I don’t want to go on a rant here, but think I have to.

WHY THE HELL DID THE TV SHOW FIREFLY NOT BECOME THE NEXT BIG THING?

I’m probably one of the last people to join the band wagon, but I have to say… That has to have been the best show EVER.

My husband, Joe, had seen the show when it was originally aired, but I had only seen bits and pieces of a few episodes. I was reluctant, to say the least, about a sci-fi show that acted like a western, but once Joe told me to think about it like Star Wars without the aliens and lightsabers, I accepted the idea.

When the movie Serenity came out, Joe and I went to watch it and I really liked it. Unfortunately, I didn’t understand a lot of the movie because I hadn’t seen the TV show. So, since he just got it, we sat down recently and watched the first and only season of Firefly.

God, that was the greatest show. I feel royally jipped that there isn’t any more to watch.

At least now I can go back and watch Serenity again and this time I’ll actually understand everything. And actually care when people die. I gotta say, knowing what I do about what happens in the movie, it makes me a little sad that I’ve already seen it. But that wont stop me from watching it again. Any way I can get more I will gladly accept. I even recently bought a graphic novel about Firefly. And I’m not even a comic book lover.
