Ooo, my first post and it gets to be an awesome topic like this!

Most of my favorites have already been mentioned (dinner scenes, arguing, apple chasing).

Others include

*teasing Jayne about his brain's ability - "Might break something" (Message), "How did your brain ever learn human speech?" (Ois)
*teasing Mal about his wife
*Jayne and Book's conversation during the message, about Jayne's lifestyle and reaction to death (<--LOVE this introspective-Jayne moment)
*Mal's "I'm the dad and I say so" moments "Might not want to take it as a suggestion"

I never thought about it as a family show, but reading this post, it definitely has some really great family moments.

"How's about we move away from this eerie-ass piece of work, and get on with our increasingly eerie-ass day. How's that?" ~Jayne

A little bitty one in Ariel - when the group returns to the ship and Mal is chatting with Inara, and he grabs Kaylee in a sorta reverse hug thing. Very sweet, and, from what I understand, unscripted.

It's getting very, very crowded ...

I love any of the ones that have already gone, plus, where Inara lays Kaylee's head on her shoulder in "The Message" just after Simon put his foot n his mouth again!

NO POWER IN THE 'VERS CAN STOP ME!

One of my favorite moments is the discussion concerning the Reaver booby trap in Bushwhacked. The expression on Wash's face are just priceless. My favorite is after Kaylee's line about if she's wrong Mal won't be around to yell at her. Wash's expression is hysterical!

I dont think anyones noticed this one and its better then anyones elses i think .

its a hard one to notice like it doesnt just stick out into your face and if your not concentrating youll miss it but its on the first episode

ok kaylee gets shot and all the crew except for shepherd and the fed are in the medical room . and as the camera pans out for a second or 2 you see jayne crouched down like a little worried child rocking waiting anxiously to see if kaylees alright .
Thats why seconds later when mel goes to look in the box rivers in and simon follows jayne jumps up behind simon with his arms around his throat cause he plans on killing him blaming him for kaylee he doesnt belive will pull through.

You can say jayne is a pretty static character but this 2-3 seconds of footage shows that jayne is much more dynamic then that it shows hes not selfish he cares for itleast one other person on serenity and that he does have a thing for kaylee and gives reason for his deep intimacy for simon since kaylee is so in love with simon

My favorite family moment is on Serenity when Mal and Kaylee are talking during her recovery.

"Yeah....That went well." -Mal

Other than those mentioned...

One of my favs is when Wash gives a downtrodden Kaylee the support she needs, just 'cause he knows she needs it.

K: Wash, tell me I'm pretty.
W: Were I unwed, I would take you in a manly fashion.
K: 'Cause I'm pretty?
W: 'Cause you're pretty.

From the deleted scenes, from OMR.
River, speaking of Saffron.

"She's a thief and a liar, and no good will come of her."

You bet she knew.
