According to cinescape.com in the following article:

Firefly - The Complete Series is nominated for "Best DVD Television Release" for the upcoming Saturn Awards. It's competitors include:

- Battlestar Galactica - The Complete Epic Series
- Hercules: The Legendary Adventures - Seasons 1 & 2
- Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Season 1-7
- Steven Spielburg Presents Taken
- Wiseguy, Season 1, Part 1-2

The only competitor I'd guess would be Taken and possibly the original BSG. I hope I hope Firefly wins this year!

DS9 has a good chance.

Personally, I'd prefer for Firefly to win.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Good news indeed.

It would be great if FF could take home the award.

Shut your mouth, boy! How could you even /not/ consider Firefly?

(Steven Spielberg's got everything he needs already!)

It's indeed good news. Nothing in that list compares with Firefly. But you can never account for the lousy taste of the general public. I can just see something lame like Hercules winning. I can picture the news report. "The downtown area was closed tonight due to an unknown maniac lighting fires throughout the city. Riots ensued when those complaining of the fires found out that Firefly didn't win the Saturn awards... Well, these things happen."

I agree with Maniac'. Too bad Babylon 5 isn't in the running, but Firefly's got the other shows beat hands down. DS9 is the best of the Star Trek franchise, it's the only one I own on DVD, and that's a formidable opponent in sheer force of votes. Steven Spielberg, and I respect and enjoy his works, might as well be a cult all unto himself where another force of votes contributes. Me myself, since Firefly premiered a year and a half ago has rendered all of these other shows, even B5, cheesy and overly or underacted. Joss Whedon has become the new Spielberg. Let the riots begin.

Quite a set of shows, DS9 is the real tough one to beat in my opinion. Much like going up against the alliance!

That being said, Speilberg needs no more cudos

GO FIREFLY!!!
