I just finished watching Firefly - :(

So I borrowed Firefly and Serenity from a friend. I just finished watching Firefly and now I'm so seriously ticked that I missed this when it aired and that it is canceled. :(

I still have Serenity left to watch, probably tomorrow, but wow, I haven't really watched sci-fi since Star Trek: Voyager and this was actually something that really grabbed me.

Anyway, just wanted to vent and share.

    Firefly is alright.

    I like Adam Baldwin better in Chuck, though.

    also Arc you should probably go watch Serenity

    I assure you it's as fun-loving and carefree as the comedic episodes of the show without any traumatic events whatsoever

    i liked firefly a lot, even if joss whedon does not know how to write a believable character.

    he's really good at writing snappy dialogue, but it isn't attached to anyone in particular

    Yeah, I never saw Firefly when it originally aired either. It's such a great little show though. I could watch Nathan Fillion and Adam Baldwin be gruff and do violence all day.

    well, he's like quentin tarantino in that sometimes he's too clever for his own good

    also i am 100% sure that the title song is the reason firefly got axed

    I liked this show quite a bit. I think it's mostly because I have a thing for westerns. Also I have a man-crush on Nathan Fillion.
