Who is the funniest character in Firefly/Serenity.
For me its Mal closely followed by Wash then River.

Very hard to say!
Inara has a really delicious dry wit, much the same with Simon. And Zoe.
Wash is more in-your-face funny, as are Mal and Jayne.
River has a few hilarious moments. Book is often funny.
The only one I find more utterly adorable than downright funny is Kaylee, really.
If I really had to choose: Jayne.

For me it's a toss up between Mal and Wash. I mean, in the Serenity pilot when he tells Simon that Kaylee is dead and the scene cuts to the crew laughing, I just about died of laughter. Wash is pretty damn funny too, but if I had to pick between the two I'd choose Mal.

I would suppose it depends on what type of humor you're referring to. My personal favorite is Wash. Alan Tudyk has an eccentric style of humor that I've always loved.

KAYLEE - Captain seem a little funny to you at breakfast this morning?
WASH - Come on, Kaylee...We all know I'm the funny one.

Mal quips and Zoe deadpans but it has to be Wash.
Right from: "'Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!' 'Hahahahaha. Mine is an evil laugh.'"
And the little, sarcastic thumbs up that he gives Zoe when she calls Mal Captain (he likes that).
Can we vote about the murdering people?

I'd say Jayne's pretty darn funny-
Mind it's mostly due to his own stupidity, but he's still funny:)
Dr. Simon Tam: I thought she was getting better.
Jayne Cobb: And I thought they was getting off. Didn't we have an intricate plan on how they was gonna not be here any more?
Kaylee Frye: We couldn't leave them now.
Jayne Cobb: No, now that she's a killer woman, we ought to be bringing her tea and dumplings.
Jayne Cobb: I won't get et! You shoot me if they take me!
[Mal aims pistol squarely at Jayne]
Jayne Cobb: Well, don't shoot me first!
Dr. Simon Tam: A phrase that's encoded in her brain, that makes her fall asleep. If I speak the words, "Eta...
Jayne Cobb: Well don't say it!
Zoë: It only works on her, Jayne.
Jayne Cobb: Oh... Well, now I know that.
Jayne Cobb: We're gonna explode? I don't wanna explode!
Jayne Cobb: Ain't logical. Cuttin' on his own face, rapin' and murdering - Hell, I'll kill a man in a fair fight... or if I think he's gonna start a fair fight, or if he bothers me, or if there's a woman, or if I'm gettin' paid - mostly only when I'm gettin' paid. But these Reavers... last ten years they show up like the bogeyman from stories. Eating people alive? Where's that get fun?
Simon: “River, you have to eat! It's good, it tastes like... (takes a bite, makes a face) it's good!”
Jayne: “It smells like crotch.”
Kaylee: “Jayne!”
Jayne: “Well, it does.”

*sigh* Jayne. AB is the greatest scene stealer since Rickman.
For sheer comic timing, Mal or Wash. Or the two together.
Simon gets the best snark, followed by Zoe.
But I think it has to be His Big Bad Self.
