I loved the show. I don't even like TV. It was corny, and for all sorts of reasons I shouldn't have cared, but for some reason it struck a chord, and the story resonated with me.
I love Science Fiction, and freedom, and the story was about desperately struggling against a totalitarian empire. Plus it had cowboys, guns, and beautiful women. How can you not like cowboys in space with beautiful women outsmarting diabolical imperial enemies?
For reasons that had nothing to do with the content of the show, it barely completed one season, and a wrap up movie, 'Serenity'. The industry Joss Whedon, cast, and crew had to work within to create the show doomed it from the start.
Sad.
