Oh, yeah, I didn't even get started on the movie! That makes me cry when Book and Wash die, and as Devon said when Zoe says "He's not coming."

Many of the scenes previously listed, but in addition:
is one of the best fanvideos I've ever seen. I'm particularly sensitive to the sibling relationship and it is so well exemplified there. Man. I just can't do it justice.
I'm very smart.

Heart of gold just made me go "damn you inara, why didnt you just stab him before he could fire?" But the message definitely brought a tear to my eye, both times I saw it.

Heart of Gold - the parts where Inara's crying and the very end when Inara says she's leaving

"See, I've secretly been kind of a fan of me for some time now. I've seen everything I've ever done. I'd love to meet me, but I'd probably just stare and not be able to say anything witty or anything." -- Joss Whedon

Objects in Space...
"I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early.
And I'll just fade away."
Gets me every time, love that Summer Glau.
"But, these strong women characters?"
"Why aren't you asking 100 other guys why they don't write strong women characters?" -Joss Whedon.
"We take all the money we got saved right now, we could maybe buy a moderately sized gerbil." -Mal

Out of Gas, primarily when Mal adopts Serenity from the Humane Society because of that look she was giving him- her viewports all big and misty...
then again when Mal is shot by the ruttin' pirates, when he already offered for them to take what they wanted...
then again when he doesn't make it to the recall button...the worst part is, you know what's coming but it still gets to you. The plot of that story was so transparent, but Joss knew it wouldn't matter- he knew we wanted to see it, and that we would feel it.
The Message- moreso now because I realize that the crew- I mean, cast- no, no, the crew found out they were cancelled and had to do the reminiscence scene at the table with that hanging over them. Also- the Walk/Crawl line, and to be honest, I've laid to rest too many young men I've served with. It's hard even when it's fictionalized.
Lastly, I still wish that they didn't let Wash go.
As for objects, I still have only seen it once. I can't watch it by myself.

Much like everyone else, I want to say the Message, because the funeral scene is for the show, and that look on Mal's face is just so devastating, but i want to reference two scenes with jayne, of all people: Jaynestown, at the end, where he is just so twisted about how it all went down, and is trying so hard to extend himself beyond his two-dimensional existence, but can only go so far, and you just know it hurts and confuses him to reach his own limitations emotionally; secondly, the end of Ariel, where jayne saves his own life by showing shame for what he did, tho God forbid in Joss's world he should ever make it so obvious.......(there is a great solo artist named Paul Westerberg, formerly of the Replacements, a great '80s punk band, and he said in an interview "I write for bright people--if you don't get it, i'm sorry, but I just can't write down"). Joss wrote this show for bright people, not for people who were looking for a ton of flash bang shoot-em-up and nail the pretty girl eye candy.
As Frank Zappa once said about Alice Cooper--"You either get it or you don't. I wouldn't even try to explain"

Just because of the fact that i didn't want to make this post the great American novel, I am breaking it up into two parts:
in Heart of Gold, when the scene flashes to Inara sobbing her guts out, that got me, mostly becuase of how it was done out--no introduction, no seeing her face break into tears, just BAM! in your face emotion that told the whole season's worth of story about how she felt for Mal. It was in-your-face and yet understated at the same time, and Joss left it up to us to figure out what it all meant.
Again, Joss wrote the show for bright people, hence its inevitable demise.
Did that sound cynical?

Whenever River cries, I follow suit.
Especially during Simon's "I'm very smart" speech, when we first see how terrified she is of the Infirmary.
I love what Joss and Nathan say on the commentary around this shot...

I didn't really tear up the first time through the series. Well, a little bit at Objects in Space, but just because it was the end. The second time through, I got choked up during Safe atthe scene between River and Simon with the hodgeberries. Also the scene between River and Simon in War Stories after River threw up on his bed.
Actually, most intimate scenes between River and Simon. I love them.
