Poetic Television Review: Objects in Space (Firefly, S1X14, 2002)

in movies •  last month 

(source: firefly.fandom.com)

In the realm of television shows,
A rarity stands, a gem that shines,
Firefly, a series of its own,
Concluding high, though prematurely withdrawn.

Objects in Space, the final act,
Aired late, before the pilot's launch,
Revealing River's psychic pact,
A power that leaves crew members fraught.

Disturbed by secrets laid bare,
Some demand her removal, a desperate prayer,
But Mal, undecided and fair,
Faces a threat from Jubal Early's stare.

A bounty hunter with skills unmatched,
Infiltrating Serenity, his mission tact,
Directed by Whedon, the creator's hand,
Co-written with Tim Minnear, a master plan.

River, the enigmatic star,
Summer Glau, a performance afar,
A mix of lunacy, sacred fool,
Ordinary woman, with a heart anew.

The confrontation, a dance of wit and steel,
River and Jubal, a duel that's real,
A Confederate general's name, an irony so stark,
Brooks, an African American, a role that's unique and stark.

The showdown, a climactic end,
A villain dispatched, a friend to amend,
Objects in Space, a testament to Firefly's might,
A cult following, a legacy that lasts through the night.
