I like the scenes between the flashback with Mal and Zoe at the Battle of Serenity Valley and the part where Early says "Yep, here I am"...

OiS, starting with River's V.O. soliloquy. She's got a plan to defeat Jubal Early, but it's more than that. When she tells him that she'll be his bounty, and that: "Everyone can just go on without me, and not have to worry," you can tell she means it, that despite speaking to Jubal because it's part of her plan, she's also speakng to the crew.

Her words are coming from her heart, her voice on the edge of cracking (but not cracking). And while technically her floating down to Mal is another scene, to me it is really the close of the scene started with her soliloquy. She is coming down to Mal, down to Serenity, down to the ship (the home) and the people she loves.

She is in a space suit and helmet, her face obscured by shadow, and yet her joy radiate through: silent, a iron-core snowflake glowing and floating through space, until her fingertips touch those of Mal.

Damn scene makes me cry every time I see it.

I just discovere this show on January 19, and watched all 14 episodes in 3 days. That scene is my favorite, not only of Firefly, but of any television program ever.

It took you as long as 3 days??!! C'mon...you can do better than that. LOL....Just kiddin'...I got hooked the same way, and it's one of the great joys of my life...along with my kids...oh yeah, my wife too.

It took three days because I didn't even set out to watch Firefly! I started with T:TSCC (downloaded the pilot from iTunes on Jan 19, then bought the second right after the first), and that led me to Firefly! So I had to squeeze 3 episodes of T:TSCC (the third aired the following Monday) in between devouring every scrap of Firefly/Serenity ever made.

I'm sure I could have shaved a day off of my time, had I skipped T:TSCC. Then again, I wouldn't be here, if not for that.

1. In "Serenity" after Kaylee is shot and is in the sickbay and Jayne is peaking through the window.

2. In "Out of Gas" when Mal pulls himself up from the grate and stumbles to save his ship.

3. In "Serenity" when Mal touches Inara's arm after telling her to get people into her little ship.

Just some I can think of off the top of my head.

River and Badger in Shindig ...

RIVER
You're talking loud enough for the both of us, though, ain't you? I've known a dozen like you. Skipped off home early, minor graft jobs here and
there. Spent some time in the lock-down, I warrant, but less than you claim. Now you're what, petty thief with delusions of standing? Sad
little king of a sad little hill.

After a beat...

BADGER
Nice to see someone from the old homestead.

RIVER
Not really.
(to Simon)
Call me f'anyone interesting shows up.

BADGER
(to Simon)
I like her.

JAYNE
That there? 'Xactly the kind of diversion we coulda used.

Brilliant.

My favorite scene would have to be from the BDM. Towards the end when Mal passes Inara in the hall.

Mal: Ready to get off this heap, back to civilized life?

Inara: I don't know.

Mal: Good answer.

Its the first time the two have both let their guards down at the same time. I also think that it's the best I've seen Inara look. She is not wearing as much make up and her natural beauty is shining through.

Simon: What if he(Mal) tells you to kill me?
Zoe: (without hesitation) I kill you.

Love all the episodes, so many great quotes. Favorite episode (not by much) is Ariel, but my favorite quote comes at the end of Out of Gas when Mal is laid out on the medical table. "Yall still be here when I wake up?" Cuts right through Mal's tough exterior and demonstrates his emotional need for the crew, his family.

Without a doubt, Our Mrs. Reynolds, when Saffron kisses Mal and Mal says "Im going to the special hell" refering to the previous conversation with Shepard Book.

I have wondered about that - movies playing in this verse. Didn't see any theaters, is this something only on core planets? When everybody has a cortex console, do they have theaters for movies? Or is he strictly speaking of Broadway type theaters - live acting only?
