So, I see that many of you are in "winter" mode, not much riding, more talks about movies and such...
I know it's old and it might have been covered previously, but if you are looking to spend some good quality time in front of the box, may I suggest the whole season of Firefly (it's only 14 episodes)?
Those who saw this before will surely agree, and if you have never seen this....
... run, don't walk, to rent, borrow or steal the dvd boxset and enjoy this with a warm cup of coffee, tea or... beer!
It's THAT good... and quite fitting to the mindset of most around this forum, I gather from the post I am seeing here.
Enjoy, and happy holidays!

I second the motion. If you like scifi it was an excellent show. The movie is not bad, either.

I agree its a very unknown very good series. And the best line in the movie was "it be nice to have some grenades here!!"

Watching the series also makes the movie "Serenity" make more sense.

My favorite quote is: "Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back!" from Our Mrs. Reynolds And this thing was a sci-fi, yes, but with a western (as in cowboys) attitude! Sounds like a very strange match but it works!

One of my favorites. I just finished watching the series completely through for the third time. It's amazing how great minds think alike.

I have it on DVD. I suppose I'm going to have to update to Blu-Ray.

I am in the process of watching it for the 4th time. I would say firefly is the best ensemble cast TV show I have ever seen, with a lot of different story plots going on at the same time. One of my favorite plot lines is the on going education of Jane, or should I say the very slow evolution of Jane. If you watch the show you will understand what I am talking about.

Loved that show. Too bad it was short lived.
