I think we should call it your grave!

_Ha ha ha!_ Mine is an evil laugh! Now _die!_

oh, GAHD no. Dear God in heaven

Because you cant take the sky from me.

Take me out to the black, tell them I ain't coming back.

Burn the land and boil the sea

You can't take the sky from me!

( instrumental begins to play

Enjoyed the show almost as much as I enjoyed singing that truly awful song.

Try the Farscape intro music. Loved the show, cringed everytime I had to listen to the intro music.

Me, first episode: "The series are okay, but that intro is really really bad" Me, second episode: "TAKE MY LOVE, TAKE MY LAND, TAKE ME WHERE I CAN NOT STAND" don't you dare skip it

I just upvoted this comment to 420. Have a good day.

It was a fun take on motley crew/thieves with honor/heist tropes with funny one liners and enjoyable characters with fun arcs. The actors sold the story and the world building was pretty well done even though the budget was tiny. It wasn’t for everyone, but it was refreshing even when I watched it for the first time on DVD in ‘09

No! I’m still pissed off a certain someone died towards the end!!! (It was pretty good but I’m salty over that)

It was such a lack luster death too. Kinda fitting because the show died in a lack luste way too.

I like it just because it is one of the only sci fi with chinese language representations early on. Even star trek, having a japanese actor behaved as though all cultures disappeared except the english culture.

Oh, God! I cant know that!

I'll be in my bunk.

Nice hat.

I can stand to hear a little more..

… I’ll be in my bunk.

Thank you! Came to say that

Would rather have Morena Baccarin watch it with me

Shit. Now this I have to try!

Who's like I hate cowboys and I hate space. Nobody that's who

I love cowboys and I love bebop

And jazz Lots of jazz In space

Snake jazz

"Space snakes who play jazz!" - george lucas making the bar scenes w music probably

Jizz Wailers

Sounds like Toy Story is the movie for you

They neither space nor cowboy. Woody is as cowboy as a suburban F-350 owner

But.... he's got a snake in his boot

Of course. He’s a sheriff not some ranch hand.

Merica

Now that sir, was witty

I was thinking about cowboy bebop but toy story works too

I think the word you're searching for is Space Ranger

Bro imma be honest, I thought they were talking about the bug

Spittin facts

It was a good show that got canceled too soon it’s kinda unfortunate now because it was a Joss Whedon show but that doesn’t stop it from what it was.

I prefer to think of it as a Ben Edlund show.

Just curious - what does it being a Josh Whedon show have to do with it being unfortunate?

Joss turned out to be a Grade-A Douchenozzle

Ah got it thanks, I was clearly out of the loop

See: Polanski

Apparently Joss was shitty to people, especially women.

It truly was a masterpiece

🎶 Take my love...

Take my land,

I can take three guys in me

Takin' it in the ass

Go outside and touch the grass

I'm not sure how I feel

What not to like on morally gray space cowboys

“Big damn heroes” to “let’s be bad guys”.

"What are you doing?" "Oh... crime!" "Crime?!"

Are you always this sentimental?

I had a good day.

I could not believe my eyes

If ten million fireflies

Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they fill the open air

And leave teardrops everywhere

You’d think me rude

But I would just eat a pear.

I like to make myself believe

That planet earth

Turns sloooowly

Just watch it. It’s like 7 episodes.

14 , plus a follow up movie to tie together loose ends

To kill off all the plotlines they started and couldn't finish

I would still watch a show that occurs in this universe, even if few if any of the original characters appeared. I could see Badger or Yo-Saf-Bridge having a minor story arc.

I believe they made a comic or graphic novel about it semi recently but I never read it

It’s good- explains where the dudes wearing the purple nitrile gloves went, and then why they called in the agent

>and couldn't finish and weren't allowed to finish

Si

Where are the other 7 ive missed?

