I really like the Joss Whedon commentaries but my favourite bit is in 'The Train Job' commentary when they critise Star Wars: Episode II for using zooms.
"Well my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle."

My favourite? During Serenity when the ship was landing on whitefalls:
Nathan: "now this shot took a couple of goes.. cause Alan had trouble parking this thing"
Haha I love that

I also liked Joss and Nathan's banter, such as:
NATHAN: I like it; you're a smart guy, man...
JOSS: you know, I just...
NATHAN: ...I don't care what people say...
JOSS: I, um...uh, wha?
or the part where they were joking about how David Boreanaz (sp?) didn't like chickens so he couldn't play the part of Mal
NATHAN: Worked out well for me, though.
JOSS: Yes...but not so much for me.
I just love how much fun this group truly seemed to have working with each other, and it comes through in the commentaries (although I wonder why Adam didn't do one...I bet it woulda been HI-larious!)

One of my favorites was from Alan. Something to the effect that fox won't allow fade to black because they dont want black on the TV screen. Not when you can fill it with some reality based game show.

--The bit on Objects in Space where Whedon explains Minear's inability to say "Boba Fett."
--The Train Job where Whedon's saying something about chickens and Chekov, and Minear asks, "So that'd be Chekov from the original Star Trek?"
--War Stories, where Alan Tudyk explains that Nathan Fillion is doing great job in Firefly, and he himself is doing a great job in The Deer Hunter.
I also like when whoever's doing the commentary gets caught up in some aspect of the storytelling -- acting, dialogue, delivery, CGI. It's just adorable.
"You are such a boo."
