There's this one brief moment when the camera is close up on Saffron, she's looking at Mal, but you see Jayne's hand reach over and kind of paw at her shoulder, awkwardly. You can just hear the unspoken... "Touch... woman... purdy..." in the gesture. It cracks me up every time.

Mwahahaha! I giggle every time at that too.

One of my favs:

"Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?"

"We live in a spaceship, dear." ~Zoe

Yep, Nathan started his career on One Life To Live as Joey Buchanan. Mid 1990's I think. His character had a hot and heavy affair with Dorian, who was much older and his mother's hated rival

He returned last July for the "funeral" of Asa Buchanan along with more than a few OLTL alumni.

I also think "Desperate Housewives" could be classified as a prime time soaper.

In Jaynestown, Zoe greets the returning Wash,
who is beyond rumpled, mud on his face, and hair
all rucked up. She want to know if he's drunk.
He'd like to tell her about Jayne being a hero
but between the drink and the giggles he can't
communicate. So very realistic!! Gets me started
every time.

I agree on the Objects in Space statement, it's an interesting connection they seem to make. And then of course, Serenity the BDM follows, seems fitting. This last time through Firefly (just finished it last night) I guess I'm just thick or something but I hadn't noticed the ball River focuses on at the end of Objects in Space looking like the planet Serenity passes in the beginning.....DUH. I'll be ok......

Getting back to the thread topic, how about the conversation Jewel had, I think it was in the Train Job when she's asked by Simon (I believe) about what was about to happen and if it was something they'd done before etc. She had a few good moments of screen time there and I recall her being particularly confident and memorable...

Both Jewel and Morena do some fantastic work…

Morena in Jaynestown

“……..Jayne your talking about Jayne Cobb?!!”

Fess,” Yes Jayne Cobb, the hero of Canton. The only man that ever stood of to my father. I kinda hate the idea of him getting caught.”

Inara. “ …Yes, that would be bad!”

Morena does such a great job. Her eyes moving all around, you can see she’s a little miffed because she got it all wrong thinking he was speaking of Mal.

Objects in Space is a Jewel for Jewel. When she looks up and is faced with Jubal Early, that whole scene is gold. I fear her fear. Don’t think that scene coulda been played better by anyone. She nailed it.

When Nathan was on Ellen, he talked about how someone on the soap opera (all my children?) taught him the three looks to use when the camera pushes in on that going-to-commercial close-up. Each one can apply to any given situation in the script:

The shocked, "Did I leave the stove on?"

The thoughtful, "I think I turned the stove off."

And the decisive but ultimately sexy, "Yes. I turned the stove off."

It's on YouTube somewhere. I gotta go find it again.

I think he learned a fourth, though, when Saffron says, "but Mr. Reynolds, sir, I'm your wife."

That *LOOK* he gave her is what hooked me on Firefly for all time... and put Nathan at the top of my "Man-Toy" list.

Also must watch OMR for that "Woman, me touch" look from Jayne.

I can't list all the quotes I adore and wait for. This post is long enough already.
