Firefly: The Complete Series [Blu-ray]

I watched this series when it first was broadcast on television, and since I enjoyed it I bought this set. After watching it, I did not realize the episodes were broadcast out of order! It's a western set in outer space, but no aliens. Extremely well cast, and I highly recommend it.

must have in my collection Five hundred years in the future, a renegade crew aboard a small spacecraft tries to survive as they travel the unknown parts of the galaxy and evade warring factions as well as authority agents out to get them.

I loved the series as a perfect blend of sci-fi and western. Well written, great action and the understated comedy all contribute to a series that should have had more than one season. That goodness for the wrap-up of Serenity.

I already had the complete series on blu-ray, but I couldn't resist the packaging on this edition. The faux leather is perfect for the feel of the show and looks great on my blu-ray shelf, and the extras (character cards, map) are good quality and nice to have. My only real complaint is the lack of any new video content. Even the menus are the same as what was on my old edition. I would have liked to see an update and maybe the inclusion of some new behind-the-scenes stuff. Even throwing in Serenity or the documentary, Done the Impossible would have been a nice touch, even if it increased the price. Either way, though, it's one of the best shows to ever get prematurely canceled, and if you don't already have it on blu-ray, even if you've never seen it, I can't recommend this set enough. The show itself is easily 5 stars, and the only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is that lack of any new content. Even a new menu would have been nice. So if you already own this on blu-ray, it's up to you whether the new packaging is worth it. It was for me, but your mileage may vary. Keep flying and stay shiny.

If you like westerns and you like sci-fi, you'll enjoy Firefly. What makes this series fun is that while it's sci-fi at its core, there are no aliens, no planet destroying weapons, no planetary sized wars, it's a nice deviation from the standard sci-fi trope.

Had already purchased the series on standard DVD. Blu-ray version is higher video quality and much more convenient is size than DVD version. Recommend the purchase of the movie 'Serenity' which wraps up the series to complete your purchase.

I prefer to buy items in store rather than online since I like to shop. I had been looking everywhere for the Firefly series for months since this is one of my husbands favorite series and he had lost his. I was very surprised to find it at Bestbuy and really pleased I did! They have other hard to find movies/series there too so before I order them online, I will always check there first!

This was such a great show it was a shame it didn't get more time to shine while it is a short series you will not regret adding this to your collection.
