I have to narrow it down to at least 2. The first being Out of Gas. This episode shows Mal's love for Serenity and that he cares more for the crew than himself. He'll die on the ship because it was his true freedom from the Alliance after the war was lost.
My second pick would be The Message. This hit me on a personal level. That phrase in the message gets me every time. It seemed to me the most emotional episode.
"When you can't walk, you crawl, and when you can't do that, you find someone to carry you."
And don't forget the funny lines, like, "it looks grotesque! Oh and there's something in a jar!" And can't forget the Jayne hat.

It's hard to pick just one episode, so... I'll just pick my favs on each disc.

Disc 1 - Serenity. Great intro to the series (as a pilot should be).

Disc 2 - Our Mrs. Reynolds. Funny as hell. "That is a dumb planet. You don't stand for it you hear? Somebody tries to kill you... you... you kill them right back."

Disc 3 - Ariel. Just really different from previous episodes. But I think, episode for episode, disc three is the best of the bunch.

Disc 4 - Objects in Space. Early and River are awesome in this one. When another movie comes out, Early should make an apperance.

"What was that?"

Without a doubt my favorite episodes are "Safe" and "The Train Job."

This is because of the SImon/River relationship being advanced, and I like the flashbacks. The Train JOb has Crow (Kral) and I remember watching it as a little kid when it first aired.

I think a little chaos is in order.

I've got to say my favorite is Safe, then Jaynestown, then everything else is all awesome and I'm too lazy to think that any are worse than others.

Out of Gas

Mal- Tactics, woman. Needed her in the back. Besides, those soft cotton dresses feel kinda nice. There's a whole airflow.
Inara: And you'd know that because...?
Mal: You can't open the book of my life and jump in the middle. Like woman, I'm a mystery.

Each episode is my favorite for different reasons. Although I tend to favor the last episode I watched. If I absolutely had to choose it would be Out of Gas. We got to see how the crew joined together and a little background of each of them.

Hard to choose.

I have 3.

Safe, Ariel and Objects in Space.

Safe because Riveerrrr. Ariel because of the drama of Jayne's betrayel and him not wanting to go out in a bad name. And Objects in Space because of the awesome character's... The great Jubal Early AND Riverrrr. (though I do love all the FF characters, I seem to have mixed favors that I can't seem to nail down besides River, Jayne and Jubal... Though more are always tossed around.)

I'm going with "Out Of Gas" as my fave. I get all choked up every time I see it.

"Ariel" is a close second.

I think I swallowed a bug...

Safe............
War stories...............
and finally though not least Objects in space.

the reson for this is clear it is because these are the episodes that you see RIVER in deatail and in her new light she just kicks ass does any body actually think the same

1. Out Of Gas
2. Our Mrs. Reynolds
3. Serenity
4. Objects In Space
5. War Stories

The first few are easy picks for me. After 4 or 5, it gets mighty fuzzy...

RIVERRULES

out of gas lol yeah right

bye far the best is "war stories" juss becauswe you see how all the cruw are bound togeter and care and respect each other though most of the time they do not care to show it.
and the scene were wash and the captin are being electrocuted is very reveling in to the relationship issues of the married couple.

though by far is the all out action and you get to see summer finally kick ass........ well kill 3 guys with 3 shots plus with her eyes close.

so bye far "war stories" is the best followed by "safe", and finally but not lest "objects in space"

river tam plays brillant parts in these 3.

I CAN KILL YOU WITH MY MIND..........

STUBBS

Every episode has different qualities

Serenity (pilot) The moment when Mal walks onboard Serenity and shoots the agent in the head is awesome

War Stories- the best scene in the series is the torture scene. The way Wash and mal continue their argument between each burst of electric shocks is hilarious

Ariel- a great indication of how much of a bastard Jayne can be

Out of gas- Beautifully written and each character gets a great introduction (especially Wash with THAT moustache)

Our Mrs Reynolds- the funniest opening ten minutes of anything ever. 'You shoot them right back! What kind of crappy planet is that anyway?'

Jaynestown- Adam Baldwin 'you had a riot? For me?

Superb series

Hello all,
I'm new to the site but definitely glad to have found it! This is a hard decision though- my favorite episode. I'm gonna go with a a three way tie between The Train Job, Jaynestown, and War Stories. Well, but then there's Shindig and Serenity and Our Mrs. Reynolds...o just forget it, I can't possibly choose!

I love all the episodes for different reasons, so choosing one is pretty difficult. However, my favorite episodes of my favorite episodes (if that makes any sense) are:
Jaynestown
Out of Gas
Our Mrs. Reynolds
Heart of Gold
(But all the episodes are my favorite....)
Oh, I love the 'Verse like Jayne loves Vera!

Objects in Space. I am really into philosophy, and that episode appeals to that part of me.

I guess my second favorite is Ariel. There's just something cool about the crew going directly into the heart of the Alliance, and re-emerging victorious.

My brother burned some Real files of Firefly that's on the internet on some CDs and he gave me a copy. I really like it.

Jayne is SO sexy...arf!

I like them all, but I think Jaynes town and War stories are my favorites. The part in war stories were mal says "You want to meet the real me" is frightening, theres just no other word for it. I also like in the train job were Mal hands the money to one of Niska's henchman who goes on and on about how they will all die. I loved the way Mal says darn it before he kicks the guy into the engine.

You can fix anything if you have a big hammer and enough duct tape.

CRACKERS

Its a toss up between three:-
Definitely "Jaynestown" the bit with River & Books hair just crack me up.
Second - "War Stories", and third - "Objects In Space".

Being CRACKERS provides sanity in an insane world!

My favourite episodes are:
1) Our Mrs Reynolds - I love this episode, it is so funny, Shepherd Book and his special hell speech just makes me laugh every time. And of course 'Some people juggle geese!'
2) Out of Gas - I like all the flashbacks and seeing how they all arrived on the ship. Plus Wash's moustache is hi-lariuos. As is Zoe 'He bothers me'
3) Ariel, War Stories, Objects in Space, Serenity - can't choose between them, love them all.

Easy there is one immediate choice,

Out of Gas - The look on Mal's face when they show him looking at serenity is the best bit

Jaynes town - The greatest song ever sung

Our Mrs Reynolds - When Jayne pulls the curtain away looking like he's about to get his guns out, hilarious!

I know I said 1 but I play dirty
