K and I have been watching one of our Christmas presents, Season 1 (I don’t think there were any other seasons, were there?) of Firefly on DVD. We’re about 8 episodes in, counting the 2 hour pilot/movie that actually didn’t show until after the first episode for some reason. We’re *loving* it.

It makes me miss Buffy the Vampire Slayer even more. That was one of the best shows ever and I miss it every Tuesday night.? I wish Joss Whedon had a show that hit the big time, that was a smashing sucess and stayed on the air for 10 or more seasons.? That would be television heaven.

In the meantime, we have these Firefly episodes to watch, and when we finish it, we’re going to get Serenity and watch that too.? I heartily recommend this show to anyone who is looking for something new to watch and really appreciates quality tv shows.

Ballad of Serenity
lyrics and music by Joss Whedon
sung by Sonny Rhodes

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 coming back
burn the land
and boil the sea
you can’t take the sky from me

have no place
I can be
since I found Serenity
but you can’t take the sky from me
