In war stories, after Wash and Zoe have the fight, the one where Wash says, "Call him 'sir' he loves that."

Mal walks in and i can't remember the conversation exactly, but Zoe call's him Sir, and in the background Wash gives her a thumbs up. I get such a kick out of that.

And of course the shadow puppets bit.

Four out of five dentists reccomend calling Ebo a girl.

Not getting a joke reminds me of the last Buffy episode "Chosen" where she goes "I want you...to get out of my face." - I was appalled that I never got that was a pun until Joss mentioned it in the commentary. Doh! A genius pun at that, but one which apparently very few people got.


I just now got that!! Slap me up side the head with a raw fish 8 or 9 times and I might notice!

MAL "You only gotta scare him."
JAYNE "Pain is scary..."

Actually, that's from Serenity.

Wash: Don't forget to call him sir, he likes that.
Mal: Who likes what?
Zoe: Nothing, sir.
Wash: *thumbs up*

I like in Our Mrs. Reynolds, when Kaylee says that Mal makes everyone cry, there's Jayne's hand caressing Saffron's shoulder.

Joss mentions this in the commentary of Serenity, but there's the flashes of Mal and Inara looking at each other, but the other doesn't see it.

There are many moments like this for me. Most recently I was watching the Train Job again. In the first scene our BDHs are in the saloon, when the drunk at the bar makes the Unification Day announcement.

Jayne says, "What day is it?" After a moment he follows with, "What month is it?"

I don't even think I caught that the first time. It especially struck me as funny because I was feeling the same way. I can't believe it's September already.



Oh, and play Strange Adventures in Infinite Space. http://digital-eel.com/sais

For me, one thing that always makes me giggle like a school-girl is in Trash. When Mal and YoSafBridge have the Lassiter and Durran returns to the room -

MAL: Unless it looks like we're stealing
your priceless Mexican, 'cause that's
what we're doing. Don't ask me about
the gun, 'cause that's new.


DURRAN: Well. I appreciate your honesty.
Not, you know, a lot, but --

The way Durran's line is delivered, with a lilt in his voice and tilt of his head, just cracks me up!


I'll be in my bunk...

I'm almost willing to swear on my life that it's War Stories. DVDs are out on a conversion right now so I can't be sure but I'm certain you're wrong - some good soul (not me though) should type up every line of every episode to go on this site you know :)

my favorite is in serenity when kaylee and simon are talking at the dinner table, theres a very quick shot of jayne and hes giving simon this kinda "stay away from my kaylee" look. mabye thats not what joss intended the look to mean but im a firm believer that jayne has a crush on kaylee.

-You wanna go little man?
-Only if its some place with candel light.

That's definitely Serenity. I just started watching the DVDs again from the beginning -- we got through Serenity and The Train Job, and I noticed the thumbs up for the first time last night.

Well he's male ain't he?

Though maybe he's sly ;)

Now that would be an interesting bit of character development!

I like the scene in Heart of Gold where the baby is being born and River looks down and says "Who do you think is in there?" It's a very good line, and the looks that she gets from Inara and Simon are priceless.

"You wanna go little man?" - Jayne
"Only if there's candlelight." - Wash
