I know it's early yet in the series, but how would you rank the episodes that we've seen so far? Starting with the most favorite down to least favorite.

1. Out of Gas
2. Our Mrs. Reynolds
3. Jaynestown
4. Serenity
5. Bushwacked
6. Train Job
7. Shindig

I actually think that the first 4 episodes on my list are equally great, but for different reasons, so it was kind of hard to rank those.

1) Out of Gas - "Ship'll be with you till the day you die."
2) Serenity - "We're still flying."
3) Jaynestown - "Enemies? You? No, how can it be?"
4) Our Mrs. Reynolds - "I knew you kissed her!"

5) Shindig - "Mercy is the mark of a great man... I guess I'm just OK."
6) Train Job - "What are we doing?" / "Oh! Crime." / "Crime? ... Good."
7) Bushwacked - "You ever been with a warrior woman?"

NONONSENSE

I have only seen 3 eps:

1) Out of gas - this one was GREAT! (story, directing, editing, acting...)
2) Shindig
3) Jaynestown

How can I get a hold of previous eps? If the show picks up I would just wait for the re-runs, I guess. I am sure the show will make it, FOX is not stupid.

I haven't seen Serenity yet! agh!

But aside from that...

1. Out of Gas is clearly the best. I could watch it daily!

2. Our Mrs. Reynolds. I used to watch it daily.

A very different kind of good, but nonetheless worth watching.

3. Jaynestown. for whenever I get an urge to sing!

4. Shindig. "somewhat less attractive now that she's all corpsified and gross"

5. Bushwacked. I liked the interrogations!

6. Trainjob. Eh..i have to watch it again. But i don't have it taped.

"Out of Gas" was definitely my favorite so far. And of course, it was the one I didn't get on tape so I've only gotten to see it once.

"Jaynestown" is probably my second favorite because, well, Jayne.

Warrick: You didn't have to wound that man.
Mal: Yeah, I know. It was just funny.

Dammit, LI, stop reading my mind. This is my list but for the last two. I'd probably switch them. The Reavers kind of give me the heebie-jeebies. And the Train Job was just disappointing after the truly great Serenity.

The last two were kind of a coin toss situation for me, to tell the truth...

Nononsense, e-mail me at mothspiral@yahoo.com about ep copies.

Out of Gas is the only episode that is far above the rest...which are way down below it. I also notice Out of Gas wasn't written by Joss. Coincidence?

Since I am still waiting for "Serenity" to air, I only have six episodes to rank.

1) "Our Mrs. Reynolds": special hell place, Darla-like antagonist, that steamy scene with Saffron and Inara!!!

2) "Out of Gas": Apollo 13-style accident, sex in the engine room, funny whore stories!!!

3) "Jaynestown": Robin Hood folk songs, Kaylee getting Simon drunk, biblical plausibilness!!!

4) "Shindig": gosha, dress bought from a store, no backing down from a fight!!!

5) "The Train Job": problem with brain being missing, reputation only gossip, that's sweet!!!

6) "Bushwhacked": a real beast, definitely the legs, what's with the suit?!!!

I've enjoyed all these episodes really. Yes, I did think "Bushwhacked" could have been better, but I wasn't going to change the channel.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Out of Gas, definitely.

Has the best parts of B5 and Downbelow Station.

Worst, I thought, was Shindig. It made the crew look like stupid lumps. Humor is OK, but not when it's cutting the characters down so relentlessly.
