Not from necessarily watching too much (since that's impossible), but just little things you do now?
For instance, I don't wear belts, but I loop my thumbs in belt loops and let them hang down as Mal does with his belt on several occasions. If I don't have a belt loop, I put my hands in my back pockets in the same style Mal does at the end of Our Mrs. reynolds when he walks away from Inara.
Also, I now find myself eating fruits very, very, VERY slowly, and for a reason we should all know why. 
What about you? What other Browncoat habits are there out there?

Phrases. Every now and then I'll slip into wild west talk, complete with y'alls and I reckon's. Not to mention the Chinese swears.
It would be bad enough if I lived in the US, but I'm Irish. People stare.

Haha, I do that too. I used to do it purposefully sometimes, but now I find myself unconsciously doing it.
I live in the uS, but I get stares 'cause I don't live in the south. ;)
Well, I'm on the border of the south. But that's not the point.

definitely cut those apples first...have eaten fruit with chopsticks... but I guess the big habit I picked up is quoting ( when the occasion warrents)
I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

Nothing all that interesting... Just humming the Firefly theme song or the FOB song when I'm not thinking about what I'm doing.
Oh, and bursting forth with a rousing chorus of The Man They Call Jayne every now and again.

I do the same thing. XD Actually, I sing the song... when I check out customers at my local grocery store (I'm a cashier). I get some odd looks...

I've picked up the habit of always wearing a brown coat no matter where I go, just in case I see any purple-bellied Alliance.

Hmm. I have picked up a bunch of habits, including wearing a browncoat whenever possible...but yes, the language, the quotes, the Chinese...all of that has become part of me. Might start shooting first and dumping the body out the loading door...never know!

Well, since I am an ABC (American Born Chinese), swearing in Chinese is nothing new, although I do it in both Cantonese and Mandarin. Yeah, childhood was tough. Learnin' two types of Chinese and English all at once. Well anyways, I do have a tendency to not make contact with the roof of my mouth with my tongue while saying "Goddamit". Aka I subconciously say "gorramit" instead.

Always havin' a good time!
