''[['''Firefly]]''''' is a [[Science Fiction]] [[Space Western]] that ran for four months on the [[FOX]] Network in 2002. It was cancelled after 14 episodes were produced; only 11 were aired, partly in thanks to a severe case of [[Executive Meddling]]. Its quick cancellation helped give rise to [[The Firefly Effect]]. A DVD boxed set was released in December 2003 and has sold briskly ever since. A feature-[[Film]] continuation, ''[[Serenity]]'', was released in October 2005 to critical acclaim. Unfortunately the [[film]]'s box-office performance was mediocre, barely covering its costs, which probably dooms the idea of further movies.
 
In the future, humanity has spread across the stars, terraforming planets for colonisation and creating a new frontier reminiscent of the old Wild West. The dominant power in this time is the monolithic Alliance, whose iron grip on the universe has only tightened following a successful military victory against the rebellious Browncoats of the frontier planets.
