	firefly
		Firefly was all about life on the frontier of space and the freedom of having a ship to call your own and only yourself to answer to.
		No aliens are included in the series as humans can be alien enough when left on their own and away from most justice and organized systems.
		One of the best series to come along in a while with interesting characters and great plots, it naturally didn’t last long.

	"Firefly" (2002/I) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The series is anti-corporate, anti-government and, while it takes the stand that some things are worth fighting for, it is largely anti-war.
		Firefly creates a universe that almost totally opposes that of (that bastion of television sci-fi) Star Trek: its Federation-like central power (the Alliance) is interpreted as being oppressive and dystopic.
		It is a shame the series didn't have a more hospitable environment in which to grow and become all it could have been.

		"Firefly" is one of those canceled television series that deserved a better fate.
		Probably the most curious decision Fox made about "Firefly" was not to air the very expensive pilot -- which set up all the relationships among the crew of spaceship Serenity -- until after the show had been axed.
		The DVD set restores order to "Firefly" by offering the episodes in the order they were meant to air, starting with the original pilot and adding three installments that were never telecast.

	IGN: Firefly: The Complete Series Review
		Firefly is set 500 years in the future, and like too many sci fi shows, it's a future that I'm glad I won't live to see.
		The series was mostly about the misadventures of the crew, the jobs they took and the encouters they had during those gigs.
		Firefly was filmed in widescreen and presented on TV, and of course on these discs, in 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen.

	Serenity
		In addition to creating and executive producing the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel (as well as writing and directing multiple episodes of each), he has brought his trademark wit and compassion as a writer to films such as Speed, Alien: Resurrection and Toy Story, for which he received an Academy Award® nomination.
		Whedon conceived of the television series Firefly after reading Michael Shaara’s Civil War novel, “The Killer Angels.” The appeal of post-war survivors scraping by on the outskirts of society—in a science-fiction context—struck a chord with Whedon.
		The series garnered acclaim from critics and a burgeoning fanbase, but Firefly nonetheless lasted only 11 episodes before leaving the air, a casualty of its frequently pre-empted time slot and the show’s own hard-to-pigeon hole tone and content.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Serenity
		At the same time, he addresses other ideas from the series in an off-hand manner which lets fan know he remembers the issues, but doesn't serve to alienate those who haven't seen the television episodes.
		Given that many of the actors in the film had fourteen television episodes to find their characters, it isn't surprising that the nine costars all have a good handle on their roles.
		Furthermore, the film is darker than the television show, even the darkest episodes, although humor is never too far from the surface.

	Survival Arts: Firefly: I can't recommend it highly enough
		Firefly: The Complete Series is also available for rental from Netflix.com.
		"Firefly", however, is apparently the series that Whedon really wanted to do all along, an impression made stronger by his having actually said so (you'll have to see it in the "Extras" section of DVD #4).
		It was amusing that a laser pistol shows up only twice in the series: as the antique "Lassiter", the object of a heist in one episode ("Trash"), and as a battery-draining liability in the "Heart of Gold" episode.

		The dialogue and interplay between characters is central to the plot of the program, resulting in a story that is alternately serious and humorous.
		Firefly was promoted as an action-comedy rather than the more serious character study it was intended to be; episodes were occasionally preempted for sporting events, and the episodes were not aired in the order that the creators had intended.
		A box set of the first season's episodes, including those unaired in the USA, were released on region 1 DVD on December 9, 2003; and on region 2 DVD on 2004-04-19.

		That report stated on February 17 that the working title for the FIREFLY movie was SERENITY (the name of the crew's vessel) and that the project's first meeting took place in the second week of February.
		Series creator Joss Whedon will direct the movie from his script, set approximately six months after the events seen in the last FIREFLY episode.
		Still, the bigger news for longtime FIREFLY fans that's not contained in the release is the absence of two principal cast members from the TV show: Ron Glass (Reverend Book) and Alan Tudyk (Wash, the ship's pilot).

	Amazon.co.uk: Firefly - The Complete Series [2003]: DVD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Much praised and much missed after its premature cancellation, Firefly is the first SF TV series to be conceived by Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy and cocreator of Angel.
		Firefly is also about adult emotional relationships, for example Kaylee's crush on Simon, the happy marriage of Mal's second officer Zoe and the pilot Wash, the disastrous erotic stalemate between Mal and the courtesan Inara.
		Fortunately, the spin-off movie Serenity is planned; and in the meantime, what there is of Firefly is a show to marvel at, both for its tight writing and ensemble acting, and the idiocy of the executives who cancelled it.

		Such is the legacy of the Browncoats, also known as lovers of a short-lived 2002 Fox television series Firefly.
		Whedon could be considered a "geek guru" -- after all, some of these Firefly fans dress up like characters from the show and are known to launch into impromptu renditions of the theme song -- and he doesn't flinch when the idea is suggested to him.
		And though Whedon is already thinking about a sequel, or possibly revisiting some new version of the television series ("you can't stop the brain," he says), for now he's just waiting and hoping Serenity will appeal to a bigger audience than those trusty Browncoats this weekend.

	Bureau 42 \| Firefly Review - The Complete Series
		Any change in the behaviour of the actors in the course of the series is a result of character growth and development.
		The Firefly DVDs need to be seen MOST OF ALL by people that have never seen a single episode....as well as by people that saw only a few of the FOX scambled ones and gave up because they couldn't follow what was going on.
		All I'm saying is that Firefly scripts were written in SUCH a tight and focussed manner that they're brilliant for all the layers on layers that are within them.

	Firefly < Serenity // Centripetal Notion
		Serenity opened in theaters the 30th of September, and for a lot of us who are familiar with the Firefly television series, this continuation has been a long time coming.
		I combed through my copy of the series and found some key moments I thought were worthy material for a little evangelism, and after seeing first hand what an impact this made on my friend’s experience, I thought I’d share it with everyone else.
		He isn’t making any money off of this, this video isn’t taking away from sales of Firefly or Serenity (quite the opposite actually), the amount of material from each scene is rather miniscule compared to the whole, and the purpose of this is to promote Firefly and Serenity.
