(UST you say? Hmm. And it's totally different! Because Robin Hood has . . . Anjali Jay, and . . . Harry Lloyd, and . . . I'm sure there's an argument for quality somewhere)
No, it makes sense. I like some characters more than others (Inara bores me, Jayne . . . meh, Kaylee gets progressively more annoying, and Mal's fairly stereotypical) but I guess what drew me in is the sense of family they have, and how you can tell they all care for each other in different ways. Although I never cared for Mal/Inara; between being mutually indifferent to the characters and not seeing any chemistry, I just never got invested in them. Some of the actors are better than others, too.
What about River? She's a fairly polarizing character in fandom, but you haven't mentioned what you think of her.
