  • I think movies and shows come out the best when the actors and staff are all friends. This (firefly/serenity) and Dr. Who are my two favorite shows, and I think on DW, most of the actors are pretty close as well.

  • jewel staite? where'd you go?

  • Heroicaller is now a word? Whatever you say Mr. Whedon.

  • I did not see it, could someone give me a time?

  • i guess what makes you so sad watching this, is that they all thought the movie would be the restart of the best thing they ever did...except it wasnt . burn in hell FOX...BURN!!

  • aaaah this video made me sad.... miss the show :/

    

  • Shepherd 'Meria' Book? The hell? 1:41

  • everything is gonna be a little more grander. you know, your heroes are gonna be more heroic-cler.....lol XD

  • Go to hell Fox..

  • Has anyone ever noticed that Joss looks like the love child of Ron Howard and Alfred Hitchcock?

  • All you people saying Joss wouldn't have killed off lead characters obviously haven't seen his other shows.

  • "what did we learn today?"

    (feet shuffle)- "....joss is boss"

  • Did he just say heroicaller? Must be a  new word...

  • I was dissapointed with the movie. Didn't like Preacher & Wash dying. IMO if they had kept it on TV they wouldn't have killed them off.

  • @teufeldritch I don't know...I think they would have been killed off, but maybe not in the same season...Book's death didn't bother me the way Wash's did. That one really caught me by surprise when it happened.

  • @teufeldritch

    If they had kept it on air, there is a strong possibility that there wouldn't have been a movie. Serenity came out 2ish years after Firefly was cancelled (2005, (late)2002 respectively) due to fan activity and fundraisers, which is what persuaded Universal to approve of the production of the movie. There was, unfortunately, no hope for the return of the actual television series, so the death of Wash and Book is irrelevant to the series.

  • seriously, who disliked this???? evidently, 7 people work for fox

  • I worked as an extra in two episodes of Firefly and it was great fun just watching the cast and crew interact when the cameras weren't rolling. Nathan Fillion was constantly cracking people up. I only wish I'd watched the show when it was on!

  • god i wish someone picks this up....if not then have it be entirely animated with the original actors doing the voices i dont care....i need more!

  • Fact: FOX network is to the right.

    Fact: After the fallout of 9/11, there was a strong anti-Canadian bias because Canada would only support America in Iran and Afgahnistan, NOT Iraq.

    Fact: Nathan Fillion is Canadian.

    You decide.

  • @AlbertaRose94 Fact your a wanker

  • @GabeoG fact: you used the wrong version of ur.

  • @gleehmee i don't see how that maters. yes I should pay attention to my grammar, but I have a hard time doing that when someone says that fox news is correct in cancelling fire fly because Nathon Fillion is Canadian. that's probably not why they did it, but the fact that someone could utter something so abysmally stupid is vary disheartening.

  • @GabeoG you have misunderstood their post. they said fox news is "to" the right, as in, political leaning. right instead of left, not right as opposed to wrong.

    Also even I understood them to be joking and quite pro-Nathan.

    You had no grounds to be insulting them in such a way regardless, but especially when you didn't understand their comment.

  • @gleehmee I humbly apologies. but I do believe I have the right to insult some one. though I did in this case miss use my right, and I am vary sorry that all this had to happen. I would blame my dyslexia and my habit to read vary fast. though they don't excuse my rashness. I cant be more sorry. :(

  • @GabeoG You do indeed have the right, but you need to make sure you also have the justification. :)

  • @gleehmee yes I now know my mistake, and I am still sorry.

  • For a second I thought Joss Whedon was a very fat Alan Tudyk

  • This show was amazing. The wit and comedy in it was really refreshing and unique. Firefly blended that comedy with emotional concepts and deep moments, which is not easy to do. Also it had action and intrigue. And because it was set in the future and space it that added an element of fantasy to it. The characters and their relationships to each other were complex, which is something I like because I've found that complex relationships tend to keep cliches away. All around a fantastic show, <3

  • Was devastated Mister Nishka wasn't in the movie, one of the greatest villains of all time. First watched the series from a friend's computer a few months ago and when I got to the end of season 1 and realized there was no more, I was gutted.

    Fav Firefly Quote:

    Nishka: You don't like I kill this man

    Mal: No, I'm sure he was a very bad person

    Nishka: My wife's nephew...

  • FOX belongs in special hell.

  • @DJGCrusader Amen to that; brother!

