I never watched many episodes of the show. Only a few and I honestly don't remember their plot or much about it. I do remember enjoying it and the general demeanor of the characters, concept of the show and the whole "Fire guy is bad" bit.

Going into the movie without the bias of knowing the source material, I'm thinking I might not dislike it so much. It seems that most of the criticisms I've seen are based around its butchering of the source material. We'll have to see.
