Buy This Item Firefly - The Complete Series by 20th Century Fox  Available from Amazon  $24.99  on 8-27-2008     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. Reader Reviews Firefly is yet another wondrous show created by the genius that is Joss Whedon and it's really a pity that it was canceled so early in its infancy. This program takes place in outer space during the year 2517 at a time when only two superpowers, The United States and China, have survived over the years. The plot focuses on a Firefly-class spaceship called Serenity and its crew, which consists of Captain Malcolm "Mal" Reynolds, Zoe Washburne, an old war buddy of Mal's, Hoban "Wash" Washburne, the ship's pilot and Zoe's husband, Inara Serra, a renowned Companion, Jayne Cobb, Kaylee Frye, the ship's mechanic, Shepherd Book, a pastor with a murky past, Dr. Simon Tam, and his sister, the mysterious River Tam. In order to survive they must do jobs, often illegal ones, for people all while hiding from a government agency looking to capture a certain passenger on board. Each action-packed heist will leave you begging for more. Not only are the episodes comedic and exciting, but the writing is top-notch and the characters are interesting and well-developed. Firefly was truly nothing short of brilliant. I own the complete series on DVD and have watched the episodes so often that I could probably quote every line back to you but it seems no matter how many times I see them I'm still on the edge of my seat. The DVD set comes with some interesting bonus features and every episode is organized in the order the show was originally supposed to be run. :]
