don't fear the reaver

Since I've been geeking out about "Serenity" lately, I figure it'd be good if you, the (presumably) unitiated, knew what it was all about. Here's the best description of the show I've seen:

What’s it about? Well, its main “gimmick” is that it’s a Western set in space, but that doesn’t tell you much. Imagine the Star Wars universe but grittier, with lower tech, better dialogue, and no aliens, plus the Rebellion is over and it failed. A more embittered Han Solo is still flying his second-hand spaceship around the Outer Rim, taking ethically questionable assignments, dodging bullets, and trying to avoid imperial entanglements. Oh yeah, and cursing in Chinese. Plus Princess Leia is a psychotic teenager who can kill you with her brain.

It's really good.
