HOT GALLERY: The Stars of the Cult-Favorite Series Firefly, Then and Now
It’s better to have lost and loved than never to have loved a brilliant, genre-bending, beautifully written show at all. Joss Whedon’s scifi-Western Firefly lasted less than a season on Fox, but its impact has far outlived the series. The cast reunited briefly in 2005 for the movie Serenity, but for devoted fans—like us—there just wasn’t enough of what was, for a time, the smartest, most original show on television.

Baldwin—who had a long list of credits before Firefly, including Full Metal Jacket and The X-Files—has remained busy, starring and guesting in shows from Stargate SG-1 and Angel to CSI: NY and the much-beloved Chuck, which, unlike Firefly, survived its initial shaky ratings. Baldwin recently made a guest-appearance on his old costar Nathan Fillion’s hit show Castle, a reunion he said was “just like putting on a pair of old boots or a nice, warm coat.”
