We need to get Firefly further up in this poll - it's started to be trounced slightly by Buffy, which is, as we all know, ridiculous. Ever since Whedonesque got a hold of it, Buffy fans have been pouring in.

Buffy's a great show too. Not as good as Firefly of course, but in this particular case I don't see any losers, since it's all Joss.

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


Voted for Firefly!

Voted Firefly, and commented on Whedonesque as well. My reasoning is, Firefly was as good as Buffy,
and did it in less than one Season!

I wont be surprised if we get beat by Buffy, but less folks know about us. -And it's all Family, anyway .

Buffy's a good show, that was FAR more popular. It leading in the polls seems only logical.

It is a bit surprising, though, that we've got 40% of the vote so far, as opposed to Buffy's 47%.

My votes in. Of course it was for "Our good girl".
I feel there is absolutely no comparison.

Alot of young people have been turned onto Buffy since "Twighlight" became so big...maybe same young people will be turned onto Firefly once their Whedon addiction grows....and then we'll be back in business.

I of course voted for Firefly. I have tried several times to watch both Buffy and Angel and I have just not been able to get into them like I did Firefly. From what I have seen of all the shows, Firefly is hands down the best.

Even though I made the earlier comment about Buffy being a great show too, I also cast my vote for Firefly. I think it is not only Joss' best, but the best tv show I've ever seen, in spite of its tragically short run.

I never watched Buffy or Angel until after I fell in love with Firefly, but I figured it would be interesting to see where Joss (and his stable of fellow writers and directors) developed their craft. I have never regretted that decision, and now own all of Joss' tv output on dvd to date, and will purchase Dollhouse as well.

Here's how I would rank his work:

Firefly
Angel
Buffy
Dr. Horrible
Dollhouse
