Firefly

My wife and I just finished watching the 14 episode DVD set for Firefly. I know I am a little behind, but why was this show taken off TV?

Joss Whedon is a genius, and probably the public at large wasn't ready for a show this innovative that blended seamlessly the Old West and sci-fi.

Of course, due to the fans outrage at their new favorite show being canceled, Firefly has become huge, and that leads us to the big screen debut of "Serenity". My wife and I are very excited for September 30th to roll around.

We were kinda bummed that it was over when we got to the last episode. It just leaves you wanting more. We had a vested interest in the characters, and River's story was just getting good. Great writing by all involved.
