It's a western in space done by the guy who created Buffy the Vampire Slayer. That's the core of it, and should tell you a lot.
The crew of the spaceship Serenity (the ship's model designation is "Firefly") has a trail boss, some gunslingers, a preacher, a doctor, and a whore with a heart of gold. They're carrying psychic weight from the recent civil war, they all have history that's coming out bit by bit, they're people you'd actually want to know - and almost all of them are adults.
Part of the crew is wanted by the authorities, one of the passengers is a semi-psychic genius, and there are other plot complications a-comin'. But they're not that important. The writing is sharp, and the show is simply fun.
