Well their all my favorite but I would say "Mrs. Reynolds" seeing Mal but naked in the middle of the desert. All I can say is WOW, NICE, OH MY GOODNESS. Sorry got a little excited there for a moment.
Always Remember "The Litany Of Fear"

That scene is actually from Trash, when Saffron returns later.
Our Mrs. Reynolds is my favorite episode. The entire first half is hilarious, I cannot stop laughing when I watch it. "Isn't that....special." I like Heart of Gold as well, good action plus I think Melinda Clarke is hawt. My least favorite would probably be Bushwhacked, it just doesn't do anything for me. There aren't really any funny moments except when Wash is talking to the Commander and I'm all about the funny. Jaynestown ranks right up there too, but only because Jayne is my favorite character. I'll stop rambling now, I watch this show too much.
"That's why I never kiss 'em on the mouth." lol
"Jayne's a girl's name."

Hmm...
I love them all, but for my absolute favorite, I'm torn between "Objects in Space" and "Ariel".

I've only recently completed seeing all the episodes. They are all great, so picking a favorite episode is hard. Picking a favorite "scene" is a lot easier for me though. That would be the last scene, scene 18 on the DVD, of Serenity the pilot. About 10 minutes starting with with Simon trying to stop the layman from taking away River, and running to the end of the episode. I've seen this one about a dozen times so far.
It has just about everything that makes Firefly so good, and by itself would make a great introduction to the show. All the characters have important parts that are played well. Fast paced action, humor, slow beautiful moments. And Serenity herself is shown off at her best.
Some of my favorite bits, rouphly in order... Mal, Jayne and Zoe galloping back to the ship on horses, in a scifi show 
I think the look of the spaceship chase is terrific, especially with the handheld camera look of the rest of the show; one of the best chases I have seen.
Mal taking out the lawmen; so fast and cold, and the camera shifting around to each one in the bay and capturing their reaction.
Wash bordering on panic while on the ground ("where are you guys?"), but calm and cool once in the air.
Kaylee tells Jayne to open a box to cut the port engine hydraulics and says "now it's simple", and the look on Jayne's face when he sees what is inside the box. Jayne is the master of funny facial expressions.
The whole scene between Shephard and Inara, with the crisis of conscious. And I always love the rich saturated colors of scenes with Inara.
And of course the scene with River and Simon... "I didn't think you would come back for me." "Well you're a dummy". Both parts played to beautiful perfection. Such a simple, yet so beautiful exchange. Then again, every scene with River in it is terrific.
And let's not forget the music. The musical transition from the River/Simon scene to Jayne telling Mal that the girl is trouble is just terrific.
And finally of course, the scene where Mal says it's been a good day, Simon points out all the potentially disastrous things that have happened that day, and Mal saying "but we're still flying".
Well... I guess maybe my enthusiasm for this particular part is showing...

War Stories - Zoe in charge, Mal and Wash's dialogue, "shoulda, woulda, coulda", Book kicking ass, River kicking ass, Simon trying to kick ass, everyone going to get their captain....
Our Mrs. Reynolds - non stop great lines, the scene in the cargo bay - HI-larious
Out of Gas - loved the flashbacks
Serenity I, II - great pilot (lucky me, I saw it before Train Job)
Of course, these are the episodes I watched most recently, the list could change after i watch the rest again!
so hard to choose

Our Mrs Reynolds, just because it was very funny and Saffron was my favorite guest character.
Has to be said that Out of Gas and Ariel are also fantastic.

I guess I'll weigh in, although after scanning the thread, I'll be in the minority.
I've got to say - Safe is one of my most favorite episodes! As you can tell by my handle (Tamsibling), I am a HUGE Tam fan. Something about brother and sister relationships is just awesome.
I do also love Ariel, Out of Gas, Heart of Gold (the moment when Inara is crying is heartwrenching), The Message (the scene in the beginning with Simon & Kaylee - and then Zoe & Wash - makes me laugh, cry and want to hit Simon every time). But if I ever just want to get a Firefly Fix, I gotta go with Serenity I & II, sometimes with commentary, sometimes without.
Oh, and the deleted scenes are the BDM make me laugh so hard, I cry, every time!
This must be what going insane feels like.
