...I think the reason I wasn't hooked from the beginning is this isn't your average sci-fi show. You have to pay attention. You have to appreciate all the detail that went in, the complete ground-up creation of an entire culture, the style of language and speaking. So much detail, from the carefully crafted sets to the intricate design of a single prop only seen for a half-second shot. Then there is the cast synergy, the real human stories and on and on.

I found myself re-watching Serenity, seeing it in an entirely new light now that I loved the show. This made me even sadder, but it's a bittersweet kind of sadness you want to experience again. You don't want to let this show go. I see clearly why there are so many attempts to preserve or continue "The 'Verse". It's attachment, emotional attachment.