  • @DJGCrusader You took the words right out my mouth.

  • The douchebags at FOX that canceled this show should be strung up by their thumbs, coated with fish guts, and left for the vultures to slowly pick apart.

  • This makes me really, really sad. 

  • Comment removed

  • @neckronn99 I know, it's sad when any great show gets cancelled, but it really seemed lke the Firefly cast and crew got on great and were a huge family. They took it hard when it got cancelled, I think given the chance and the right time and script they would all get back on board because they enjoyed it so much. But those that burn the brightest also burn for the shortest time.

  • All horrible shows never end. All good shows stay on the air. All GREAT shows get cancelled. The BEST SHOW EVER only lasted 14 episodes. Now tell me, does Television make ANY sense????

  • @StrawberryLipgloss13 Case in point: Two and-a-half Men is still on-the-air.

  • I wish they would bring back Firefly!!

  • @baybeebekki11 But it wouldn't be the same without Wash and Book :(

  • @Browncoatt22 Yeah, I really wanted more background on Book. Him and Wash were great. If Firefly ever started again I'd like to see it take place after Objects in Space but before the movie, tell the story in the way it was originally meant to be told.

  • @YorkJonhson *Spoilers* Well there are Serenity comics that tell you little more about Wash and what happens after his dfeath, and The Shepherds Tale comic tells you all about Book's back story aswell. I agree about the TV show, that's when it should be set if ever, but it wouldn't really allow for much progression of character as Kaylee & Simon get together in the film, Zoe is found to be pregnant after Wash's death. Nothing much could progress as far as it would've had the show continued.

  • @Browncoatt22 There are a few comics, but they don't cover things as much as fans would like. And Kaylee and Simon could still get their moment together, it could be pulled off and developed in an episodic format, as well as other events that the movie covered. You know, if they wanted to excuse the movie and retell it as a series.

  • @YorkJonhson Well, I'm all for it anyways as long as it didn't seem like a laboured effort and was the same qualty it used to be :) People say bring back Buffy alot, but Buffy had an ending, it had a great run, Firefly never really got a chance and still manages to have a huge loyal fanbase, I think t is much more deserving of a second shot.

  • @Browncoatt22 Yeah, with so many fans opting for it I never understood why it hasn't gotten its reboot. It deserved a long run, and Fox cheated it from the start. Heh, and yet you'll see terrible shows get new season after season.

  • Serenity was atleast a good wrapup to a prematurely cut off series.

    Sure it was a contrived end that seemed really out of place, but it was put in that place pretty damn well for the cap to a story that had only just gotten rolling.

  • Firefly is the leaf on the wind.

  • Nathan Fillion is AWESOME!

  • I don't understand how fox can justify keeping the rights to Firefly when it really seems like they don't plan to use them for anything. Give the rights to people who will use them. Firefly could easily find a home on Syfy, it was never meant for fox anyway, And showing the episodes out of order is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Thanks fox, now I hate you for killing the best show ever AND having the most biased news on television.

  • This is an Easter Egg? Doesn't look like it to me; just your typical DVD behind-the-scenes video. O_o?

  • @EVAUnit4A If I remember right, you had to do some hunting on the original DVD of Serenity to find this and the thing about the Fruity Oaty Bar. I found the Fruity Oaty Bar one when my DVD player remote was low and battery and therefore being dumb. They're easier to get to on the Special Edition release.

  • @stardove3

    I HAVE the Collector's Edition. =) That's why it surprised me that this wasn't on it.

  • @EVAUnit4A Huh...I thought I didn't see this one till I did get it. I remember the whole "Joss is boss" bit and the "Heroical-er" thing. I'll have to go back and look.

  • @EVAUnit4A it is on it, just not like this. I think the clips are in a different order and scattered throughout the bonus material.

  • Joss: Okay, what have we learned today?

    Nathan: Joss is boss...

    Big geek grin XD

  • Thumbs up if you want Nathan Fillion as Drake in the VG movie adaptation and not Mark Wahlberg who already fucked up Max Payne movie!

  • Cant take the sky from me.

  • cancelling firefly was fox's worst decision ever

  • Serenity just sux compared to Firefly. I gived dislike. They are too big for TV... yea....

  • 5 people work for Fox

  • You can definitely see how Joss' personal humor influences the show!

