Agreed. Firefly may have grown into being one of the best, based on the quality of its 14 episodes, but we'll never know. Whedon can be great, but he's also very uneven, not to mention he's more than capable of getting bored and letting his creations go to ruin (e.g. Buffy S6 & S7, and we won't even get into the comics). What we do have is pretty awesome, but still just set-up.

To the people dissing Babylon 5--up until about six months ago, I was one of you. It took me six years and about four tries to get through S1. This last time I stuck with it though, and after a certain point, I found myself compulsively watching episode after episode. I still didn't think it was that great, but I needed to know what happened next. By S3, everything had just clicked into place and I couldn't believe how good it was. It's got some huge flaws, but it's also the only series of its length I've ever seen where the mystery-arc actually played out in such a logical beginning, middle and end. It really is like watching a televisual novel play out, even with the relatively awkward S5.

I don't blame anyone who can't get past the dodgy effects, sometimes cheesy dialogue and rather static visuals, but this series was truly groundbreaking for its time and in some ways remains unsurpassed.
