I'm very much in the nay-sayers brigade when it comes to Firefly.
My problem with Firefly is that it was really, really derivative. I tried watching the series (three times!). And it doesn't matter. Within 10 minutes, I knew how whatever episode I was watching was going to end. Every single episode I saw on that series I had seen in earlier (and in some cases much cheesier) scifi series before it.
*meh*
And, I hate to say, but the Browncoats? Made me like the series even less. (My least favorite memory is a Browncoat telling me that I was *obviously* too narrow-minded for not loving all things Firefly.)
That said, I have many friends who are died-in-the-wool Browncoats. I don't hold their obvious insanity against them. [j/k!! j/k!!]
My Browncoat friends and I have gone down the live and let live route. They can watch their DVDs and write fanfiction to their heart's content. They don't make me watch the DVDs or read the fanfic.

And thus, world peace was achieved. *grins*
