Read the first 8, I thought they were stellar - is there anything else to read that's worthwhile? Even fanfiction. Cheers
I have all the expansions already and have played the story’s to death. I see they made some new ones for the anniversary addition and I looked around here and online but couldn’t find details on them
But he's super stubborn, very one-track mind, hyper-focusy, ADHD and autism (diagnosed professionally, I hate that I need to make that distinction) and he's super into anime, what is the best anime to compare the adventures of our lovely crew of Serenity to?
There’s someone that lives near me that has their truck custom painted (or maybe covered) with Firefly 💛 Backend says “I aim to misbehave”. It’s awesome and I’m jealous. Possible future friend if I ever lose the social anxiety and say hi 😅
I don’t know if anybody else geeks out about this, but I love spotting the cast members in other productions. I’ve seen several of them as guest stars in other shows, or as recurring support or main characters.
I’ve started watching The Rookie, which obviously stars Mal (sorry, I can’t think of him as Nathan, they are all always their firefly characters to me). Simon made an appearance in one episode (I almost didn’t recognize him!) and Wash had a really cool character. And this got me thinking about this whole topic.
I think my favorite little surprise was seeing Mal/Nathan in Santa Clara Diet, where he played this totally awful man trying to blackmailed a woman into sleeping with him. It was SOO different from the characters he usually plays. He played it really well, but it was still kinda hard for me to buy it/hate him because I already love him by default, you know?
What are your favorites?
I have watched all the Firefly episodes and Serenity. Now what? Where should I go for more firefly what should I turn to in order?
First day, new job and my husband gets me this. It's been a rough time for me over the past few years. Limited edition Serenity Soundtrack double vinyl Browncoat color (vs blue).
Who would he keep a photo of a dog that he killed on the panel of his ship? That doesn't make any sense.
So I decided to rewatch Firefly again and I noticed this mistake in E1 “serenity”. It was just after they escaped the reavers. I noticed Wash was supposed to be holding the steering controls but it just looks like he is giving a thumbs up. Anyone else notice this or any other mistakes.
Just bought Serenity 4k bluray so decided to binge watch for the first time in years.... only streamer I found it available on was Hulu?! Anyway, it looked and sounded terrible! Looked like 480p and hand to crank the volume to even hear it. Found it on prime (digital) in 1080p for $13. Upscaling on my Shield TV Pro and it's unbelievable! Any of you out there without the blurays... just buy it somewhere! Don't stream, they don't do it justice

Heading. Thoughts?
So I need a list of the books/novels/comics released, and I seem to confusing myself, which honestly isn't that hard. but I have followed the list below
https://www.comicbooktreasury.com/serenity-firefly-reading-order-comics-joss-whedon/
I don't know whether I am overthinking it or I am just that dense, the only way I can describe it is a nesting doll of stories.
I NEED CLARIFICATION! Please look below and see if I am understanding this right!
Firefly #1, Firefly #2, Firefly #3, Firefly #4 = Unification War Vol.1 - 4 SEPERATE COMICS
Firefly #5, Firefly #6, Firefly #7, Firefly #8 = Unification War Vol.2 - 4 SEPERATE COMICS
Firefly #9, Firefly #10, Firefly #11, Firefly #12 = Unification War Vol.2 - 4 SEPERATE COMICS
Firefly Unification War Deluxe Edition = All of the above #1-#12 all seperate comics?
The reason I need clarification is I am looking at buying these and am getting confused as to whether I am looking for all individual comics or am I looking for 1 book/item containing 4 different stories? I apologise for my longwinded post, I am really confused and would like someone to explain it really simply for me.
TIA
...awesome. Dollhouse is on CWTV as well so I've been watching them both side by side and it occurred to me for the first time how good she is at some pretty tough roles.
My brother asked you guys if he should warn me because of my favourite characters. I finally finished everything…I miss Wash and Shepherd already
It was written at Fox's demand last minute, but I think it's as good an episode as any.
I also love Serenity and the books (except the ghost machine)
Are there any collectors of this card set out there?
I've been rewatching Firefly and noticed what seems to be a plot weakness in the storyline of "The Message."
When the crew is deciding what to do since they're pinned down in the canyon by the rogue cop, Mal and Book talk cryptically about letting them board their ship. Why didn't they fill Tracey in on the plan, rather than let him assume the worst, thinking they planned on handing him over? If they had filled him in, Tracey wouldn't have panicked and gotten himself killed.
So. I knew there was this little SF with a cult following that was probably worth watching at some point. This weekend I had some spare time, so I did.
It's the best thing I watched.
The characters all feel like human beings, with flaws and with so much depth going on under the persona (like Jayne telling Book that God should take care of all dead equally.)
The chemistry between actors is unbelievable.
The dialogue is imaginative and snappy and the action beats are spot on.
Writing is great. Sometimes in the same episode (like Jaynestown), I'd be laughing so hard my ribs would hurt and then, suddenly, everything would get reframed and I'd realize the underlying tragedy and poignancy of it all.
Villains (the rogue Companion, Niska, Early) are scary and larger than life in completely different ways.
The world is unique, immersive, crazy enough to be believable, and feels lived in.
I don't think I ever loved a TV show this much. I just itched to tell someone. Thank you for reading :)
