Watch the pilot, Serenity. It's a 2h pilot but actually runs 1h26 minutes. If after watching that you think it's the sort of show you might like, watch the rest. It peaks around episodes 5-10 as you get to know the characters better IMO but the pilot is nevertheless a pretty solid representation of the show overall.

EDIT: I just realized this might cause confusion. The pilot (S1E1) is called Serenity. The movie from 2006, which takes place AFTER the show, is also called Serenity. You're looking for the former, not the latter... You wouldn't want to watch the movie before the show, probably.

That was kinda dumb of Whedon in retrospect.
