I gotta go with either Out of Gas or War Stories. Don't get me wrong I love Ariel, but you're missing Book and for the most part Inara. OoG and WS have the whole crew compliment plus some of the best character development in the entire series ('Nothing in the 'Verse can stop me, 'You all gonna be here when I wake up?', etc.)

Since we (currently) only have a precious few episodes, I selfishly want the whole cast in the one I call my favorite.

Two cents partner...just my two cents.

We will hold...we hold till Mal gets back.

Has to be "Out of Gas". Awesomeness beyond compare.
....or maybe the 2 ep pilot.
...or "Train Job", or...

Actually
The best episode was where River took over the
ship and flew to my house, took me captive and
then we went to an old castle on Osiris and got
married.
Yup -way better than all the other eps!

OoG...

As character driven as all of the episodes were, that one was driven the hardest. MHO.

My favorites would have to be Trash and The Message. I know a lot of people hate The Message, but for some reason, it just really touched me. I also thought the way the crew dealt with the whole Tracey situation showed a lot about their individual personalities and well I loved Trash for the more obvious and naked reasons as well as the return of YoSaffBridge. I just think she's a cool villian.

Everytime one of these threads pop up, I have to make this little speech. "Best" and "Favorite" are, or at least can be, two different things. Some best or great films are undeniably fantastic, but can be hard to watch, or create a mood that you do not always want to repeat. Favorite films are the types that come on the tv and you watch them again, commercials and all even though you have the DVD.

So, since the question is "best" I go with Out of Gas, followed by Serenity and Objects in Space.

For favorites, I go with War Stories, Jaynestown, Our Mrs Reynolds and Serenity.

See how I'm not punching him, I think I've grown!

good answer....Fireflyfan

after watching the episodes over and over....and while i am very fond of all of them... i keep coming back to Out Of Gas....

it's a thing of beauty - every time i watch it, i can feel the love this crew has for one another - and Jayne shooting his (ex)partner in the leg is a hoot

Out of Gas.....that disk will be worn out firstest

Out Of Gas is without a doubt the best episode. They are all good, and I'd only consider a couple to be of slightly lesser quality. But Out Of Gas is just so beautifully done, it's perfect.

My vote for best is also Out of Gas. All of them are excellent but this has that extra something. It is also cool to see how Mal gets Serenity and how he finds his crew. Good origin stuff that is vital in my opinion.

Simon: What if he(Mal) tells you to kill me.
Zoe: (without hesitation) I kill you.

The best episode ever?? That's easy, it's the one that Joss hasn't done yet. Well just kidding. My actual point is that I'm sure there would be even better episodes to come if someone would give him the chance to do the show again. Anyways as of now, I'd have to say Out of Gas is my favorite.

Although the Message is a close second. Not sure why. I think it has a lot to do with the ending and Mal being torn apart by not only the loss of the way, but what is happening to those who survived on his side. Then there's the fact that Tracey was ready to shoot someone (infact he shot Wash ), but it really hurt Mal and I think I know how he feels in a sense. That looks on his face at the very end give me chills it's so good.

In response to the Best vs. Favorite debate on which episode I prefer, the answer is easy. I LOVE the pilot, Serenity. I LOVE watching the original Mal, the nasty Mal, the bitter Mal confront Jayne at the dinner table. I love watching them get screwed by Badger. I love being suspicious of Simon, and completely ignore the Alliance Agent. I love being suprised at how easily Book beats the crapola out of him. I love how freaked out Jayne gets by the reavers. I love how Wash gets irritated by Mal and Zoe's relationship (His thumbs up after he tells Zoe to call Mal sir because he likes it is, I think, one of the funniest Wash moments in the whole show). I love the space sequence at the beginning and the super detailed reaver escape at the end. I love Simon's face when Mal tells him Kaylee's dead. I simply love it all. By far it is the best, and alsoo my favorite episode. And, let's not forget that it's two hours long. Double your fun....

My vote goes for outta Gas as well!

Hmmmm, funny how soo many browncoats are picking the same ep. Wonder if it has anything at all to do with the fact that we alot of think alike, else we wouldn't all BE browncoats here on the board, talking firefly.

2nd runner up is Jaynestown! Big surpise eh?

Out of gas is "the best" of a great series.

I like the fact that Mal refuses to leave his ship but still wants to care for everyone and give them every fighting chance.

I like the fact that they all respond in different ways, Zoe makes them come back, Inara does not want to leave Mal.

Also Shindig is a personal favorite as we see that things are getting intersting between Inara and Mal.

The pilot!
Everything about the episode was just so badarse.

And in second place, Jaynestown, it goes from hilarious to deadly serous, written by none other then Ben Edlund, creator of The Tick.

And who can deny the snazzy of that!
...
Are you denying the snazzy of that?

My favorites are "Out of Gas" and "Objects in Space"

OoG- because we see the beginning of everything and see Mal fall in love with Serenity, his little piece of Alliance free space.

OiS- Because it was so unusual. It made Serenity seem like it was the only element in the universe, it was unto itself the most stressed time the crew felt, they were invaded and taken by surprise.

I'm finding it's usually whatever ep I've watched last ;p

It's like me trying to pick a favorite crewmember. Everytime I try and narrow it down, I go "yeah, but what about-".

But well... put a gun to my head and force me to pick one, I'd go with the pilot ep. Get to see the intros of all the characters, a couple shootouts, some chase scenes, Inara taking a spongebath, and of course, it's twice as long as a regular episode.

Also, Bushwhacked will always have a special place for me. That was the first episode I caught when it was originally on the air, so... Plus I'm partial to the scene with everyone goofing off in the cargo bay, and of course the interrogations onboard the Alliance ship.
