It is indeed Early. If you listen to the commentary for OIS, Joss states clearly that it is Early's voice we hear. You'll also notice that River sleeps through the other voices but snaps awake at Early's voice.



the reason she snaps awake at the sound of Early's voice and only the sound of Early's voice is because the rest of the murmurs are of the crew on the ship - people who she's familiar with (her family). Early is the one who is not familiar.

keep flying under the radar, travelers!!!

Yeah! There are Blue Sun things everywhere! It took me three viewings of the First Episode to notice the massive Blue Sun crates in the background when the police check Nathan and pals out just after they've come out of the thieves den.

That made me slap my forehead, and go "Ohhhhh."
I must have watched that bit twenty times, trying to figure it out.

Anyone else notice the Serenity 'movie logo' appears to be a necklace Inara wore?

Other cameos: in HoG the madame is played by the same actress who was a pro dominatrix on CSI.

There're some really obvious things that I don't know why I didn't notice before... But the thing is, I keep noticing more and more details every time I rewatch a given episode.

Anyway, here are a couple:

- In Serenity: during the battle, it wasn't until the second or third viewing of it that I saw the little scene where Mal kisses the cross on his necklace before running out.
- In War Stories: I always thought Niska was killed during the fight... that "I wish I'd killed that bastard" line afterwards didn't tip me off enough until the second time I watched it.

Those're the only two that come to mind at the moment. I'm gonna have to watch for the Hans Solo figure next time. KF

Serenity - Wash holding the imaginery throttle after the Reaver chase scene.

Trash - When Mal's talking to YoSafBridg on the way to the drop point, you can totally see her sneak Mal's gun out of his holster.

Objects in Space - The fact that River reads everyone's mind, except Kaylee's.

There are other things too, I just can't think of them.
Stuff I have yet to spot:
Early's ship in Trash. Apparently you can see it from the window of the the floating island.

I noticed that in the episode "Shindig" when the crew was passing that store window with all the women showing off the store dresses, I noticed that the street-shot with the buildings in the background, was the exact shot (just dressed up a little) that they used in the movie Starship Troopers.

I also noticed in "The Train Robbery" The uniforms that those soldiers were wearing in that one railcar where the medicine was, just happen to be exactly the same uniforms the soldiers wore in the movie Starship troopers.

Also, in the episode called "Trash", where they showed one of the floating homes, I couldnt help noticing that one of the ships flying in the background was an SR71 Blackbird spy plane.
