Firefly DVD Set Released

Posted by michael on from the consume dept.

Richard M. Nixon writes "As previously reported the DVD set for Joss Whedon's ill fated Western/Space Opera is now available. The DVD has all 11 episodes that aired, 3 episodes that didn't air, commentary on 7 episodes, and lots of bonus features including Joss singing the Firefly theme. It would make a nice Christmas gift for any Whedon fan who has not already run out and bought it. If DVD Sales are good enough, could we see a second season?"

    It was ill-fated for a good reason. It sucked. There, I just saved about 80% of you from having to post to this article.

      I'm with you. I usually like just about anything SciFi, FireFly Sucked. But I do miss Farscape

    ...the DVD set for Josh Whedon's ill fated Wester-Space-Opera...

    Ill fated? If it were more than a juvenile Saturday morning style (think Far Out Spacenuts) show, then maybe ill-fated would fit.

    Given what it was, I would say "...the DVD set for Josh Whedon's doomed Wester-Space-Opera..."

    It's amazing that we keep getting "shows" like Firefly and the new "Battlestar Galactica", but no one can be bothered to do a good science fiction series.

    I mean, we haven't had one since Babylon 5.

    I'm not even necessarily picky. I can watch and episode of Andromeda now an then. As sad as it is to say, Andromeda is heads above Firefly and Andromeda isn't great shakes.

  5. How is this marked a TROLL when he's spewing FACTS by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Is someone trying to argue that Firefly wasn't doomed? Cripes people, the show was freaking horrible and it got smacked right off the air.
