It's difficult to imagine how expectations for the new Joss Whedon (Buffy) sci-fi show Firefly could have been much higher. We're talking about the creator of one of the best shows on TV and a dramatic genre that is finally starting to come into its own. Gone are the days when we had to watch yet another rerun of Star Trek or Lost in Space to get our sci-fi ya-yas out. We've got some variety, some choice, and long before the pilot actually aired, Buffy and sci-fi fans all over were making it clear they were eager to choose Firefly as their new favorite.
