Firefly Day is celebrated every April 24. Firefly is an American science-fiction television series that was broadcast from 2002 to 2003, created by writer and director Joss Whedon. The series is all about adventures experienced by the crew of nine characters in the Firefly-class spaceship Serenity. The series is set in 2517, in which the show exhibits both the past and future. According to the series, only the United States and China will survive in that future, forming an alliance that will result in the fusion of two cultures. The show quickly gained many followers all around Canada and the United States. However, FOX canceled the series after the release of its 11 episodes. An unsuccessful campaign called Firefly Immediate Assistance’ was formed by the fans to pick up the canceled show. This led to the release of the series on DVDs in December 2003. Later, in 2005, a movie called Serenity was released as a continuation of the series, which was not a great success. On Firefly Day, people are encouraged by fans of the series to binge-watch all the 11 episodes and the film.
“Time for some thrillin heroics.”- Joss Whedon
