DVD Reviews of Firefly - The Complete Series
DVD Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a Star Trek TNG, Babylon, DS9, Voyager, BSG diehard. Firefly is amazing. It's taken me this long to see the series and I wish that I had seen it back when it was actually relevant to try and save the series. Even though a lot of questions are left unanswered, the series is well worth watching especially the 'making of' clips at the end.
Sometimes you watch a series or movie and you can see that the actors are having fun and enjoying working with each other and in the scene. Firefly is one of those shows and is absolutely awesome to watch.
DVD Review: A "must-see" series that you will love!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this series only because it had so many wonderful reviews. I figured I'd hide it until Christmas for my 13 yr old. But when it arrived I was like a child at Christmas myself and I couldnt wait. I love westerns and I love sci-fi. Never knew I could have both. Awesome stories, fabulous characters that I feel like I know and a beautiful ship! Why someone cancelled this show I'll never understand! DVD Review: Too bad it ended too soon
Summary: 4 Stars
After hearing so much about this series I decided to try it on hulu.com. After the third episode I was hooked, and wanted to enjoy the rest on my couch instead of at my desk.
Each episode is well thought out, the characters are interesting and the whole cast did an excellent job. While there are spaceships, there are no aliens. It's about people having to decide how to get by with, or in spite of others. I've finished the series and am looking forward to renting the movie Serenity.
Watch each episode in order and savor them, you don't see good TV like this anymore.
DVD Review: Nothing is better than Firefly!
Summary: 5 Stars
Firefly is THE best TV series ever. The characters are wonderful, the ship is realistic, the world is fantastic. Whoever cancelled this show after only one season should be fired!DVD Review: Great show
Summary: 5 Stars
It's one of the fantastic TV shows with interesting characters, well-written screen play, charming and real fun (for me) story line and great sense of humor. I recommend watching a movie Serenity after finished the series. Well, I like all of them even more! Worth watching. Worth buying!
Description of Firefly - The Complete Series
As the 2005 theatrical release of Serenity made clear, Firefly was a science fiction concept that deserved a second chance. Devoted fans (or "Browncoats") knew it all along, and with this well-packaged DVD set, those who missed the show's original broadcasts can see what they missed. Creator Joss Whedon's ambitious science-fiction Western (Whedon's third series after Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel) was canceled after only 11 of these 14 episodes had aired on the Fox network, but history has proven that its demise was woefully premature. Whedon's generic hybrid got off to a shaky start when network executives demanded an action-packed one-hour premiere ("The Train Job"); in hindsight the intended two-hour pilot (also titled "Serenity," and oddly enough, the final episode aired) provides a better introduction to the show's concept and splendid ensemble cast. Obsessive fans can debate the quirky logic of combining spaceships with direct parallels to frontier America (it's 500 years in the future, and embattled humankind has expanded into the galaxy, where undeveloped "outer rim" planets struggle with the equivalent of Old West accommodations), but Whedon and his gifted co-writers and directors make it work, at least well enough to fashion a credible context from the incongruous culture-clashing of past, present, and future technologies, along with a polyglot language (the result of two dominant superpowers) that combines English with an abundance of Chinese slang.What makes it work is Whedon's delightfully well-chosen cast and their nine well-developed characters--a typically Whedon-esque extended family--each providing a unique perspective on their adventures aboard Serenity, the junky but beloved "Firefly-class" starship they call home. As a veteran of the disadvantaged Independent faction's war against the all-powerful planetary Alliance (think of it as Underdogs vs. Overlords), Serenity captain Malcolm Reynolds (Nathan Fillion) leads his compact crew on a quest for survival. They're renegades with an amoral agenda, taking any job that pays well, but Firefly's complex tapestry of right and wrong (and peace vs. violence) is richer and deeper than it first appears. Tantalizing clues about Blue Sun (an insidious mega-corporation with a mysteriously evil agenda), its ties to the Alliance, and the traumatizing use of Serenity's resident stowaway (Summer Glau) as a guinea pig in the development of advanced warfare were clear indications Firefly was heading for exciting revelations that were precluded by the series' cancellation. Fortunately, the big-screen Serenity (which can be enjoyed independently of the series) ensured that Whedon's wild extraterrestrial west had not seen its final sunset. Its very existence confirms that these 14 episodes (and enjoyable bonus features) will endure as irrefutable proof Fox made a glaring mistake in canceling the series. --Jeff Shannon

Five hundred years in the future there's a whole new frontier, and the crew of the Firefly-class spaceship Serenity is eager to stake a claim on the action. They'll take any job, legal or illegal, to keep fuel in the tanks and food on the table. But things get a bit more complicated after they take on a passenger wanted by the new totalitarian Alliance regime. Now they find themselves on the run, desperate to steer clear of Alliance ships and the flesh-eating Reavers who live on the fringes of space.
