I love it in Jaynestown when River is hiding after seeing Shepherd's hair all hanging out,and Zoe is trying to get her out and says "He's putting the hair away now." River replies:It doesn't matter it'll still be there....WAITING!!!!I literally almost pissed my pants.

Oh so many! thats one of my faveorite parts of Firefly, the comedy and oneliners :)

What comes to mind right now:

War Stories: The end when Mal tell Zoe that Wash thinks they should have sex....Take sir. take me hard. and then their faces as they go in awkwardly to kiss. LOVE IT!

Also, the scene in Jaynestown where they're all looking at the statue. Mals comment about staying and admiring it for a min and Simon's comments about going crazy. :)

In the outakes on the Serenity dvd when Nathan says to Zoe something like this:

Zoe, string four of five of them together and put them across the front. Put Book front and center, he was our friend, it's an honor. Kaylee, find the kid who's takin' a dirt nap with baby Jesus. We need a hood ornament. Jayne, don't steal too much of their shit.

Well, I think that's how it went. I probably got it wrong, but it's close to that. I couldn't stop laughing after that.

Jayne: Are you saying River's a witch?
Wash: Yes, Jayne, she's a witch. She's had congress with the Beast.
Jayne: She's in Congress?
Wash: How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious!

Hands down, Mal's line in "Trash" when talking to Inara.

(Re: the "wobbly-headed dolls")
Mal: Hey, people love those!


Nathan delivers the line with utter indignation that makes me guffaw every single time I watch it.

Runners-up:
-"Objects in Space"-
Jubal Early: Well, that's somewhat unsettling.
-"Out of Gas"-
(Didn't necessarily make me laugh out loud, considering the scene, but still one of my favorite lines)
Wash: Well, maybe I should do that, then!

For me it will always be the scene leading up to, "Did he just go crazy and fall asleep?"

At one point I was doing something else and I noticed that that scene was running in the background, muted, it was still hilarious.

GUERRA


My favorite scenes:

2nd episode, Mal explains that he doesn't want any issues and gives the money back to Niska's second hand man. The guy says he'll hunt him down and such, Mal just kicks him right into the engine and then explains it to the next henchman in line.

1st episode: Mal tells Simon that Kaylee is dead, Simon runs to see if shes okay, she waves at him, he says something about the Captain being a lunatic then it goes to a clip of the crew laughing their asses off.

Shindig: At the end of the duel, where hes talking about being compassionate, and then gives the guy a few extra stabs for comedy's sake.

Variety of great lines I've forgotten or people have mentioned previously, if you'd like to add the exact quotes to the scenes above, go for it :)

Hazzah for Firefly!

One of my favorites is in Heart of Gold when Kaylee says " they have boy whores too. Isn' that thoughtful? I wonder if they service women folk at all?" Then Wash goes "let's not ask them."

Oh and this might not be the right kind of funny moment but on the commentary for The Message Alan Tudyk is describing the way Tracey is acting/talking and he goes something along the lines of "this kid is wasted and like on the cheapest wine."
I don't know why but that always makes me get the giggles really bad.

It's one of Mal's retorts in his very first conversation with Inara:

Inara - "Nor will I under any circumstances be servicing you or anyone else under your employ."
Mal - "I'll post a sign."

I have to say every single flashback scene in "Out of Gas" goes somewhere at the top of my list.

Also, what really cracked me up: near the end of the "Serenity" episode. The fed is holding River hostage and the reavers are on their way. The way that Mal just shows up and shoots him out of hand without even breaking stride is another classic.

ASIDE: Saw the SCAD comments out there and had to give a shout-out. Graduated from there about four years ago. Say hi to pigeon-man and mr.sign for me, BlusihBrowncoat!

copilotleonard is right. Just about anything Wash says is funny. I also love it when in "The Train Job" Jayne says: "Do you know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go get and beat you with till you know who's in ruttin' command here!" Then later, after he's succumbed to being sedated and he's lying in a heap on one of the gangways. Mal comes in, gives him a puzzled look, and Kaylee says: "We tried to get him to the infirmary; he's just.....heavy"

How 'bout:

Mal: I gotta know how close the Alliance is, exactly how much you told them before Wash scrambled your call. So...I've given Jayne here the job of findin' out.

Mal: Jayne, how many guns are you takin'? You only got the two arms.
Jayne: Well, I just get excitable as to choice. Like to have my options open.
Mal: No grenades!

in Our Mrs. Reynolds, Shepard verifies that Mal is actually married to Saffron.

