My favorite scene is from episode Out of gas< when Mal needs to rest and he's closing his eyes then suddenly opens and ask his crew " you all gonna be here when I wake up"? crew replies "yes" Mal said "Good"

I took a while to post because it's nearly impossible to pick a favorite scene from Firefly, but I finally decided on the scene that made up my mind to watch the entire series.

From Serenity, when Wash is playing with the dinosaurs:
"Yes… Yes… This is a fertile land and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land and we will call it… This Land."

It hit my funny bone and I haven't looked back since.

My favorite scene is at the battle of Serenity Valley where Mal dodging through all the enemy fire to destroy the antiaircraft gun.

Best scene is the dinosaur conversation that Wash has with… well, himself, I guess. For me, more than anything else that scene established the characters as being "real" because hell, I've done stuff like that when I didn't think anyone was watching. That, and the dialog is hilarious. "Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal," is a classic line for good reason.

Good pick, Doctorossi. Another point in that scene is Mal's use of the water: he runs it just enough to wet his hands and shuts it off. This shows the scarcity of such things in the black and is just a wee attention to detail that can be easily overlooked but would stand out glaringly if Mal ran the water all willy nilly like.

If you can even call it a scene… I love the moment in "Serenity" when we see Mal walk into his quarters, flip down his built-in toilet and take a leak. It's a moment that tells the audience early on just how much this show is going to focus on atmosphere, story pacing and character detail, and it just feels unique in television.

In Out of Gas, when Mal looks at Serenity while the salesman says "You buy this ship, treat her proper, she'll be with you the rest of your life." He falls in love and sees his future before him.

And when Mal comes to in the infirmary, sees his family came back for him, and asks if they'll still be there when he wakes up. Book assures him that they will and all seems right with the world. They are a family.

Oh, this is a hard choice!

But there will always be a very soft spot in my heart for the scene in Shindig where Kaylee finds herself a minor belle of the ball, surrounded by men and boys hanging on her every word about engineering, to the point where one is shouted down for asking her to dance. It's such a lovely thing to see after her earlier snubbing by the society girls, and even Mal's comment about how she'd look ridiculous in that exact dress.

My favorite is also the Jayne Vera trade.

Objects in Space, "I am Serenity." I cry every time.
