The first season of Firefly set up several plot threads that presumably would have lead to major events: River's psychic abilities, Book's mysterious past, the Blue Sun corporation, and so on.

Episodes

The season was aired out of the produced story boarded order on FOX, which commonly occurs on the network. The story order basically was the order the episodes were produced in. This is the order that reruns are shown in and the DVD was produced in.
