Shiny, huh?

( 5 points for telling me the show these are from, 10 points for spotting the custom replicas, and 20 for spotting the reference in one of their names ;) )

Yeah, some of the cast's fake names are punes ( Or plays on words ) [/pratchett].

My name's a reference to a completely different show, though...

Think 70s/80s comedy...

All BUT one?

OK, for the cast:
Jayne is Kiki Larue.
Wash is E. Norma Scleavages.
Mal is Miles Arixoen
Zoe is Q Kumamota

Kat is Elvisa M Frog - A reference to an incident at her old job that you won't get unless you were there...

And I'm Benjamin F. Tuttle...

No idea - But you're gonna be gutted it was cancelled when you get to the end.
Have you seen Serenity yet?

( BTW... Benjamin F. Tuttle is an amalgam of two "characters" from one TV show. )
