I've noticed when anyone is hurt Jayne is always there..looking mighty worried he did it with Zoey when she was hurt and Kaylee and River

I think I really realized what a big softie Jayne was was when he was wearing the hat his mom made for him

- Zoe's expressions, especially in War Stories. At fisrt watching I was concentrating on Wash and Mal, but on the second or third time you see Zoe's face and you like - OK, here's where the real plot is...
- The crazy talk scene in Trash - I swear, I saw it only like on the fourth time watched it. and now it's one of my favorite scenes. How come I missed it? No idea.
- The little things about Kaylee, like the teddy bear and the sign on her door.

There's more, but I haven't read even half of the thread and already I want to go and chack some of the things I read about and never noticed
So that's all for now.

I just recently noticed something in Objects in Space. When Early and Simon are entering the cargo bay, the camera is on a closeup of a space suit helmet and you can see that the suit locker is open. In retrospect, this was a clue about what River did.

I'm going on memory here, so please forgive me if I get something wrong; In the commentary for Shindig, the costume designer, Shawna Torpic (?), mentions that her (Zoe's) cord necklace was to symbolize her marriage. Like a wedding band of sorts, and like a wedding band, she 'supposedly' NEVER took it off.

Just remembered - on Bushwacked, when the feds are searching the ship and their commander questions the crew you can see that the rooms match to the person questioned. And in the part the commander questions Wash you can see a fed looking through a box in Wash and Zoe's room, his flash-light pointed into the box revealing one of the dinasours from Serenity. The fed stares at it for a moment, then tosses it aside. I found this extremely funny when I discovered this.

Joss's commentary mentions that Mal has "lost his faith" in everything (especially God) because of what happened when the troops were all abandoned and forced to surrender at the battle of Serenity. The war must have left him with the belief that he could never trust or depend upon anyone but himself and his close "peers" (e.g., Zoe).

Just watched Ariel again last night. I was quite taken aback by the way Simon rather professionally smothered one of the guards (for all he could tell at the time)to death with his knee, although it later becomes apparent that the guy is just out cold. Given the situation it is understandable but it did still shock me coming from the good Doctor, especially as he struggled to pull his trigger on the Fed in Serenity and expresses remorse about "shooting" people in WS. In that context its a powerful moment which just goes to show how far he is willing to go to protect River. Guess the first time round I was occupied watching Jayne having a rather more prolonged and difficult fight with his guard.

I just noticed this a couple of days ago: in The Train Job, when Jayne "goes crazy and falls asleep" there's a camera angle looking up from the floor past Jayne's face to the rest of the group talking about what to do.

Wash's boot comes out and casually rests on Jayne's butt while everyone's talking. Hi-larious!

The woods are the only place where I can see a clear path.

Only after repeated viewings, freeze frames and zooms did I see the image of a rescue ship in Early's faceplate at the end of OiS.
