“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.”
Firefly. A short-lived (curse you FOX!) but epic example of a space western science fiction drama comedy. An Intergalactic Space Cowboy. A girl who can kill people with her brain. A society recovering from a civil war, in which the Rebel Browncoats and the Alliance fought for control of the galaxy. A vision in which “nothing will change in the future: technology will advance, but we will still have the same political, moral, and ethical problems as today” (Joss Whedon). Dinosaur battles with sudden, but inevitable, betrayals. A man named Jayne.
There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who love Firefly and those who have never experienced 14 episodes and one film of glory.
Time and space are always intriguing...and when they are combined, good things happen!
“You can’t take the sky from me”...I can always rewatch it on DVD. Or Blu-Ray. Or Netflix.