Mal, in total disbelief, walks up to Jayne and says
"How drunk was I last night?"

and Jayne grunts back "Well I don't know, I passed out."

also, another Our Mrs. Reynolds moment:

"You got a wife? All I got was that dumb-ass stick sounds like it's raining. How come you get a wife?"

I am going to have to go with Wash in "The Message"

Talking to the alien/cow fetus:
"Do not fear me...ours is a peaceful race and we must live in harmony."

Funniest thing ever!

Also, in same show, when Simon and Kaylee are along and he says that she is pretty much the only girl in the world because everyone else he knows is married, professional, or closely related! And then Zoe comes in and Simon says he isn't very good at taling to girls, and Zoe says:

"Why, is there someone you are good at talking to?"

Then later in the scene, River calles Simon a boob for what he said to Kaylee.

I mean, that is just good TV!

The entire episode of "Our Mrs. Reynolds" makes we me laugh out loud, no matter how many times I watch it. Everything from when he opens the crate to the very end is just hilarious.

Some of my other favorites are below:
MAL: You're very lacking in imagination.
ZOE: Imagine that's so, sir.

MAL: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea.
ZOE: Thanks for saying so, sir.

MAL: Did you get word to Patience?
WASH: Yeah, she'll be waiting for us. Didn't she try to shoot you once?
MAL: Everybody's making a fuss.

MAL: Define interesting.
WASH: Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die?

SIMON: Could you not do that while we're - ever?
SIMON: I'm trying to think of a way you could be cruder, but nothing's coming to me.

MAL: (gesturing to River-in-a-box) Oh, is this one for you? You two look - Ah!

It's the wit and humor of Joss Whedon that first hooked me on Buffy, Angel, Firefly and Serenity.

Joss is GENIUS!!!

I have a few. One of them's the one on my signature, from the deleted scene Inara and Sheydra.
Inara: "Captain Reynolds never touched me, all he ever did was rent me a shuttle and be very, very annoying...(something possibly insulting in Chinese)"
Hi-larious, I giggle madly every time...

From, uhm, Ariel, I think it was, when Jayne spits on the knife or something, making this really nasty noise...
Simon: "Could you not do that while we're like...ever?"

Our Mrs. Reynolds, when Inara hastily explains why she fell even though no one gives a damn...
Zoe: "...and Inara found you here."
Inara: "And then my head got hurt, like Wash."
Mal: "I don't get this."
Inara: "I only fell, is all!"

Then a few moments later, when Simon goes to examine her...
Inara: "No no no, I don't need to be examined...I'm comfy..."

The Message, when Wash is poking fun at Simon after Kaylee yelling at Simon in the cow fetus scene. Is that a sentence?
Wash: "Oh my GOD it's GROTESQUE! Oh, and there's something in a jar."

In the BDM, when Mal goes to rescue Inara...
Operative: "Captain Reynolds, you should know, so you don't waste your time, you cannot anger me."
Inara: "Please, spend an hour with him."

Same scene...
Mal: "Thought an Albatross was a ship's good luck, 'til some idiot killed it. Yes, I've read a poem, try not to faint."

Captain Reynolds never touched me, all he did was rent me a shuttle and be very, very annoying!

All of you are sorely mistaken. The funniest scene in the whole series and film combined is the first act of comedy in the whole thing. How could all of you forget:

Mail: Kaylee's dead.
(Simon running frantically to the infirmary with no sound, only emotional music only to find Kaylee up and fine)
(Cut to the bridge of Serenity abruptly)
Everyone: HA HA HA HA!

That was one of the funniest things I have ever seen in the history of my TV viewing. That is clearly the best funny of the whole deal.

Of course, this is followed closely by Wash's encounter with the alien cow fetus. That gets me too.

Remember, that but for one trifling exception, the entire universe is made up of others.- Oliver Wendall Holmes

Also from same - Wash talking tough whilst tooling up, then brandishing the pansiest little purse gun ever.

And Mal and Wash arguing over Zoe whilst being tortured...
Wash: "Screw you!"
Mal: "Get in line."

"We need a hood ornament."

Wash: Hey, I've been in a fire fight!

Mal: *disbelieving look*

Wash: Well...I was in a fire.

Mal: *rolls eyes*

Wash: Actually...I was fired...from a fry cook opportunity.
