Query: How Did I Miss This?

I just learned about Firefly recently and purchased the DVD. How did I miss this when it first aired and why would a TV network cancel such an original series? Didn't the network know what they had? Firefly should have received the opportunity to build an audience based on the quality of the material. Firefly is the best written hour of TV I've seen in some time. It ranks with Deadwood and I'm amazed at how Josh Whedon has brought a western to space, with all the fun, snappy dialouge, and wit that is missing in the recent plodding Star Wars efforts. I'm in my forties and my girlfriend, who is no fan of science fiction, loves this show. I see that the series and the recent film, Serenity, are #2 an #3 on Amazon's DVD Best Sellers list. Hopefully, this will spur some network to resurect the series so more episodes can be made. This really is a gem of a series and deserves a better fate.
