They were very bad.

Firefly was fine but not nearly as good as The Internet said it was when it was cancelled.

Much like Curt Cobain, Firefly wouldn't be nearly as idolised if it hadn't ended abruptly.

I think you’re right.

Also I think a lot of the questions answered and things addressed would have become a lot less interesting after being thoroughly defined in following seasons.

The fun setting created with galactic civil war, space cowboys, space cannibals and govt conspiracies was unformed enough to have mystery and a lot of blanks filled in by viewers. Defining all of it later would remove so much of the wonder and ~potential~ the show had as everyone kind of dreamed up what they thought was best.

It was a fun show though and I watched it all more than a few times.

Fire marshal almost certainly had that barn roped off and condemned immediately after arriving on scene when the first half fell. They weren't gonna let people in to save any of it, that's what insurance is for.

The good news is that now they can start salvaging barrels that weren't destroyed in the collapse or fall. There's probably some surviving barrels in that mess somewhere.

Being Kentucky, I wonder if the solution to those barns just falling apart with time is to just move from a barn storage system to a series of empty walmarts.

thinking about how much those barrels weigh and how many are stacked in there on what is basically 80 year old wooden pallet rack it's amazing this doesn't happen more often.

I thought they'd allow salvage for a minute but thinking about it a little more it's a mountain of wood rubble and wood barrels of rocket fuel soaked in who knows how much of itself that spilled. The OSHA move is to back the gently caress up and toss some fire arrows.

In some cases, insurance or other rules from laws or regulations will prevent salvage of any of the product at all.

I've cut ties with a bunch of people, essentially did a purge of my facebook over the family separation thing. But I still have some old friends (including one who was my best man and I'm his kid's godfather) that I've been through combat with that I can't bring myself to cut off, it's regularly depressing/enraging.
