Is there an antonym for favorite? I can't think of it.

If you have to pick the episode you liked least which would it be?

I would have to pick Our Mrs. Reynolds. I think the idea of Mal married just put me off. Then the Inara/Saffron scene was something I did not want to see, personally. Though I do like the fact that Inara kissed Mal and that is how he got sick.

So what about you?

Shindig by a long shot however I'm biased because I think Inara is the weakest character.
OMR was brilliant!!

My least favorite episode (not saying that I still didn't love it like all the others) would also have to be Our Mrs. Reynolds. It could be that it just didn’t have enough Simon in it, but I think it really is because it was just too much about Saffron and Mal. I feel that the other characters were left out. Well, now that I think about it, it just didn’t have enough Simon. Since all of the episodes are so wonderful the little bit of Simon-less-ness tipped the scale.

I'd say The Train Job. It wasn't really bad, but the explanations they had to cram in due to it being a replacement pilot sort of hurt the episode.

My least favorite is Jaynestown. Pacing seems off to me.

Objects in Space was my least favorite episode. It only helped develop River's character for us -- we already knew Mal and Inara have tension, we already knew that Jayne recognizes that Mal is the alpha male, we already knew that everyone likes River, we already knew that Kaylee is not a toughgirl, we already knew that Wash and Zoe are passionately in love, we already knew Simon would give his life for River, we already knew River is brilliant and we knew that Book is not only a Shepherd. I could keep going. There was just too much about Early. Since they had already decided to cancel the show, I would have liked to see one of the other episodes Fox purchased -- at least if they develop the characters' depth some more, like it seems to me that Heart of Gold could have done. (I also admit that the scene with the Captain mostly uncovered would definitely get my undivided attention.)

I did enjoy seeing Kaylee work up the nerve to do what was needed, and seeing Mal's expression when River said "Don't make faces", but the constant "Does that seem right to you?" was flat.

My least favorite would be Train Job followed by Shindig. I watched Train Job once on videocassette and haven't watched it since; Shindig just seemed like an excuse to put Mal in a pretty shirt and see him show his love for Inara. *yawn* That could have been done in so many better ways.

Ya know, come to think of it, in OiS was River to coherent at the end and too sane for too long? It might be me, but I think it was too neat. I could see her saving the day, but to be suddenly sane,"My brother takes so much looking after" It seemed off to me.

Something that's bothered me since the time I watched it on TV.

I think mine may be a little out of step with some but I'd have to say least favorites are either Safe or Shindig. Safe seemed like the only episode chiefly intended as character developement. Not quite as compelling as most on a story level. Some great new pieces of info though. Nice piece of intrigue added to Book's character.
