Wonderful. Just wonderful. The character development in this hilarious yet also deep and impactful series is amzaing, and it is such a shame it was cut short, as the series was set up to easily run on for five or six more solid seasons. TheWonderful. Just wonderful. The character development in this hilarious yet also deep and impactful series is amzaing, and it is such a shame it was cut short, as the series was set up to easily run on for five or six more solid seasons. The only bad thing I can think of is the incompleted plot, but that is only because they canceled the show due to advertising and marketing stuff. Since then, the show has gained a cult following of practically everyone who has seen the show. 11/10 (extra point for the great concept that could have been expanded and made even better (if that's even possible))… Expand

Underrated Series that was cut short way too soon. If you never watched Firefly,then you're missing out on good and sadly short television show. Firefly is certainly worth your time and feel free to watch the film Serenity afterwards. AnUnderrated Series that was cut short way too soon.

This is the best sci-fi series ever! The acting is excellent. On-screen chemistry is clearly excellent and what's great is that the actors have remained friends ever since, often appearing in each others shows.

The firefly fan community has remained steadfast on wanting the series returned - that is how much this show is lived and how much it has brought people together. Love it!… Expand

Space western. Lot deeper than you'd expect. Character developement is quite uncanny. Quite funny as well, although on ocassion it will leave you in tears. All in all adventures of a crew you will not only like to see, but would love to join.

I loved this show and still do. There was so much more that could have been done with this storyline and the characters themselves. To me the movie Serenity was a cheap ending and not well done. I wanted to know more about Shepard and hisI loved this show and still do. There was so much more that could have been done with this storyline and the characters themselves. To me the movie Serenity was a cheap ending and not well done. I wanted to know more about Shepard and his back story who was he??!! Mel was a great Character and there was so much potential there for his character to grow and develop more. Along with Zoe, Wash, and Jane!! If there was any show I wish would come back to TV it would be Firefly.. so much potential!!!!… Expand

Best space western that has or ever will be made. Somehow this was canceled but Batwoman will get a season 2. It's ridiculous.

Essentially a western set in space, Firefly follows the crew of the spaceship Serenity as they attempt to make a living (and stay alive) having found themselves on the losing side of a civil war.

I may be biased to all things Josh Whedon but if ever a show deserved to be treated better by TV execs it was Firefly. You may only get 14 episodes, and the spin off movie 'Serenity' that wrapped up a number of loose ends, but you will not find a better sci-fi show in the history of television.… Expand

Yes, I've just said it in 2020, more than 17 years past it's over. Only this fact tells everything about "Firefly".… Expand

I have 75 words to type so all I can say is, how can this show be canceled yet crap shows like Modern Family/Grays Anatomy/Criminal Minds be allowed to continue. TV sucks now.

One of the best SyFy shows out there, have re-watched it many times, very enjoyable, so upset it was cancelled by "accountants"with no imagination.
