I bought the Firefly DVD set a few months ago. I never saw the series (living in Europe), but I heard good things and Joss Whedon is the man. I finally sat down and watched the DVDs. Wow. Firefly was awesome. An amazing show. Great characters. Great action. Great dialogue. The show had it all. The world was oddly believable and engrossing, despite being, well, odd. I loved it. It really hit its stride and it was only the first season. Fox totally screwed it. Not airing the pilot. The time slot. Everything. Un-freakin'-believable. Firefly was one of the best TV programs I have seen in years. Couldn't reccommend it enough.
I guess we're just stuck with more reality-TV crap. Great.
