I was just thinking the other day about the last show that was my hard-core obsession --one that was cancelled three times-- and I remembered a trivia guru pointing out that the two most important characters (after the main character) had only been on camera together three times in three seasons. Wait, it was the commentary by Nathan Fillion that he was looking forward to working with Alan Tudyk on "War Stories" since they had had very little time working together thus far. Hence, a debatable trivia question to which I myself do not have an answer: Which pair of regular cast members did the fewest number of scenes together and how many was it? The OCD folks can thank me later.

Off the top of my head, Wash and River.

I'd say Wash and River and Jayne and River. Though Jayne and River were on screen a lot for "Ariel", they never actually spoke directly to one another. In fact, And I don't think River and Wash ever actually spoke to each other. Also, I don't think she ever said his name. Of course, she never said a lot of people's names.

I would have to say Wash and River too

I don't think Wash and Book ever spent that much time together either.

Wash and Simon too. Those two barely interacted.

Poor Wash is left out of a lot, isn't he?

I think wash gets left out a lot because he had to stay with the ship or he was busy piloting.

Or avoiding war stories so as not to further strain his marriage. But never fear for Wash, children. He gets to spend a whole lot of time with Zoe. Alan even states this in the DVD, how he interprets his character through his relationship with Zoe.

Oh, I had forgotten about that!

Thinking about it, Wash hardly ever interacted with anyone, just Zoe, Kaylee, and Mal. And Simon mostly hung with River and Kaylee. And Zoe with Mal, Wash, and Jayne. And Jayne with Book, Mal, and Zoe. And Book with Jayne. And River with Simon and Kaylee. And Inara with Mal and Kaylee. Okay, Mal interacted with everyone the most. Poor Book and Wash hardly ever interacted with anyone. :(