  • @Liface Oh for sure, his humour is clearly present in Buffy, Angel, Firefly and Dollhouse. If I had a sense of humour that great I would share it too :)

  • Sad thing, if it were a couple of years ago I'd have just passed this off as "cheap sci-fi with planets in the sky" junk and wouldn't have batted an eyelash at it. But this show is so freaking cool! I literally wanna be on Serenity :)

  • BRING BACK THE SHOW!!!!

  • The movie was great however the tv show was greater. Why? Because the tv series didn't end after 2 hours. There was another episode next week, until was cancelled. Another reason the tv show was better is...because Book & Wash weren't killed off. Does anyone think Wash & Book would have been killed off in the next two tv episodes?

  • Heroic-er. Another excellent addition to the english lexicon from Joss Whedon. :)

  • I'm new to Serenity and the series Firely and I bought the series at Fry's and Serenity and I feel they should have a sequal to the ending of Serenity to find out what happend after! Can't they do a DVD blue ray of the after part? I liked it! So why did they did it stop? It was great!

  • @vexviper Fox hates horses. Sad, but that's the reason. They think westerns don't sell.

  • @screamingmeanie I bet Fox would have no problem airing Broke Back Mountain... bleh!

  • @screamingmeanie They never hurt Clint Eastwood... :(

  • "I got a jam in my gun its not workin!"

    "Just pretend to shoot!!"

  • Wow this is so sad in a way

  • Joss is Boss

  • 5 people work for Fox

  • damn contract BS killed an amazing piece of art long before it's time.

  • ATTENTION EVERYONE: There is a movement forming to gather a couple hundred thousand people to pledge to donate money to Nathan Fillion or Joss Whedon to produce a SECOND SEASON of Firefly for online distribution. Go on facebook and like "Help Nathan Buy Firefly" or go to helpnathanbuyfirefly . com for more details. BOOST THE SIGNAL! GET THE WORD OUT!

  • @pvm23456 Where do I sign? What's the Facebook search term?

  • @pvm23456 No, that's long been dead. Whedon said he wouldn't want to do it, and it's been left for dead for a long time.

  • Don't you want to know the names of the executives at Fox thought argued to close the show down? Idiotic sitcoms with 20 year old gags and laugh-tracs get more of a chance than this unique, action-filled, hilarious and touching series. Yes, I love Gina Torres' positive take in her comment that Firefly was just too big for TV and the movie gave them a bigger, better stage-- But it's still a damn shame that there's only one season to view and review (and too much Niska). Damn sad.

  • love nathan, and firefly/serenity. on castle beckett says that castle is like a 9 year old on a sugar rush- i think that must be nathan coming through lol

  • I think Fox lost an awful lot of support after they cancelled Firefly ... and good job too, they're idiots! This movie was incredible ... I just love the line that was in one of the trailers - "In *year it was cancelled* they told us it was over ....... this year, we will show them that it's only just begun"

    <3

  • other than House and Lights Out this would have been my favorite show of all time.

  • They could so make a second season, set after season 1 and before the movie so Wash and Shepherd could both be back in it...Maybe one day

  • "It's like we're on tv. Only better!"

    I'm freakin in love with Adam Baldwin.

  • Damn, I wan't this show back :(

  • I can't imagine the excitement for the cast (and crew) when they heard they were making this, they were doing more Firefly again! I mean ... they're the shows biggest fans!! lol :P

    You can SUCK IT Fox, cos they made BOMB-LOADS outta this film and you didn't get a single penny!!! Now that's payback ... when the series you canceled gets really huge ... after you cancel it!!

    btw did anyone else hear they aired the episodes out of order? I mean (if it's true) how can you possible fuck up THAT bad?!!

  • OK IN THE MEDIUM YOU WANNA BE ! THEN GO FUCKING SERENITY 2 OR SOMETHING !!! SOME ONE BY THE RIGHTS FOR FIREFLY OR SOME THING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAa

  • "and what have we learned today?" *sigh* "Joss is boss'

  • Goram fox can suck, that whole network can suck it ..........words cannot express anything more, WE WANT FIREFLY!!! ( in a chant)

  • Gorram Fox needs to hand over the rights to another network.

    Or is Joss holding it?

  • Wash dying made me cry :(

  • @tehredmage yeah thats because they are criticising the neywork and they would probably cancel any show on their network that did that... Plus the ones from castle are probably mostly because nathan fillion is on the show... On a side note, i also thought i should mention that a commercial for TBBT was playing on TV as i wrote this! :)

  • Heroicaller is now on urban dictionary. You are welcome.

