I insist that you watch Firefly. That is all.
Do eeeet, you know you want to. All of the cool kids are doing it.
Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me!
This is an awesome show. Only problem is, once Howl has watched it, the brown coat will be the most powerful armour in EfU.
...is that really a problem, come to think of it?

Worst intro ever, dear god.
Gorram purplebelly trolls...
As your Apprentice Gelato Devourer I must post in agreement.

The introduction is absolutely awful, yes. The show is decent.
DO IT

Jayne, the hero of Canton.
Are you telling me he hasn't seen it? I don't even watch TV (yeah, I'm that guy) and I've seen it and loved every gorram second of it. It is not overhyped.
Isn't it true that it was never properly finished though, and so is consequently very frustrating to watch?
Serenity is an excellent capstone for the series (and a great movie as a standalone).
Yes Howland, that is exactly the problem and..i still feel cheated when i started to watch.
Consider it a 10-12 hr long movie.
Just watch it and be in love... and then hate Fox for taking it off the air for the rest of your life.
If a call is made to burn down a certain TV station that shall go unnamed... I will stand at the fore.
Watch the show Howland, it will change your gorram life.

That's Gilligan's Island I am afraid.
Start a petition for him to watch imo
The ending might be better not finished any how with Whedon. Buffy ended not the best in my opinion.
Firefly is shit.

Don't talk shit bOm.
Firefly is good, better than deadwood atleast.
Don't be mean.
Quote from: Damien;238623Firefly is good, better than deadwood atleast.
lol'd.
Firefly's vaguely entertaining, and one of the better Sci Fi series around.
But it explores nothing interesting, treads no new ground, makes no statements. At least with Whedon's other series' he was addressing female empowerment and the general theme of high school (literally) as hell.
Deadwood shits on it SO HARD. Jesus.
Watch the latest season of Treme, or all of Breaking Bad, or even Carnivale. If you hanker for more Sci-fi, give BSG a bash.
deadwood is trash and firefly is best
I will put it on my list.
Don't listen to these creepy social role-players, Big H
I started to watch it, and I just didn't see the allure. My roommate absolutely swears by it. Of course, he also loves all of the Stargate series, which, imo, are absolute crap (loved the movie though). I can't stand all these half-ass sci-fi shows now. The production is enough to make me gag, the acting is subpar, and I could write better in my sleep.
If you didn't like Firefly then you were obviously watching it wrong.
TBH, I never finished the pilot episode.
Never actually watched this either.
This is a fan show, definitely. It has some fun dialog and some entertaining stories. It's got a neat setting and a very old school low budget feel to it. The story has potential, and the movie wraps up the series without much issue.
That said there is a lot you can harp on about the series. Whether that be more stationary of of camera, to the weaponry, to some of the plots. But if you take it for what is it, a light-hearted story, then it's pretty cool in my humble opinion.
It will not astound people like a mega-million dollar Hollywood movie, that's certain. But then--It doesn't aim to.
i never really watched the stuff but it still sucks
btw stargate rocks, teal'c 4 lyfe
9 lives nailed it.

I've watched and enjoyed Firefly. It is one of my favorite TV shows.
Deadwood, however, is abnormal. It is not TV. Let's just say that simply talking about it has left me in doubt as to whether I should disappear for another month to re-watch all of it.
The Wire > All TV
Peep Show > All TV comedy.

Why is this show even still being talked about? It was canceled like 5 years ago and only ran for two or so years. Let it die....

(Also, it was mediocre)
Ninelives is mediocre at best.

Here Here!
Insulting Firefly is like insulting the religion of thousands of nerds. Insensitive jerks!
Firefly didn't finish a season. Arrested Development only finished 2. MTV is still making The Real World and Jersey Shore. And AFAIK they're still making Mad TV (or hell, even if they're not, it still existed. ugh.) Clearly, TV producers and audiences are trustworthy in recognizing the merits of fine television.
Firefly is shit.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer was TERRIBLE.
(Am I doing this right?)
I sense WHEDONRAEG incoming
I like Mad TV. =]
