I've been periodically tracking the DVD ranking and reviews on Amazon since getting the boxed set and becoming re-hooked. Here's some fun with numbers.

425 reviews - 5 star average ranking
22 - 4 star reviews
2 - 3 star reviews (all written before DVD release)
3 - 2 star reviews (all written before DVD release)
6 - 1 star reviews (only one written after DVD release)

Wow! Just proving what everyone keeps repeating on these boards - all you have to do to hook someone on Firefly is get them to watch the show (in the correct order, that is).

Agreed.

Thanksgiving is a sham. But it's a sham with yams...it's a yam sham.

What's odd is that people will actually buy the series after only seeing the reviews. Two people that I know of, one on Amazon and one here, had never heard of the series yet bought it because of the reviews. I personally would never do that, because idiotic newspaper reviewers have disillusioned me.

Yeah, but newspaper reviewers are much different than fan reviews. I did the same thing right after the release of the series to DVD. I never even heard of the show on TV, but after I read the first few reviews I bought the set and loved it! The same with Buffy and Angel shows, I never watched them on tv (still don't) and I'm caught up on all the seasons released so far and I'm hooked!
