Firefly

The Science Channel is rerunning the Joss Whedon SF series called Firefly. Other than their absolutely bogus identification of the episodes as "new," I support rerunning this excellent piece of "western set in the future."

Firefly is in many ways a cross between Gunsmoke and Wagon Train. The ship's captain is played by Nathan Fillion who even looks something like James Arness.

If you haven't seen Firefly, give it a look. BTW, the entire series is available as a boxed set of DVDs.
