "Firefly"'s lasting genious. It sadly ends before it can have much of a plot arc to speak of, but it is rather astonishing how much character arc and development the various crew members still get in the half-season it had. I've watched hundreds to television shows, but I'm hard pressed to think of a single one where, once it ended, I this desperately wanted to spend more time with virtually every single character. ( )

This was good. The frustrated relationship between the doctor and the engineer was hilarious and Wash, the pilot, is hilarious solo.

Apparently, this show is essentially a remake of a 1970s British show which is virtually impossible to obtain. ( )

Space cowboys on the run from the law.

So much fun to watch. Of course, it doesn't have an ending, but I'm fine with that - it doesn't really need one.
