Firefly - Season 1 Review
by iwantmycookies | created - 04 Jun 2016 | updated - 06 Jun 2016 | PublicSeason rating - 9-amazing
Highlight episode - Out of Gas
MVP - Nathan Fillion
A fantastic season which, although had a few average episodes, never ceased to be thoroughly entertaining. Joss Whedon's dialogue is especially great and really brings the characters to life. The cast is brilliant, also, Nathan Fillion excellent in the lead of Mal Reynolds. It baffles me how this show was cancelled so prematurely.
