Review

For anyone of the "Firefly" persuasion you are in for a treat! ABC realized what a gem they had in Nathan Fillion when he did his guest stint on Desperate Housewives and they quickly got their act together and gave him a series! In other words Nathan is back!! ) This series has a great start to it with a strong ensemble cast that brings out a great multidimensional quality to the show. It is clever and sarcastic humor reigns. The plot of the pilot was your typical Crime Investigation approach but it is the delivery of this fine cast that breaks it apart from other shows. With that being said I hope that they do develop the story lines a bit better in the future but no matter what happens this show is a joy to watch simply because of the cast...especially Nathan Fillion. This character is very much like Mal Reynolds in Firefly and that is what brought me to this show. The rest of the cast and the great delivery is what will keep me with this show!! Well done ABC!!
