Well, it died due to network fuckery, however it is my opinion the Whedon would have ruined it, given enough time. I would have liked to have more, but perhaps it’s a blessing in disguise that it ended when it did.
I don't get what people think they want out of Firefly. It absolutely would have fallen apart in another half season. They were already doing call-back episodes and shrinking the world in the one season they got.
I've only ever seen two opinions on Firefly: it had 3-4 good episodes and a lot of filler. Or it was 100% bangers. I'm in the second camp (Shindig being one of my favorites). It's basically an exceptional mini-series that the showrunner wasn't given a chance to ruin. I'm very happy with that.
I was so pissed when they canceled and made that shitty movie instead of season three of TTSC! Heck I’ve seen all the other movies and I still haven’t seen that one. Every time I go to watch it I just get mad all over again at what was stolen from us.
Was Firefly ruined, or did it simply die? Perhaps before its time, but I'm not sure it ever lived long enough to become the villain.
