Teela, that's how I feel about all the scenes everyone else picked that I didn't think of! I have to stand by my choices, though, that's why I wrote it before I read the entire thread.

"Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity?"

Though you're right, Lora, it's very hard to choose a favorite. So, people are bound to say ones you also like, but you chose something else. Ces't la vie. (I think that's the correcet spelling).

Melee, this is a wonderful thread. It's making us think, and it's shiny!

Funiest:

The funniest scene is the scene in "Jaynestown" where Book has his hair out and it startles River and Zoe.

Saddest:

Again in "Jaynestown", at the very end, when Jayne can't comprehend why the guy saved his life.

Most Romantic:

Inara in "Serenity", deffinately

Best Music:

The music in "Serenity" when Mal looks out and looses hope, the music is so fitting.

Most Warm Fuzzies:

The moment you realize River's plan in "Objects in Space" and Mal pushes Early off from the ship. Also in the following scene where River and Kaylee are playing Jax.

Creepiest Scene:

Deffinately in "Bushwhacked" when they enter the ship, you just have this creepy feeling that something is wrong.

Weirdest Scene:

Wash playing with his dinosaurs...just weird funny.

Best Fight Scene:

Serenity Valley in "Serenity"

Mal:
When you "meet the real me" in "War Stories"

Zoe:
I have to agree with Alan Tudyk and Jewel Staite in "The Message" when she slits the guys throat and saves Tracey's life.

Wash:
When he is playing with his dinosaurs.

Inara:
When she leaves Saffron in the dumpster.

Kaylee:
When she is talking to the men at the banquet in "Shindig."

Jayne:
When he kills the guy in "Jaynestown" and his speech that ensues.

Simon:
When he is fighting Early in "Objects in Space"

River:
When she shoots the soldiers in "War Stories"

Book:
When he knocks the Fed out in "Serenity"
