DESCRIPTION
Fireflies Series 1 (7 Feb - 24 Jun 2004)
Set in a small country town called "Lost River", Fireflies centres on the townspeople and its rural fire brigade.
You can measure a township by the commitment of its people. Most of them are volunteers, from the fire brigade to the CWA. Whether you're new in town, or here for generations, when you're facing the driest hottest summer in decades, it pays to belong.
ABC Head of Drama & Narrative Comedy, Robyn Kershaw, says the series reflects the reality of danger facing many Australians each year.
"Fireflies is a story drawn from the reality faced by hundreds of towns throughout Australia. We're thrilled to have attracted such tremendous actors to express and pay tribute to the lives of thousands of unsung Australian heroes," said Kershaw.
Producer, John Edwards, says Fireflies is a character-driven show filled with heart and action.
“What Police Rescue was for the ‘80’s and ‘90’s, this will be for the new century,” said Edwards.
Okay, well that didn't work out with only one series being made. I've heard reports of a rampant dispute between Jeremy Sims and the ABC. The lack of a DVD for fifteen years and the way the series wrapped up with two episodes airing in the final week seem to indicate different treatment for this programme than all others.
