		Firefly's premise was a bit less problematic; it was set in a future world that had a number of parallels to the western United States just after the Civil War.

		Perhaps one of the most eagerly anticipated new genre series set to premiere on non-cable broadcast network television is Joss Whedon’s “Firefly.” Set approximately five hundred or so years in the future, “Firefly” at least in part refers to the type of vessel our protagonists fly around in.
		It is a “Firefly” class mid bulk carrier without weapons named “Serenity.” The crew is a mixed bag of frontier fugitives trying to make a living on the outskirts of known space a few years after an interstellar civil war crushed a separatist movement.
		When it is discovered that the goods they have been contracted to steal could cost the lives of everyone on that planet, our Captain must make a difficult decision that will undoubtedly complicate the lives of his crew as well as himself for some time to come.
