It's a pity to learn that the show was cut due to poor ratings, but this short first season is really touching. I have seen Doctor Who, Babylon 5, and almost all sci-fi blockbusters. Only "Firefly" gave me a different look and feel. It is a western movie set in space but full of that long-lost sword-fighting style. Humor and witty run through throughout, and the Chinese that I come across from time to time gives people an inexplicable sense of intimacy! Each character is impressive, and each episode has a close-up shot of the facial expressions of several characters, combining heroism, trust, embarrassment, hope, perseverance, composure, touching, admiration, cunning, disrespect... all joys and sorrows are Congealed in this frame-by-frame facial close-up, straight to your heart!
After watching the first season, I still have no idea, maybe the second season will come out one day in the future. In the long years of waiting, there is a single-player game that I once played and suddenly came back to my mind, and that is "FreeLancer" - just like the Firefly in the film, flying with the freedom in my heart, to every part of the universe. a corner...

Firefly quotes

  • [opening narration for episodes: Safe, Ariel, War Stories, Heart of Gold]

    Mal: Here's how it is: The Earth got used up, so we moved out and terraformed a whole new galaxy of Earths. Some rich and flush with the new technologies, some not so much. The Central Planets, thems formed the Alliance, waged war to bring everyone under their rule; a few idiots tried to fight it, among them myself. I'm Malcolm Reynolds, captain of Serenity. She's a transport ship; Firefly class. Got a good crew: fighters, pilot, mechanic. We even picked up a preacher for some reason, and a bona fide companion. There's a doctor, too, took his genius sister outta some Alliance camp, so they're keepin' a low profile. You understand. You got a job, we can do it, don't much care what it is.

  • opening song: Take my love, take my land / Take me where I cannot stand / I don't care, I'm still free / You can't take the sky from me / Take me out to the black / Tell 'em I ain't comin' back / Burn the land and boil the sea / You can't take the sky from me / There's no place I can be / Since I found serenity / But you can't take the sky from me