  • okay fox... if you don't bring back fireflies i swear i'll go find some reevers! I would happily quit college and pay to fund it XD

  • too bad it wont ever come back... it was awesome!!

    i love how other shows like "the big bang theory" acknowledges (more than once) the fact that it was cancelled wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy before its time...

  • @PUFFandRUFFLE158 Have you ever noticed that the Firefly shout outs come from shows in networks other than Fox? Big Bang Theory, Castle...

  • Fox should of cancelled its fake news and given us more Firefly!

  • I don't want another movie I want a 10 season show with 24 episodes per season.

    Wash is still in it, he didn't die it was just a flesh wound. Now he has a mechanical heart. Bring the show back FOX your losing money!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Timmeh75 YE I KNOW HUH, so fucking pissed that this was cancelled show deserves 10 seasons fucking hell!!!!!!

  • I would seriuslly pay 20bucks FROM MY OWN POCKET per episode.

  • For the love of god, how can they realise what a big hit it was and NOT bring it back!? COME ON!!!!

  • They were too big for TV, especially for FOX. TV could not contain them.

  • Know why I hate Fox? Because it cancelled my favorite shows. Know why I love Fox? because it constant finds new intelligent and distinct series. To bad they get canceled again.

  • Uh... What? It said Shepherd Meria Book @1:42

  • @djAnakin

    Joss didn't decide on the name Derrial till after this was filmed. He was originally named Meria.

  • Loved the atmosphere that seemed to surround the Firefly cast and crew. Makes you wish you had been there!

    Miss it.

  • "I was goofin around"

    "well... What did we learn today?"

    *sigh* "Joss is Boss..."

    Lolz

  • The fact that Firefly only had 14 episodes (including the unaired ones), while "The Bachelor" has had 15 SEASONS is the main evidence the aliens will use when they argue that Humanity should be destroyed before it spreads.

  • @DoomShepherd The sad thing, is that I'll probably agree with them.

  • @DoomShepherd Sir... you have just nailed it right there. Church.

  • @DoomShepherd The scary thing?

    I'm not sure if I could object...

  • @DoomShepherd OMG You made Mountain Dew shoot out my nose with that one.

  • @DoomShepherd I totally agree lmao ~gives 1 internets~

  • @DoomShepherd Who said the intelligent humans will/are arguing with the aliens...hell we are helping them! As far as you know that last bit was a joke and you should treat it that way...we know where you are and what you are doing. ;^)

  • @DoomShepherd TOTALLY agree, And "Survivor" & any other reality tv garbage. My husband and I stopped watching tv 7 yrs ago. Cancelled our cable subscription. It's not worth it, I feel dumber after watching modern tv. What a waste. Now we just get the series we want by downloading them if available or getting them at a store. Much more satisfying and NO COMMERCIALS! Woot! Firefly was amazing, Buffy & Angel were garbage. What happened to you Joss Whedon? THIS is what you should be proud of.

  • heh ^^ you know, Fox has really received the only proper punishment for canceling a show like firefly: their name is forever tarnished. plus, with the movie getting made and all, they get to realize just what a golden goose they slaughtered. can you even imagine how much money the show would've made them, had it continued? i bet the guy who made the decision to cut it thinks about it all the time, and wonder why he was such a moron ^^

  • such a great series, HATE FOX for shutting it down

  • i always get the feeling Sean Maher was kind of the outcast in the Firefly crew...

  • Heroicaler. Yes that's a word... Now.  I love it.

  • Comment removed

  • Firefly was always cool

  • 'Joss is boss'

    lol, Damn right! XD

  • oh, this breaks my heart.

  • fox = reavers

  • This is making me want to watch the whole series again and movie! Curse college and its inevitable torture of assignments!

  • Heroiceller?

  • At least when Firefly becomes the next Star Wars, I can say: Hey, I liked Firefly BEFORE it was cool.

  • You can blame them damn reality television shows..

  • Fox = The Alliance

  • @HotFuzz456 Universal= Brown coats

  • @HotFuzz456 WRONG Fox = Blue Sun

  • @HotFuzz456 For = Reavers

  • @HotFuzz456 a lion?

  • Power to the Independents baby. Browncoats rule. Fox took the sky away from me.

  • @terryll22 no...they can take us out to the black and tell 'em we aint comin back, they can burn the land and boil the sea...but they cant take the sky from us.

  • Best show ever.

  • Aww. That was cute to see. Yes. I said "cute." Say what you will about my maturity.

