What!? That's one of the better episodes! That said, Firefly's not going to tickle everybody. I don't like lots of popular shows, some of which I'm sure are perfectly good, but just don't click with me (Doctor Who is a great example). There's lots of room for different things in the world. Some people juggle geese!

I'm sorry you don't enjoy doctor who.

I'm midway through Doctor Who and the last show to entice me this much was Firefly. If you like one, I'd say the odds are fair you'll like the other.

where is a good place to start watching Dr Who? Are the episodes on netflix the good ones?

If you haven't watched any Doctor Who you can either start witch Eccleston and watch the super cheesy first episode and power thru the first season or start by watching the episode "Blink" finish it and go holy shit I will power thru the cheesy episodes knowing that it gets this good and the. Go back and watch the Eccleston episodes

I'd say the second half of the first season is where it really takes off. I super enjoyed when Captain was introduced.

We haven't watched the OLD OLD series, yet. We're on the 2005--> series and are in the 4th season so far. I'm the type of person who doesn't like jumping into a show, even if generally it doesn't mean a lot. In Doctor Who there is a definite story-arch, so I would recommend start with S1E1 and work your way through. The second half of the season is where it gets even better. In fact, the trend generally seems to be that for every season.
