Just watched the first Ep of "Firefly" last night

[Taverner]

It's OK....not the greatest thing since sliced beer that everyone seems to rave about...

Granted its kind of a cool premise, but its no Twin Peaks

1. Yeah, a friend of mine spent ages trying to get me to watch Firefly.

When I finally got around to it, I was a little unerwhelmed.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

2. Stay with it a while

There are only 14 episodes- it gets better as you get to know the crew.

Or you can go straight to the movie "Serenity"- it's good all by itself.

[Dr. Strange]

3. The train robbery episode?

Yeah, watch a couple more. Fox kinda messed up the show with their interference.

[DarkTirade]

9. ... kinda?

:P

4. Hold judgment until you've watched

War Stories

Out of Gas

[Deja Q]

5. Agreed.

Especially "Out of Gas"

6. Fallon did a hellva job in that episode. n/t

7. Save Serenity

Until after you've seen the series. Though it was made to stand alone, you're already familiar with the characters by then.

8. I thought it was clever, if a bit slick for sci-fi...

interesting premise, though.

10. I think what bugs the fans about how it got *&%ed the most

isn't that it was sooooo great, although we do love it... it's that it had so much POTENTIAL. And it got cut off before it had a chance to take off.
