Is there any hope that one of Simon's might be Jayne's pajama tops?
Matt, I'm sad to say I can't see Simon at all.
We're looking at a "ghost town", right? A planet where something has killed all the people, or all the people in this city, so that they've died and lain where they fell. They're all on the same set, I'm fairly sure-- in #3, you can see the stylised-solar-system-thing from #0, the method-of-transport from #1, and the body from #4. I can't place the dead guy in #2 in #3, but given the similarities between #2 and #4, I'm going to take a wild guess and say they were struck down by the same kind of thing. Though #2's position is interesting; he (wild guess on gender there; I'm called #2 he and #4 she, purely on the basis of dress) fell down backwards, as if facing a blast or gun when it went off.
#5 is the camera crew facing either an entranceway or a spaceship that crashed into a building; #6 is the crew again, with (I think) Inara, Mal, and Joss just visible in the background (is that Joss, behind, just between the two techy-looking people wearing jeans? Can someone confirm that for me?); and in #7 we have probably-Inara, and definately Mal. Rather hidden tightpants! happy dance

Looks like his head to me.
I also didn't see Simon in any of the pics, just Inara and Mal.
The presence of Joss makes me feel confident that whatever's happening in the scene and whatever their lines are, it's going to be good and worth watching. They're very feel-good pictures: in Joss I trust, and such like.
Saw Joss in spoiler pics. Saw Mal in spoiler pics. Saw Inara (who looked worried, uncertain, extremely slender) in spoiler pics.
t Hangs head in shame at falling off spoiler wagon.
I'm guessing we are seeing Reaver aftermath.
I'm not sure that is Inara.
Any suggestions, then, Tamara? I wondered, but decided that was the safest guess.
It looks like Inara to me. Shiny pictures, grommit. Although I would say slightly more spoilerish than costumes. Not that I'm complaining. It just makes me wish that April 22nd were much closer!
Wait! I had a spoilerish thingy. No big secret just a casting bit I got off of IMDB. The girl who played the Newly Activated Slayer at Bat in the last Buffy ep has a part in Serenity.
