Don't buy the Firefly DVDs if you like the kind of science fiction
that's based on at least a minimum of science ideas or a minimum of
technology ideas. Firefly makes no pretense and I mean absolutely no
pretense of having some kind of grounding in the idea-driven SF
classics, the kind written by Asimov, Clarke or Heinlein, or by any
author who got printed by Astounding/Analog or Galaxy.
A friend of mine recommended the series, and there were rave reviews
all over the Web. I bought all of the DVDs based on those
recomendations. I watcehd each eapisode, with no distractions, so I
know what I'm talking about.
And yeah, it's also rotten if you're interested in the way SF portrays
interfaces of the future.
