one of the 3 or 4 best TV shows ever, and probably the one that least deserved it's untimely cancellation. :(

but as sci-fi great Theodore Sturgeon once wrote, "a brieft star burns brightly."

@DangerousDac: Haha well said :c) ... I'm off to buy a Blu-Ray player

Rabid Penguin

@Rabid Penguin: If by any extra features you mean Hi def Sexy Space Sex and Greased up Mechanics coupled with Gazillion.1 surround sound of chinese cursing and backward future talk then yes, yes it does.

Gods I miss this show.

DangerousDac

(first post with my new N810 btw)

Probably not the thing to get if you already have it on DVD, but if you DON'T then by all means go for it.
The extras are great and you get the unaired episodes too!

strider_mt2k

I never saw it while it was on TV and it took forever for a friend of mine to convince me to watch it. Creator of Buffy and Angel... no thanks. But when I finally broke down and watched it, I must admit, it's one of the greatest sci-fi shows I've ever seen. Really good stuff.

Are there any additional features new to the blu-ray edition?

Rabid Penguin

BRING FIREFLY BACK TO TV.....sniff :(

warxsnake

Great tribute to a great show. I approve.

NeoXY

Yay! The Continuing Adventures of Han Solo! Captain Tightpants away...

OMG! Ponies!

Thank you geezus! One of my all time favorite Sci-fi action shows. Next to Cowboy Bebop that is.

FrankenPC

One more reason for me to get my butt in gear and get a BR player...

RiceBandit

I paid $17 for my DVD set when it was on sale. How much better will the HD version be?

Noobs-R-Us

its been in reruns on Universal HD for years already.

brundlefly76

Fine...I will buy this series again. Already own it on DVD, but I have to have this in HD. My purchase would be even sweeter if this includes more special features.

I miss this show as well.

nflsonic

I don't like sci fi shows, movies, sci fi anything, but my lord this show is AMAZING! I might wait until the price comes down a tad before chucking these in my PS3 and sitting back to look at the 1080p wonderfulness.

Kev50027

I don't care I'm still free.. You can't take the sky from me!!.. BRING IT BACK!!

preskewl

I always think to myself:

"If I had 3 wishes they would be...."

1. Firefly back on air
2. Money Tree
3. More Wishes

Substance_D

Eh, I could care less. I saw a few episodes when it was airing on Fox, I thought it was horrible.

Go on, flame me.

stonedbeyondthepoint

I'm holding out for the HD-DVD release...Blu-Ray won't win this war.

Con Seannery

@stonedbeyondthepoint: You're a complete moron and idiot. How can you not agree with the masses? Conform or leave. kidding....

I completely agree with the masses. Firefly is one of my all time favorites.

Tank

I watched this on FOX a couple times, but they screwed Joss over from the beginning by airing the episodes out of order... stoopid! Not until I was forced to watch 3 episodes in proper order did I begin realize that it was both brilliant and awesome. I'm glad they were able to wrap it up with a decent movie, even if it differed from the series a bit.

Anyway, I love the show. It's Hi-larious (just like sick people).

hobobobo

This is cool news! I don't have a Blu-Ray player... nor plan to get one... but Firefly!

UniComp

One of the best scifi shows ever!

mangamonster

Firefly was amazing... except for the lame brothel episode that was over-the-top cheesy.

chiablo

Take my, take my land,
Take me where I cannot stand....

was there ever more to that song than wuts in the intro to Firefly? i could never find more and its so FUckin awesome

ArrogantAce

Still rewatching it. Definitely one of my favorite TV shows ever. Glad they're releasing it on Blu-Ray. At least that means it's still alive (sort of) to Fox.

aznxenocide

@chiablo: The brothel episode was great except for the lame laser-car. Now "Shindig" was a stinker; everyone dressed like they were in Gone With the Wind and Mal got a job because he was lousy at sword fighting.

Tysto

I did not watch this .. I guess I really can't say series, since nothing completed?

Anyways I did watch it on Xboxlive, and even fancied buying the 14 eps.. Glad I didn't buy them right away on regular dvd.

I wish, they would go ahead and finish this series up.

-Core-

@Tysto: Yeah but that last stab at the end? -priceless.

strider_mt2k

As we wait to embrace yet another remake or retelling.... Bionic Woman, Knight Rider, 90210, Robinson Crusoe... Or completely stupid shows like a 2 minute commercial creation reality show called Pitchman hosted by Billy Mays.

Writers strike! First they have to be able to write.

LoganSix

@strider_mt2k: You don't know how often my wife and I quote that scene and crack up :x

"Mercy is the mark of a great man."
*stab!* "oof!"
"I guess I'm just a good man."
*stab!* "ow!"
"Eh, I'm alright."

I love this show so much, really a shame it got cancelled :(

greenkabbage

would have been more worth the price if it included Serenity. Still, Firefly was a great show killed by Fox's timeslot moves and out-of-sequence showing. Oh well. Family Guy came back, maybe if DVD sales are good they might bring the series back as well /wishful thinking.

froggy

I will pick this up and pass my DVD set on to someone.

groovyone

Screw you with a wire brush, Fox. Double-dipping gives you more money. This I will not do.

Killjoy

"But you know you're going to watch and re-watch this thing many times over, if only for the scenes with Inara and the other companion. We'll be in our bunk."

You fools! The "bunk" quote was when Inara was with the Senator!

Brock

Oh, Firefly. :(

dylanwho

I've just got one thing to add....

"Jayne, the man they call Jayne

He robbed from the rich
And he gave to the poor
Stood up to the man
And gave him what for
Our love for him now
Ain't hard to explain
The hero of Canton
The man they call Jayne "

and one other tidbit....

"I can kill you with my brain...."

Eric_Scud

@greenkabbage:

I loved the episode with the bounty hunters where Mal knocks one of the hunters into Serenity's intake manifold. "Anyone else have any problems?"

FrankenPC

So sorry but Outlaw Star > Firefly. Such a complete rip off of a perfectly good anime. Hell, they even stole the naked android chick that navigates the ship.

Kothoga

You guys are high. Firefly was barely mediocre and in no way even matches Buffy. Don't waste your money on this...just borrow it from one of your slightly less cool friends.

fattyjoe

Mmmm. Hi-def Kaylee and Saffron.

anfauglir

@FrankenPC: That's my favorite scene as well!

The funny thing is that I watched Serenity before I ever saw a single episode of Firefly. After watching the series, I went back & re-watched Serenity. Made much more sense! I'm so glad Joss got the chance to wrap everything up and give us at least some degree of closure on things.

MtnManiacX

I too never saw the show till Serentiy came out.
I think the show fell to bad marketing.

Razta

@anfauglir: "Mal's Engine Kick" - has been voted as one of the best scenes of sci fi

comp_wiz101

@Razta:

NO marketing. I never heard about it until the DVD release.

FrankenPC

No marketing, and constant pre-empting by the World Series.

Kaylee: "Screw this, I'm gonna live!!"
