I think one of the reasons BUFFY became so popular was the theme song. It rocked and maybe made people who wouldn't have been interested tune in out of curiosity.

I don't dislike Fireflys theme. (I find it going through my head while I'm at work.) But I think it's to slow and mellow. It makes you want to take a nap.

The flavor of this show requires a song that's a hybrid of rock and country. Here's my suggestion:

An instumental version of Steve Earle's "Copperhead Road".

If you've never heard it, check it out.

I disagree! I love the themesong for Firefly, and think it captures the essence of the show quite well. I also catch myself singing it to myself at work quite a bit. On a side note, my wife, who is now also an avid follower of the show, was originally lured by the theme song. She fell in love with the song and stuck around to watch an episode.

As always, just my opinion.

I concur wholeheartedly! The more I watch the show, the more I like the song.

I like the theme song now, but only because it has grown on me. When I first heard it, I hated it so much that I almost turned the channel. I'm glad I didn't.

The first time I heard the song, I wasn't sure. But now I LOVE it. I don't think it should change.

Warrick: You didn't have to wound that man.
Mal: Yeah, I know. It was just funny.

I think all three Mutant Enemy shows have awesome theme songs, but I don't think that most people watch shows just for their theme songs. Although this is kind of harsh, I see the suggestion of a new theme as a sort of betrayal.

Sorry, I love the song. Even downloaded it. And it fits the whole idea of Firefly well.

i like the theme song, actually. it was hard at first but now it's pretty catchy i guess because it's sort of western-style and that made it become a turn-off for some people their problem.

I have to agree--I love the themesong. In fact, I'd go so far as to say the first time I watched FF the theme song is what sold me completely.

I loved the theme song as soon as I heard it. I think it's very appropriate. It fits the show quite well in my opinion. I imagine that the song is indicative of how the crew of the Serenity especially the captain may feel.
