Description

It was overlooked in its own time, never finding the audience it deserved, but Firefly has gone on to become a cult classic with the most dedicated on fanbases. And now that I've finally arrived to the party 20 years late, I wanted to share my thoughts on Joss Whedon's Firefly.

The silver lining in it being cancelled after one season...it'll never be ruined, it'll always be the work of art that it is.

'We Didn't Know How Good We Had It" could be the title of a very long book about pre-2014 entertainment.

"You deserved better then you got... and in the end, we're the ones that lost out" What an ending Mr. Drinker. Well done.

That depressed "go away now" at the end hit hard. But perfectly sums up many people's feelings about Firefly too. This show was made with love and you could feel it.

I was the boom operator on this show. It was a sad day when it was canceled and it deserved better. Thx for highlighting this special show. It was one of the good ones.

Never would've thought the Drinker could get me all misty-eyed, but he did this time. RIP Firefly.

Kaylee. What a beautiful character inside and out. Everybody I know who has seen the show loves how she was written and portrayed.

Out of Gas is the greatest episode of TV ever made, in any genre, in any era. I'll die on that hill.
