I gotta disagree with you. Toy Story was. Most people forget that was him who wrote it. Anyway, in television I would go for the Buffy Musical, which stands as my favorite single episode of television.
I think that Firefly would have been ultimately a better series than buffy or angel, if only for the superior cast interactions. It took the Buffy cast a few seasons to really work as well together as the Firefly cast did inside of a few episodes. That said, I think the firefly WORSHIP would have been significantly less. While the "Browncoats" can certainly be annoyingly devoted, they were largely responsible for the rise of the film, so I have no big qualms with them.
I Am Not Amused:
I have to say, I am one of those rabid Firefly fanboys. I thought the show was intelligent, hilarious, harrowing and interesting. The only weakness I could find in it is that there was very little reason for TV viewers to watch week-to-week as the episodes often had little if anything to do with one another.
Also, more random Firefly quotes!
Jayne: "Does anyone remember when she came after me with a butcher's knife?"
Wash: *wistfully* "Wacky fun..."
Jayne: "You wanna go, little man?"
Wash: "Only if it's somewhere with candlelight."
Zoey: "I don't think she would HURT anyone."
Jayne: "Butcher's knife?!"
Zoey: "Anyone we can't spare."
Simon: "Are you alliance?"
Early: "Am I a lion? Well, I don't think of myself as a lion, but you might as well. I've got a mighty roar."
Simon: "I said are you alliance."
Early: "Oh...I thought."
Simon: "No."
Early: "That's weird."
Simon: "Are you a bounty hunter?"
Early: "No, that ain't it at all."
Simon: "Then what are you?"
Early: "I'm a bounty hunter."
"THE HERO OF CANTON THE MAN THEY CAAAALL JAYNE"
Zoey: "No one's saying you have to come."
Jayne: "Good. I don't know these people. Don't want to."
Mal: "They're whores."
Jayne: *immediately* "I'm in."
Nishka: "You died, Mr. Reynolds."
Mal: "Seemed like the thing to do."
Mal: "Did you tell her?"
Zoey: "Tell me what?"
Mal: "Your husband has demanded we sleep together. Figures it'll get all that sexual tension out in the open."
Wash: "What? Mal, no! That was the torture talking! Remember? The torture?"
Zoey: "I understand, sir. We have no choice. Take me, sir. Take me hard."
Jayne: "Now that's just unsettling."
Early, trapped floating in space: "Well. Here I am."
AllBad:
Ahhh! I love the "lion" exchange. Early's one of those characters I'd love to have seen more on, in whatever way...I've always thought it'd be way too awesome if he showed up in some of the earlier episodes, on the fringe of a crowd or just at the very edge of the screen...Just enough to point out and be "OMGITSEARLYHOLYSHIZZ". He's said he'd been tracking them for forever, anyway.
"You wanna go, Little Man?" Aww. I love Wash. Hate the mustache in the flashback, though. Dear lord, that was horrible.
River: "Jayne" is a girl's name.
Jayne: Well, Jayne ain't a girl! She starts in on that girl's-name thing, [reaches into his pants] I'll show her good 'n' all, I got man parts!
Simon: I'm? trying to think of a way for you to be cruder. I just? it's not coming.
Zo?: First rule of battle, little one? don't ever let them know where you are.
[Cut to Mal, firing behind himself as he runs toward the two.]
Mal: WHOO-HOO! I'M RIGHT HERE! I'M RIGHT HERE! YOU WANT SOME O' ME?! YEAH YOU DO! COME ON! COME ON! AAAAAH!
[He lands with a grunt behind some nearby rocks.]
Mal: Whoo-hoo!
Zo?: Course, there're other schools of thought.
Mal: Whew! Ha. That was bracing. They don't like it when you shoot at 'em. I worked that out myself.
I Am Not Amused:
Zoey, upon first meeting her future husband: "I don't like him."
Wash, being interrogated by the Alliance, about his wife: "The legs! It was definately the legs. You can write that down. The legs and where her back meets her legs. Actually, that whole area...and above it."
Inara: "What did I say about barging onto my shuttle?"
Mal: "That it was manly and impulsive?"
Mal, Confused about Wash and Zoey's arguing: "Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry....and I'm armed. So if you two have something you need to work out..."
River, to Jayne: "Also, I can kill you with my brain."
Mal, to Inara: "This distress call wouldn't be takin' place in someone's pants, now would it?"
Mal: "I'll introduce you to the crew, they're good people."
Jayne: "Can I start gettin' sexed?"
Mal: "Well, that one's kind of horrific."
Mal: "This is the last time. Last time with cows. There was an idea with beagles! I believe they have smallish droppings?"
Shepherd, after being shot, to Mal: "I think I need a preacher."
Mal: "That's good. You lie there and be ironical."
Jayne, after seeing Inara take a female client to her shuttle: "I'll be in my bunk."
greenMonkey:
One of the funniest quotes came from the bloopers on the Serenity DVD.
Mal: "Get these bodies together, I want them roped across the front of the ship. Kaylee! Go find that kid who's taking a dirt nap with baby Jesus, we need a hood ornament. Jayne! Try not to steal too much of their shit!"
