Teppy's eh is mine. I also just don't think it is possible or fair to compare a 13/16 episode run to either a 144 episode run, or a 110 (?) episode run. I can group 13/16 episodes of both BtVS and Angel (separately, and maybe multiple times) that (I think, anyhow) left the run of Firefly in the dust. It was mostly canceled due to poor luck in scheduling, and te fact that FOX may be defined as: "FOX comma crazy like a." But I think it was also canceled because it failed to draw in almost anyone who wasn't already a Joss Whedon/Tim Minear devotee.
I fed off a flowerperson, and I spent the next six hours watchin' my hand move.

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

To be fair, my "eh" was because I just don't think FF is all that, which is why I don't think it has a high batting average (but in cricket).

That's sort of my eh too Teppy, but in a more roundabout way. I was terribly excited for Firefly. I was terribly disappointed when it was canned (and I think that was premature, given the pap they put on in its place). But I fell out of love. I mourn the lost opportunity of Wonderfalls way more than I mourn Firefly, and I only saw 4 episodes of that.

My reaction, conversely, was 'guh'. But YMMV.

Well, in terms of Firefly opinions, I think the delegation from the Land of Feh is much much much smaller than the population of the Metropolis of Guh. (Or even the Country of Squee!)

At least round these parts. Rest of the world? Probably nsm (more's the shame).

Actually, I think the rest of the world mainly lives in the Kingdom of What's That, Some Television Show?