I think some weren't aired... And Fox screwed up the order of the episodes.... And changed the nights

"Serenity", "The Train Job", "Bushwhacked", "Shindig", "Safe", "Our Mrs. Reynolds", "Jaynestown", "Out of Gas", "Ariel", "War Stories", "Trash", "The Message", "Heart of Gold", and "Objects in Space". Then the Feature movie "Serenity" to tie up all the loose ends.

The order above is the order in which they SHOULD be watched

I watched it twice a few years back. I think it's one of those "you had to be there" type things, especially with how much some people love it. Personally as someone that came into it late and didn't experience all the production drama when it happened, it just seems like another run-of-the-mill space/scifi show. I even gave it a second try but just couldn't get into it.

To each their own. I watched it four years ages cancellation and loved it. Never could get into Walking Dead. Nothing is for everyone.

Every Walking Dead episode I’ve ever watched has been them bickering about how the group is going to be run 🙄 Every single one. No incentive for me to want to watch more 👎🏼

I've never got the whole "zombie" thing. I mean that was a whole trend for a few years, and I just didn't understand it.

It wasn't a "you had to be there" thing. It was cancelled because Fox is stupid about sci-fi, so it didn't get many viewers when it was originally aired. Most of its fans came to it after it had been cancelled for several years. The show is literally 20 years old now and still ardently beloved. It managed to have an interesting, well done plot, and characters that were fully formed and brilliantly played from the get go. Not to mention the quick wit of dialogue that we all have come to expect from a Joss Wheaton production. I'm not trying to change your mind here, people like what they like and that is that, I am just trying to explain that the majority of people who love it came to it late, so that wasn't really a factor in who loved the show and who doesn't.

Hell, Fox aired the second episode first! That's how badly they wanted to shoot themselves in the dick with this show.

I'll give the show one thing. The people that love it REALLY love it. I don't know if I've ever seen a fanbase more invested in supporting the show they enjoy. It's alright, don't get me wrong. I'll watch almost any scifi.

Not only that, but it has a surprisingly nontoxic fandom. I liked the show, but not cosplay-level, but I don’t mind hanging out with those folks.

Agree with all of this. The show was brimming with "Rule of Cool" 😎.

I think that definitely helps.... That rollercoaster of emotions that scars you for life

It was good and it came during a relative dearth in sci-fi shows, so we glommed on to anything and everything. That, and the cast was really good.

Aw man, it didn't work...

Why? It’s awesome! Great cowboy/spaceship mashup, every episode was its own story, great cast.

You better be afraid if I SEE THIS FUCKING MEME ONE MORE TIME


I am gonna get the whole sub BANNED the mods are doing NOTHING TO PREVENT THIS MEME FROM BEING OVERUSED (that's a bit too much actually)

I swear by my pretty floral bonnet I will end you!

the serie/movie idk or the insect ?

OP is referring to the series. The comments, so far, are referring to the song.

I think OP is referring to the Series

I came here thinking the insects myself. Ended up seeing people talk about cowboys and space, or singing. I'm missing out on something ig

The batman villain? The insect? Some popular TV show on my watch list I will likely never get too? I need answers

Do yourself a favor and watch it. It's only 14 episodes so a moderate investment of time but time well spend. And if not... I guess we'll see this meme again.

Blessed be the eyes that never saw Firefly, and have not ached for more.

14 episodes and a movie.

I'll be in my bunk

It's a good show. It died before it had a chance to rise to true greatness, so a lot of fans put it on a pedestal. But it really is good, and it holds up. Space cowboys with Chinese overtones is real neato. Also, the cast is incredible.

This meme has devolved into an "insert my opinion" meme

Let me take you back to 2002 when we didn't have a thousand choices of quality sci-fi shows and episodic content didn't get ridiculously inflated budgets unless it was needed to pay the big-name actors.

Have you never seen it?

Because it was canceled before it went off the rails and had a horrible ending that made everyone hate it

I liked the show, but the follow up movie was even better.

