IMO, it is worth watching.

But the reasons Tabby recommends for not watching it (the Lost Cause, colonalism, orientalism) plus were they were going with Inara, and the internet falling out of love with Joss are all valid, and were made at the time.
Plus Adam Baldwin.... And the Wheedonisms.

I still quote it occasionally.

I didn't like it the first time I saw The Train Job. (the network mandated pilot, Out Of Gas is Joss' preferred if I recall.

If you can deal with the meta aspects, and you love Buffy, I'd give it a shot. It's only a 14 episodes and a movie. And it is very Joss.
And it's way, way better than Dollhouse.

But, I have a Firefly T-shirt, and we were so starved for SF back in the day.
