With its distinctive vision, sharply written characters, and entertaining dialogue, this show is both unique and entertaining.

Firefly might be pushing 20 years old, but it holds up better than many of its peers and even shows that came later.

The Hollywood Reporter

In a new season largely bereft of innovative ideas or daring concepts, Firefly stands out like a supermodel at a bus stop.

IMDb

Comparable in flavor to critically-acclaimed Cowboy Bebop... Everyone was sad to see this show go, especially the stars.

‘Firefly’ arrived as Joss Whedon’s most completely detailed and believable fictional universe [...] It wasn’t just because Whedon was the boss, it was because ‘Firefly’ just felt ‘right,’ right from the get-go.

IMDb

Think spaghetti westerns crossed with sci-fi and that's Firefly.

Rotten Tomatoes

Firefly earns its audience's adoration with the help of Nathan Fillion's dry delivery, a detailed fantasy world, and compelling storylines.

Rotten Tomatoes

The dialogue is not quite as snappy as Buffy or Angel, but both those shows started slowly and built momentum. Firefly may do the same.