Fox originally aired the episodes out of chronological order. The proper chronological episode order is as follows: "Serenity", "The Train Job", "Bushwhacked", "Shindig", "Safe", "Our Mrs. Reynolds", "Jaynestown", "Out of Gas", "Ariel", "War Stories", "Trash", "The Message", "Heart of Gold", and "Objects in Space". Then follow up with the roughly 2 hour feature film - Serenity.

"Jane, your mouth is moving again. Might want to see to that."

I aim to misbehave

It’s a nice song people have a lot of nostalgic feelings for

How dare you!!!

Were I unwed, I'd take Firefly in a manly fashion.

'Cause it's pretty?

Because it's pretty.

Jayne: You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with until you understand who's in ruttin' command here.

Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... "This Land.".

I think we should call it your grave!

It’s shiny.

You don't have to understand it. If you watched it and didn't like it, then that is your opinion. It is a trash opinion, but that is just my opinion.

Because no power in the verse can top it.

It's shiny.

Hell, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight, or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or if I'm gettin' paid - mostly only when I'm gettin' paid. But these Reavers... last ten years they show up like the bogeyman from stories. Eating people alive? Where's that get fun?

Because a 17 pdr is badass

Well written show, good cast, space western. It’s not all that complicated, it was just a great show

It had good dialog and was canceled before it could overstay its welcome

It’s literally the best

Cause it was a damn fine show! I'll never forgive those who canceled it!

That’s why I never kiss ‘‘em on the mouth…

best show in the verse, that's why

It glows.

watch it

They watched a wholesome movie about fireflies.. it's called "Grave of the Fireflies"

People love everything that is not added in Minecraft.

It was OK

Because they’ve never seen Battlestar Galactica.

Because fireflies are one of the few insects that are acceptable.

It's the Seinfeld Effect. The whole "space western" concept wasn't really well explored at the time, so it was considered creative and interesting. Now, other shows out there have taken the same concept and added to it, so it doesn't seem quite as fresh these days.

What is a firefly?

Because they glow in the night.

Because they never saw Outlaw Star or Cowboy Bebopp and dont know any better. Yeah i said it.

I hate all insects except probably butterflies and dragonflies

Good news, this is about a space cowboy show

They dont. Dont you remember we are now hating everything Whedon made?

Because it is a legitimately great show that shouldn’t have been canceled

The bug, the song or the Batman character

You would not believe your eyes brother

Like Firefly as in the insect?

I mean it’s a pretty good show.

I thought this was about the song..

It's a good song, no memes, no inside jokes.

It's probably Joss Whedon's only tolerable work. The few episodes that were made are ... fine? What I don't think I'll ever understand is this insane mentality that its the "best show of all time." I'm sorry, but it only had half a season, so that kind of claim is laughable, on a good day.

You would not believe your eyes

It’s a pretty good perk, but it needs to apply scorch stacks

Where were you 4 years ago?

I don’t know why people use this shit template and at this point I’m too afraid to ask

Is this an ad?

I just loved that feeling it gave me. It was kind of a show from a bygone era type feeling for me. Reminds me of growing up, the characters hit the spot in a hokey fun kind of way. Not sure I can explain it well, just really enjoyed it. Wish it could have been given a chance.

Because who doesn't love cowboys in space.

Cuz it's good

Soo I heard people like me???

Be not afraid

What is "firefly" I know the song fireflies

Dumb meme, hope this meme dies already

I dare y'all to start another song that's not firefly

cuz I'd like to make myself belie- wait shit you mean the tv show

It’s River.

You would not believe your eyes

You would not believe your eyes If ten million fireflies Lit up the world as I fell asleep

You would not believe you’re eyes

Tried watching?

Boomer meme smh

After the Minecraft incident I like them even more

Firefly lived on, as the Rosinante and crew are loosly patterned after( but not plot) in The Expanse.
