This is a tv show which was cancelled right after the first season for whatever reason. It's a sci-fi show with both high-tech and lo-tech qualities. The movie Serenity was made to conclude the series. I have wanted to watch that movie for a long time now but I still have to watch all of the episodes. So far, I watched 1-7. All I have to do now is watch 8-14.... then finally the movie!!

And if.... And if you like collecting replicas of game/movie items, you can get a hold of your very own 1:180 scale model of the Serenity itself. It's 23 1/2" high and 12" wide.. Here's what a site has to say about it....
"It’s nearly impossible to sum up the amount of detail and work that was put into this item, which is perfectly called Serenity — The Big Damn Replica, so you’ll have to refer to the list below for full details. The team that worked on it put in three whole years doing research and taking every possible measure and precaution to ensure its utmost flawlessness. The unfortunate aspect to this pile of awesome, is that most of us will never ever own one. You see, there will only be one thousand of them ever produced, and each one will cost you $2,699.99 with a $540 deposit required — OR, if you desperately need one, you can drop only $431 a month using their payment program."
Now, seeing that this article was written in 2009, I'm sure that they were all scooped up, but for a price, you can have one....
EGADS!!!

I've been trying to get shadowcrunch to watch this for a while now, but with no success. Maybe he'll reconsider when the both of us proclaim its worthiness.

Yeah just like I've been trying to force myself to start watching LEXX again but keep putting it off or forgetting. I'll put Firefly on my list.

Oh my god!.....
I've tried to watch LEXX again... could NOT do it.. made it through a couple of episodes. No no no no no!!!!!
The only thing good about that series is the hot chick, but she still doesn't make it worth watching..

I only saw...MAYBE... two episodes. I remember it being very British humor wrapped in a hardcore sci-fi setting. But that could be my memory being wacky also. Not British 'Red Dwarf' or 'Black Adder' humor, just that dry sarcastic stuff... and for some reason my memory is saying most of that was some kind of robot or A.I. device that was piloting the ship most of it took place on? See? I'm probably so far off, I must be putting like 3 different shows together or something!
I know I'm NOT thinking of Farscape, cuz I know I enjoyed the first season of that, though I never saw any more and only remember the first couple episodes somewhat. I do know the little light-em-up mushroom headed alien dude continued his career in 'Your Highness'...
