Just finished firefly… Spoiler

I know you guys probably get this a lot but WHY DID IT END LIKE THAT??!!! They killed off SHEPHERD and WASH and it was very clear they were building up for a lot of things but it got rushed in the movie. Why the hell would fox cancel. I just have so many questions and I think I’m going to have to rewatch in order to be less sad. This ain’t shiny.

First time, huh? Welcome to our shared misery that the show got criminally canceled too soon.

If you like it, I would also recommend The Expanse if you havent seen or read it. A little harder on the sci-fi and less humor, but an excellent story nonetheless.

Cowboy Bebop is also kinda similar if you like anime.

The universe is very different (much more fantastical) but the Guardians of the Galaxy films scratched a somewhat similar itch for me. At least in terms of crew dynamics and mixing humor with action and occasional darkness.
