Serenity Now

Whereas the crew of Enterprise was perhaps a little square in their color-coded jumpsuits, the stars of Serenity are greasy space cowboys on the run from a totalitarian intergalactic authority, the Alliance, that is very much unlike the socialist, peaceable Federation in Star Trek. The fringes of the Alliance are a lawless frontier, where the crew has to dodge an assassin and then comes across a planet with perfectly preserved cities and corpses. It’s a trip.
