Oh? I'm intrigued. I DID like Heroes, can you post a trailer or any more information about it? Maybe it'll ring a bell when I see something.

I recorded two eps I think, then Sky Reminder forgot to remind itself and series link went on a business holiday and I lost interest. I might try and catch up when they (inevitably) repeat it.

After all, it HAS got Kiefer in it...! :)

Not so sure about the link to "Heroes" though, as we all know where THAT ended up!

Ahh that's right, the show with Kiefer. I wasn't too interested in that actually! :/ Maybe I'll look into it some more sometime!

Firefly
Re-watching this. I remembered it was good, but I forgot how good. It amazes me that it only lasted one season.

One of the four people on the planet who just didn't get Firefly. No matter how much I watched, yeah it was okay but not the second coming that everyone seems to think it was.

Personally, I'm not surprised it only got the one season. Just did nothing for me. I realise I'm in the serious minority here, but that's how I feel.

I'd say you're in the majority actually. That's why it got cancelled.

What I love about it is the characters. Between the incredibly sharp writing and perfect casting, each of the nine main characters is three dimensional in ways not generally seen in sci-fi television. The ways in which they interact with each other is really what drives the show.

The majority of TV-watchin' sci-fi fans I guess.
I haven't met a single person in real life who dislikes Firefly. Then again I'm kind of a Joss fanboy. It's pretty obvious that he's just too good for network television.

Now we'll see how he fares as a multi-zillionaire Hollywood film guy. All of his TV shows are better than The Avengers of course.
He's actually similar to David Lynch in televisionland in that the thinking fellers who watch TV are vastly outnumbered by TV-watching publics who don't understand or care for Whedon's talent for combining subtle humor, smart dialogue, and good character development with spaceships and lasers and other fantasy shit.

'Twas what I was going to say. It's all about falling in love with the characters and their little relationships with each other. A good episode of Firefly (i.e. pretty much all of them) is one where just about every sentence a character says just makes you laugh and/or love that character even more.

Seriously, how is that not the most glorious thing a TV character has ever said?

Voltron and He Man of course! I used the DNS hack to get american netflix and it's wonderful.

I've been watching the new Battlestar Galactica on Netflix. Just finishing season 3. I think it may be the best Sci-Fi show I've ever seen.
