You may want to make a distinction between the order in which they were actually shown and the order in which they were supposed to be shown. If someone reads this in 10 years and tries to track down some tapes, they will probably want the planned order rather than the aired order.

Sould we add the order the episodes were shown in different countries?

i think all the episodes should be called "Title (Firefly episode)"... - Xornok 20:12, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
OK, the episode summaries aren't supposed to be full out summaries of the episode. They are just supposed to reveal the base info of the ep without revealing the ending, in one, maybe two sentences. See List of South Park episodes for examples of what the summaries should look like. JQF 15:06, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
The lack of a spoiler policy is not supposed to be a Griefer policy. A short episode summary should not give away the ending or important plot details anymore than the intro the article for the Crying Game or The Usual Suspects should give away the twists in those stories. Since we are lucky enough to have articles for each individual episodes - they haven't been removed by deletionists. (I think at one point Stargate had two episode lists, one with only short summaries, one with longer spoiler summaries since most episodes didn't have their own article.) The details belong in the episode articles should more than satisfy any reasonable completionist(sp?) editor. -- Horkana ( talk) 22:36, 3 November 2009 (UTC) --atrocious spelling and grammar corrected, 26 Jan 2010
Should the Broadcast information be moved about the Episode list? It seems to me to be a better place for it, but I'm sure it would work. JQF 18:07, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
There is discussion at WP:AN/I#Fancruft_issue_again, and an AfD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kept Man that is attempting to create a precedent disallowing individual episodes. - Peregrine Fisher 18:09, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

The image Image:FireflyPoster.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

The main article includes a broadcast history section and a table does seem to be the best way to show the messed up broadcast order compared to the intended production order. Should this section be removed from here since it is redundant and not worth the work of cleanup? -- Horkana ( talk) 22:41, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
It's becoming more common practice to not have list of episodes pages for television shows with just one season, unless the article is quite expansive, containing more information than is already on the main article. All that would need be merged is the episode list, likely to the broadcast history section, replacing the smaller table already in place. Thoughts? Drovethrughosts ( talk) 21:33, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
I also agree about the merge. Not a lot of content in this article besides the episode table and the brief description about the broadcast history which can perfectly be moved to the main article. QuasyBoy (talk) 07:19, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
