firefly....
Edited on Thu Apr-17-08 05:10 PM by mike_c
OK, understand that I don't own a television and haven't watched regular teevee programing in decades. My daughter told me a couple of years ago that I should check out Firefly but without a television, I wasn't even particularly interested.

Just found all fourteen episodes posted on hulu.com. Wow, I'm impressed! I've watched about half of them so far. The western theme is getting a bit old, but still, what a marvelous cast and the writing is usually solid. I wish there were more episodes!

3. All I could think was...


Which wasn't one of Eastwood's westerns
:evilgrin:


Firefly was a great series. I also took a few episodes to warm up to it, but it really grows on ya, corny western theme and all.

4. DVD set for $25 at Target.
Best price I've seen. My friend bought it for $65 8 months ago. I rubbed mine in her face!:P

6. River Tam (Serenity) Tribute - What's in Your Head

Check out Summer Glau in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. She's great!

9. I just watched Serenity this weekend.
If you want more episodes, then you'll have to make do with the movie. The nice thing is, you get to see where Joss was heading with the River character and the Reavers.
