Mal tells YoSaffBrig about his "family" in Our Mrs Reynolds, he grew up on a ranch raised by his mom and about 40 hands I can't remember if he denies having any brothers or sisters though I'm sure he said he never knew his dad - guess it's time to watch it again
I like the idea of Jayne having a bunch of like minded brotheres all with "girls names" that have "y's" in them
Kaylee is definitely the only girl in an all male household - her "ma" is a resreved homemkaer who let's "pa" make all the decisions, Kaylee is "daddy's little girl who is hell on wheels fro trouble" when she was growing up she always blamed everything that went wrong on monkeys and sometimes space monkeys at that. Although she did finally perfect the inter engine fermentation device that she could never get right as a child.

Definitely the Earps. As the youngest, he might've turned to a life of crime as a rebellion against his older, coddling siblings. It also explains why he doesn't go back home: If he went home, his brothers, as lawmen, would have to arrest him, although they wouldn't want to.
As far as Wash is concerned, I don't have a clear picture of any of his siblings, but I would cast Tim Thomerson as his father.
Finally, I could see Mal having an older, Alliance-leaning brother, played by Bruce Boxleitner or Scott Bakula.

Walter Pipp - great casting for Wash's dad - Tim Thomerson - took a look at imdb and recognize the character actor - always plays a kind of wild, crazy type - definitely have son like Wash.
Hell's Kitten - totally unrelated to this thread, but I noticed another FFF.net thread where you posted some pics of some VERY nice Jayne shirts you were working on. The response was amazing (maybe a bit overwhelming?) but I didn't see anything from you as to whether you were going to be able to make them available. I know Alex of bluesunshirts.com said he would be happy to provide any assistance as he's a huge fan, loves your designs and just wants to see as much Firefly "stuff" walking around as possible. He also happens to be a commercial printer. I have 2 of his shirts and can vouch for the quality as many others can on this board. Just curious - I'll go back to minding my own business now.

i could be reading something that is not completely accurate, but the script i read said about matty: "he waves hello.." so i assume it is a brother. of course, there is always the possiblity that jayne has other siblings too. also, what i read had the letter saying from jayne's mother "thanks for the credits you forwarded.." how nice.
jayne looking after his family."my grandmother always said, "this too, shall pass."

And, conveniently, short for Benito.

Bene would have to be evil, of course. And probably real dour & humourless too. Otherwise it just wouldn't be ironical.Quote:Played by Gordon Michael Wolvett?

Wash I could see having a brother, maybe a little younger. He is a hot shot pilot for some private corporate type. His brother wears Hawaiian shirts too and is as funny or funnier than Wash.
Gordon Michael Wolvett would be a fantastic choice as Wash's younger brother!

I think that Jayne would have a brother and/or sister, he would HAVE to be the first born, he family would be poor, his mom doesnt know that he is a theif and most likely thinks that he has a real good paying legitimate job.
Zoe is an only child i cant imagine any siblings.
Inara i would think never met her parents and one day she would a good new episode
Mal i think that he has a brotehr or sister that at one point was killled by the alliance then he made the choice to join the Browncoats in their fight.
Kaylee is the younge spoiled one of her family, her dad would be a mechanic and she watcehd him fix things which helped her become one, one day. she would have an older brotehr very protective.
Shepard Book well id like to hear some good theorys about him and his past, his connection to the alliance, and what jubal meant when he said he wasnt a preacher (he seemed to know everything about all of them)i'll post a forum for this topic cuase it could go into a lot of detail
Then For the Simon and river well u know all about them.

I forgot Wash how "Ta ma duh" "Tzao-goa" sry bout that Wash my friend ur a great man greatest in this verse, BUT anyway time to think up something really good for you seeing as how i forgot you Alright here it is Wash enjoy i wored extra hard on this one...
Ok so Wash will have a Brotehr - Younger - Who has a daughter ,Washes Neice, wash is the cool uncle that the kids look up too, Wash wants to have kids a bunch of little gorram washes running around but sadly Zoe cannot have kids or there is some sorta problem which stops them from having children. Washes dad died before in a plane crash (or ship crash something like that,) whick made wash scared of heights for a long time but then his mom got him into the air and he really enjoyed it, so he then became a great pilot.
There u go wash my friend i made this little thing up instead of doing homework, be proud... I think im gnnan faill english because this is so much more fun

Quote:Other way around, actually; in "Heart of Gold" (IIRC) we see them fighting over it. Zoe wants kids, but Wash doesn't think they should raise them on the ship (& in danger).
