Joss Whedon attempted to follow up his successful series Buffy the Vampire Slayer with the science fiction-themed Firefly. Although the series failed to garner a mass audience, it did have a loyal following. Those fans will be pleased by this box set that contains every episode of the series that aired, as well as three never-before-seen episodes. All 15 episodes are presented in anamorphic widescreen. English, French, and Spanish soundtracks are rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. Commentaries are available on four of the episodes. Production featurettes, a blooper reel, and a tour of the set with Whedon round out this solid package that should be of interest to genre enthusiasts as well as Whedon's fans.

This show was recommended by a friend to watch and after watching the first two episodes, I was hooked and had to finish the entire series over two nights.
The acting and characters really lure you in. It has great dialog, great storyline, humorous and interesting characters, basically all the the elements the networks hate giving us intelligent humans to watch.
I actually saw it a few years ago but it was from a borrowed copy so I felt it was important to show my gratitude and I buy my own.
