Does anybody NOT like Firefly/Serenity? - colburn0004 - 12-19-2008 ccosborne3 Wrote:Loved the movie but just can't seem to get into the TV series. I felt the same way. I loved the movie but for some reason i just didn't like the show. I hate how fox treats their shows. They give a show a single season then if it does ok the next season they'll shuffle it around a few times and eventually cancel it. I'm still amazed prison break hasn't been canceled but I doubt it has too much longer.(first season was great second season watchable newest season........just rediculous.)

From what I understand, FOX skipped the two-hour pilot and showed the second episode first. Then, when they showed some of the other episodes, they too were broadcast out of order. FOX made a real mess of it. Ken V. Does anybody NOT like Firefly/Serenity? - colburn0004 - 12-19-2008 Hmmm....I didn't know that. May be interesting to check out. I watched it on tv. I almost always give fox and FX shows a chance at first.

If I had watched this TV programme without the 2hr pilot and with the rest of the episodes all shuffled around, I doubt I would have liked it at all. But why would FOX green light the project and give it money to be made, only to scupper it before it went on air? If the FOX execs didnt like the tone of the programme, surely they just wouldnt have backed it in the first place? Sounds just like good old fashioned bumbling incompetence to me.

It's a really good series. Ken V.

I just can't see itCuz they mangled their Chinese Seriously, though, the swearing in Chinese cracked me up. I did try to watch the series but maybe just wasn't in a sci-fi mood at the time. My sister had borrowed it from a friend and I sat in on a few eps. Maybe it's because I saw fragmented pieces instead of the whole thing from the beginning that I didn't get into it. Does anybody NOT like Firefly/Serenity? - Jebur27 - 09-10-2011 I love Firefly. I did not see it until a couple of years ago, bought it and have watched it several times. Every chance I get, I show it to someone new, and they love it, too. I do remember seeing promos for it on tv.

Then again I don't like Star Trek either so.....really not my type of show. Does anybody NOT like Firefly/Serenity? - Lisa - 09-13-2011 I thought Firefly and Serenity were okay. They're not bad by any means, but I think after all the hype by my friends telling me 10,000 times how awesome the show was, my expectations were way too high. I actually got bored by the last couple episodes and never finished watching. |
