    I'd like to meet the people who are capable of deciding.
    I am not one of those people.

    ... maybe Jaynestown.

    ETA: My kid was born too early to have been named after any Firefly characters, but he's 16 now and he loves the show as much as I do. Last year he was 14 and was cosplaying Simon Tam at Dragon*Con as part of our Firefly group, where Sean Maher was signing autographs. My son has high functioning autism and is very very very shy, but he wanted to get Sean's autograph. Sean immediately recognized his costume and flipped out telling him how great it was. Then he wrote like a paragraph on the autograph telling my son to keep up the good work and follow his dreams and thanks for being such a great Simon. My son was so happy. It was so sweet and it was seriously a highlight of the convention for him.

    It's really an injustice to place one episode above the rest, but for me, my most fond memories are of Jaynestown... Jayne was simultaneously my favorite and least favorite Serenity crew member, so that episode was extra-special.

    This is a tough decision. They all are great episodes. I'd have to say that Our Mrs Reynolds was my favorite. Funny how the captain never got it when the companion passed out too. :)

    I think that episode is why Trash is my favorite. In "Our Mrs. Reynolds" all the character history is already established for all the major players in "Trash" which makes is possible for it to kick off with a lot of momentum. I do have to say that if I were the captain I probably would not have been able hold out as long he did resisting her. That chick was hot.

    It's a hard choice but the episode I would have to say is my favorite is Jaynestown. It's one of the funnier ones and I like the little bit of background on Jayne.

    Amen to that brutha. I love a companion.. I don't pay though. :)

    So difficult! Hmm. I'd have to say it's a tie between Shindig and Out of Gas. I loved seeing Malcolm and Kaylee at the party. But I loved the introduction of all the characters in Out of Gas. I always enjoy episodes (of any show) that give back stories. I feel like I just get immersed into the world even more with the history of characters. And they did it perfectly for each person.

    Ok it's really hard to decide on favorite episodes they were all sonawesome. However, I love jebel Early. He was such a great character and when the Simon says "my sister's a ship, we had a complicated childhood"

    Also gotta love the episode with Nathan Fillion in a bonnet :)
