Cheap & Save on Firefly: The Complete Series [Blu-ray]
Firefly: The Complete Series dvds tv episodes (Nathan Fillion, Gina Torres and Alan Tudyk) As the 2005 theatrical unharness of Serenity created clear, Firefly was a science fiction concept that deserved a second likelihood. Devoted fans (or "Browncoats") knew it all along, and with this well-packaged DVD set, people who missed the show's original broadcasts will see what they missed. Creator Joss Whedon's bold science-fiction Western (Whedon's third series once Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel) was canceled once solely eleven of those fourteen episodes had aired on the Fox network, however history has proven that its demise was woefully premature. Whedon's generic hybrid got off to a shaky begin when network executives demanded an action-packed one-hour premiere ("The Train Job"); in hindsight the meant two-hour pilot (also titled "Serenity," and oddly enough, the ultimate episode aired) provides a much better introduction to the show's concept and splendid ensemble solid. Obsessive fans will dialogue the quirky logic of mixing spaceships with direct parallels to frontier America (it's five hundred years within the future, and embattled humankind has expanded into the galaxy, where undeveloped "outer rim" planets struggle with the equivalent of previous West accommodations), however Whedon and his gifted co-writers and administrators build it work, a minimum of well enough to fashion a reputable context from the incongruous culture-clashing of past, present, and future technologies, in conjunction with a polyglot language (the results of 2 dominant superpowers) that mixes English with an abundance of Chinese slang.
