minus-squarefubarx@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up101arrow-down5·2 months agoObligatory Firefly mention.
minus-squaregilokee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up44arrow-down1·2 months agoAnd if you like Firefly but know nothing about anime, then Cowboy Bebop!
minus-squareEch@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up12·2 months agoThe best two shows for fans of criminally short series.
minus-squarebiofaust@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months agoThe Cowboy Bebop live action was offensive to anyone who loves anything about the anime. The anime itself is still criminally short.
minus-squareJack@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoYeah Firefly is amazing, even for people who don’t normally like its genres. Avoid the movie Serenity tho. Occupied, a Norwegian show about Norway trying to stop being a petrostate. Already mentioned: Chernobyl, Deadwood (avoid its movie), Six Feet Under (the finale is amazing).

minus-squarekieron115@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoIt’s hard to explain without dumping some massive spoilers. Lets just say it didn’t give them the endings they deserved.
minus-squareJack@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoIf Firefly is about the little people, then Serenity is about James Bond. Lots of people liked Serenity, but I think it was like a studio-made sequel: more, bigger, more, for no good reason.
