| WOW!!! I know, I'm like 7 years late here. But I just watched the show & movie, and I really really liked it. Any fans?

| I love Firefly. Sadly it was yet another victim of FOX's brilliant TV strategy, which has struck again with the Terminator show unfortunately.

Tell you what show I loved and wished they'd continued - Angel, especially after they got back on track with season 5 and stopped Angel playing second fiddle to his 'gang'.

| Great show. Great movie. Nathan Fillian is excellent and the guy I'm hoping wins the Hal Jordan role in any upcoming Green Lantern live action flick.

Keep watchin' those DVD's Led, they're very, very good.I never watched "Buffy" or "Angel", but the dude who directed those shows was responsible for "Firefly" and "Serenity" as well. Wow, I never thought of it, but he'd be a perfect Hal Jordan. That would be so cool!

| Krunchy, Angel (and to a degree BUffy) was worth watching if only for; ![]() Actually, it was a really good show - dropped a bit in the middle seasons when it seemed his team either got 'powers' or suddenly seemed able to kick demon ass without him, which kind of ruined the point but it got back on track for the final season. It was the adult version of buffy though, with much darker themes and plotlines (and violence) but with the same tongue in cheek humour. Where else would you get a seemingly gay demon host a karaoke bar? Buffy was fun the first few series when it was just for fun with the odd bit of love angst thrown in, but after they replaced Angel with a jock for her boyfriend and tried to be serious with things like the very long and boring 'mother has cancer' plotline I stopped watching. It was fun when it knew it was trashy. PS - google Charisma Carpenter without filters, you'll thank me for it, she's done a load of playboy since the show.

| I usually hate sci-fi shows, but this one had a great sense of humor and adventure, so I ended up watching it on DVD after the fact with my sci-fi geek wife. Cool show. The movie wasn't AS good, but still enjoyable.
