I love Firefly. however, I give a slight edge to Battlestar. I think the character development is better as is the story (due to volume of episodes). It has everything FF has except the humor. Great acting, effects, drama etc....What do y'all think?

Not a fair comparison. Battlestar Galactica has more content to work off of. What's the matter with you boy? This thread deserves to be put straight into Troll country. But to be fair and answer your ill thought out question, I will pick Firefly.

That's a hard one. BSG is really good and I enjoy it a lot. I can't WAIT until October (if I'm still alive) to watch season 3, but Firefly is also good, and I would feel like I'm a total sellout if I didn't pick FF over BSG so I pick Firefly as the best.

Something about this site that forces double posts. I erased. Sorry.

The very tiny amount that I have seen of the new Battlestar suggests that I should definately see more. In a perfect universe I wouldn't have to choose. My tentative decision, based on admitadly incomplete information suggests that both the incomplete Firefly and the continuing BSG are wothy of praise. It's a 1-1 tie with no penalty kick nonsense as far as I'm concerned.

I love them both.

Sometimes I in the mood for something on the lighter side then watching all of humanity cling to life.

I love both shows. Both are sci-fi with a twist of realism. But I'm going to have to say that Firefly is my favorite of the two.
