It's with a sense of satisfaction that I finish reviewing the episodes of "Firefly" in the order that Joss intended them to be seen in. And yet, I'm also reliving the bitterness that comes every time this excellent episode ends and I realize that there could and should have been so much more. I take some comfort in the fact that "Serenity" is only weeks away, of course, and if the series had to end, this was the right place for it. But I still can't help but think of what might have been.

Here's my review for Firefly 1.14: "Objects in Space":

Overall, this episode is a nearly perfect combination of genre elements and philosophy on the nature of things. Operating on several levels in terms of the storytelling, this is exactly what “Firefly” was meant to be. Fitting, then, that it serves as the premature end to the series. One would expect the film “Serenity” to follow in these footsteps.
