Quoted from jayhawkai:

Firefly was great; Arrested Development was sublime.

Firelfy getting cancelled was a much bigger travesty. Hell, I'm still pissed off about it over a decade later. Arrested Development at least got three seasons, and to be honest, it was running out of steam towards the end. Firefly was yanked after only 12 episodes, and I'd still argue that it might be the best show to ever grace our television screens.

Quoted from Cheeks:

So many people say this. I thought Firefly was OK, but I never got the outrage. I didn't watch it until after it had been cancelled, so I didn't have any emotion about its end.

I think there were many better Sci-Fi shows than this. I have to believe the early cancellation added to the infamy of the show as I just don't see how so many people think it was the best show ever. Maybe, MAYBE it would make my top 10 Sci-Fi. Not even close to top 10 all shows considered.

Obviously, it's just my opinion, but I think Firefly was absolutely brilliant. Sadly, we'll never know how the characters and story would have evolved, but I think Joss created a wonderful tapestry with unlimited potential. I'm a sci-fi guy, and I watch all the shows, but Firefly had me hooked in a way that is very rare. The only other sci-fi shows that had close to the same impact on me were Farscape and Babylon 5.