  • @HaninatorForthewin your maturity is fine!

  • Yes, Fuck Fox. I hate how all these easter eggs switch between Book's first name being Meria and Derrial.

    "Okay, well, hat'd we learn today?

    *sigh* Joss is boss...."

    Heh.

  • @likebeingme: The upset towards fox (in this instance anyway) is not because of their biased, hate mongering "news", it's because they totally SCREWED Firefly. They didn't even air the 1st episode till the end, they pre-empted the show for sports crap, other episodes never aired... they never gave it a chance to get off the ground. They killed the BEST DAMN SHOW they ever had. So for all y'all saying fox SUCKS, I'm right there with ya!

  • what's all your issues with Fox? The fact that they provide a point of view that isn't liberalistic shouldn't be something that get's your panties up in a bundle.

  • @ilikebeingme Its not that we are upset at Fox because of the show, its that they canceled possibly the greatest show every created.

  • @ilikebeingme it's like this, You fid a show that really inspires you! It is well made and it is AWESOME! The chanel it was on not only didn't advertise it as it should have, but it screwed up the airing of the show and canceled it before it even had the chance it should have. (It has such a fan base now that a 'MOVIE' could be made of it with out it flopping. So what's that tell you? Fox made a mistake.) That's all they were saying. I for one miss the show and want it back.

  • more universal. and I say universal knowing we are in the universe on a spaceship and that we're doing the movie for Universal the movie company.

  • Joss: "Okay, well, what did we learn today?"

    Nathan: "Joss is boss."

    Damn right. :D

  • Browncoats will rise again!

  • @Joyride37 POWER TO THE INDEPENDANCE

  • bummer its gone

  • If Firefly can't come back, I vote that whatever series Whedon does next has the same actors and actresses in it. You can't fight good chemistry like that.

  • @ZeldaQueen64 YYYYYEEEESSSS!

  • Your hero's gonna be more...heroicaller...yes, that's a word...now...

    LOL! I love Joss Whedon!

  • I love watching the beginning of the futuram movie bender's big score where they rip on the fox executives that cancelled them, terminator the sarah connnor chronicles, and firefly, and they do it by saying that the fox executives were ground up into a little powder that can be used to treat itches in your private parts.

  • something about Joss's appearance reminds me of Homer Simpson crossed with his Mr. Sparkle counterpart.

  • BRING FIREFLY BACK!!

  • Too bad they killed off two main characters. That pretty much killed any chance of them ever making the show again (even if it was started by a different network)

  • MORE FIREFLY

  • i think the series was way better than the movie but they should just make a whole bunch of movies, each one a series. they would sell and we would get firefly :D

  • @kitxxxxxxx that would be tricky... seing as the movie made... NO MONEY!

    lol

    Dont get me wrong, I am the bigest browncoat EVER! (I have t-shirts to prove it)

    But it's just not gonna happen... The series got axed, then the movie lost them monet...

  • there were supposed to be seven season of firefly acording to Joss Wheddon and no movie to cover all the story, but the brilliant show was cancelled

  • id rather have one seasone of firefly,, one mental moment with river, one sermon from book,,one "shiny" fom kaylee,, than a lifetime without firefly.

  • I'll see you one shiny for the rest....I have a crush on Kaylee that will...for the record...be unrequited.

    "One minute was enough, Tyler said, a person had to work hard for it, but a minute of perfection was worth the effort. A moment was the most you could ever expect from perfection." ~Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club, Chapter 3

  • @brent847

    I must disagree with it. If there wasn't Firefly I would've lived happily without any thought of it. But now I CRAVE FOR MORE. It's killing me

  • this is my new favourite show WHY OH WHY dont they bring it back

  • Show needed a better network.

  • @kbrinks If then only had some Fruity Oaty Bars!

  • @kbrinks shoulda gone to universal to begin with lol

  • @kbrinks definetly, i don't get why they didn't just trust joss whedon because he knows exactly what he's doing, he knows what works, and he knows what we, the viewers like!!

  • @kbrinks Show needed a REAL network. Not a joke of a station run by inbreds and f-wits.

  • @kbrinks Show DESERVED a better network.

  • i love the show i never heard of it until my mom found it in a movie store and we fell in love with it

    but yeah fox fucked up and i want to kick their ass's serenity was meant to be season 2 of firefly but it is still beautiful

    i loves/needs it

  • No, Serenity was supposed to be a movie after the show was cancelled, just like everybody was saying in this video......
