This is an impossible question b/c everytime I think I have one it leads me to another one...the first one or two that popped into my head:

Wash and his dinosaurs in the pilot (this is my son's favorite scene)

Train Job: Jayne with the chain of command and going crazy and falling asleep...had me choking with laughter!

Oh, and I love that the beginning of our Mrs. Reynolds where the entire crew is in the cargo bay meeting Saffron - hilarious!

I'm going to quit here because I could go on and on and on and on...and these are just the first funny ones that came to mind, forget the angsty ones, the scifi shots, the hero shots, ...

*****
Mal:We're still flying.
Simon: That's not much.
Mal: It's enough.

My favourites are generally River scenes. There are plenty that aren't, but hers are the best. I particularly like the Mal/River relationship at certain times.

Some highlights, in no particular order (couldn't possibly pick a best one):

-the "Love" scene at the end of the BDM

-the Mal/River spacewalk banter at the end of OiS

-the entire teaser for OiS, with River's slightly psychotic walk through the ship

-also, I can kill you with my brain

-boy, I was there. I'm fair sure you haven't killed anyone yet.

-I don't know if this counts, but the scene from the extended blooper reel where Mal appears all around the room while they're listening to the message in The Message

-the Jayne/Dobson interaction

Okay, I'd better stop now.

Mal and River at the end of Ois is always a good one.

I love the look on Jayne's face in Jaynestown when Mal tells him he can't take a gun and he starts to rip off the tape.

"Pain is scary"

Mal and Jayne imitating a couple at the beginning of Our Mrs Reynolds -- "If I could make you prettier I would." etc

Glänzend!

There are may funny scenes, all right, but the one, where I alkways hug my pillow and have tears in my eyes is at the end of "out of gas", when Mal in sick bay, being shot, almost bled to death, full of medication, almost falls to sleep, but then he forces himself back, because this is so important to him. And then he asks: You're all gonna be here, when I wake up?

They are as important for him, as he is for them. He is their Captain, but they are his family.

Have to stop here, have to blow my nose ...
