Greatest episode of anything

[cleaver]

What is your all-time favorite episode of anything. Has to be a single episode, no 2 parters.
I'll go with the Cape Fear Simpsons by a hair over the Cheers when Cliff was on Jeopardy.

[wendersfan]

I can narrow it down to three (in chronological order):

The Days and Nights of Molly Dodd - "Here's a Little Known Story About Ingrid Bergman"

Twin Peaks - The episode with the "rock and bottle test" and Agent Cooper's first dream sequence

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - "Once More, With Feeling"

[Shannon Nutt]

The one where we find out who killed Laura Palmer on Twin Peaks.

this is the episode where Leyland kills Maddie and the old waiter comes up to Cooper in the Roadhouse and says "I'm so sorry..."

This episode was both heart-breaking and scary as hell.

This episode was both heart-breaking and scary as hell. "It is happening again. It is happening again." I still get creeped out thinking about it, and it's been over a decade.

[bigdawgx]

The episode of Saved By the Bell with the driver's ed car crisis.

[das Monkey]

Yikes, that's tough. Some contenders:

Vitameatavegemin
Requiem for a Heavyweight
Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge
Sleeping in Light
Chuckles Bites the Dust
The Body
The $99,000 Answer
City on the Edge of Forever
Coast-to-Coast Big Mouth

And, let's round it out to 10 with Sammy's Visit.

Of course, hands down, the obvious winner is Jessie's Song. Why even bother discussing what we all know is true.

das

[joltaddict]

Bad Girls from Buffy Season three.

[MrR0boto]

Jessie's Song has a lot going for it - especially Hot Sunday. Everyone seems to overlook the episode that aired just before it: Miss Bayside. That would be my choice.

[Smidget]

Wow some really good picks, I love both of those Twin Peak ones.

My favorite is probably The Sopranos - Pine Barrens though. Perfect :)

[Gil Jawetz]

Three Men and Adena, Homicide

[Decker]

College - The Sopranos
Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose - X-Files
The One Where Everyone Finds Out - Friends
The Matchmaker - Fraiser

[RobCA]

The Simpsons: Homer's Phobia
Frasier: The Two Mrs. Cranes
Buffy: Once More, With Feeling
Friends: The One with the Prom Video
The X-Files: The Post-Modern Prometheus

ST:TNG - Tapestry
Ed - Captain Lucidity

[LBCrazyFool]

Simpsons - Marge vs. the Monorail
Freaks and Geeks - Discos and Dragons
The Sopranos - Pine Barrens
Friends - The One with the Embryos

[movielib]

Seinfeld - The Soup Nazi

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Hush

I'm not that big a fan of E.R. but Love's Labor Lost from the first season was one of the best hours of TV I've ever seen.

[jeffkjoe]

MARY TYLER MOORE - "Chuckles Bites the Dust"

E.R. - Another vote for "Love's Labor Lost"

SEINFELD - "The Contest"

FRIENDS - "The One Where Nobody is Ready"

FRASIER - "The Ski Lodge"

THE SIMPSONS - "Marge Vs. The Monorail"

STAR TREK: TNG - "The Best of Both Worlds Part I"

THE KING OF QUEENS - "Food Fight" (Doug becomes a taste-tester for Spencer's chef girlfriend)

[B.A.]

Scrubs - "My Screw Up"

And just about every other episode of Scrubs is great, too. Or at least near great.

[birdseye]

ER - Love's Labor Lost
Ed - Captain Lucidity
The West Wing - Two Cathedrals
The Shield - Dominoes Falling
Friends - The One With The Prom Video

There were television shows before 1990

[Drexl]

Mr. Show - "Eat Rotten Fruit From A Shitty Tree"

[Easy]

WKRP in Cincinnati - "Turkeys Away"

[Doc Moonlight]

FAWLTY TOWERS-"The Germans"

[RobCA]

It was hard enough limiting myself to 5, without including pre-1990 shows. -ptth-

But I could definitely add I Love Lucy's "Job Switching" and MTM's "Chuckles Bites the Dust" to my list.

Rob

[Michael Corvin]

Woody's wedding on Cheers. You never get to see the ceremony. The entire hour is spent in the kitchen. Hilarious.

-------------------------------------

I had to pick more than one, cause well...I think I can.

<b>M*A*S*H - Abyssinia, Henry</b>

<b>Friends - The One With The Thumb</b> (this isn't a groundbreaking episode, but it had me in stitches for the full half hour.)

<b>All In The Family - Edith's 50th Birthday or The Bunkers and the Swingers</b> ( I find Sammy's Visit overrated)

<b>Happy Days - The Motorcycle</b> (see Friends)

<b>Six Feet Under - The Room</b>

[das Monkey]

I'm obsessed with the Rat Pack, so I'm admittedly biased on that one. :)

das

[TheAllPurposeNothing]

"Zen and the Art of Cab Driving" - Taxi (featuring the single best closing line in the history of television, IMHO)

"Battle of the PBS Stars" - SCTV

"The Dream Sequence Always Rings Twice" - Moonlighting

"Ted Baxter's Famous Broadcasters' School" -MTM (School song.."We've got no football team. We've got no pool. But we've got plenty of heart at Ted Baxter's Famous Broadcasters' School.")

"Nice Guys Finish Dead" - The Rockford Files

And my all-time favorite episode of any show...

"You Saved My Life!" - The Odd Couple

If not, well, then carry on. :D

[nemein]

B5 - The Very Long Night Londo Malari

Stargate SG1 - The Changeling

Firefly - Objects in Space

The Sandbaggers - Operation Kingmaker

STNG - The Inner Light

The Final eps of Newheart

The MASH eps where everyone is up so long they are day-dreaming/delusional (can't recall the name)

[badger1997]

I don't know the names of most of the episodes I liked, but I will give it a try.

The episode of "Taxi" where Reverand Jim takes his written driver's test always has me in stitches.

"What does a yellow light mean?"
"Go slower."
"What.....does....a....yellow...light....mean?" rotfl

I was a big fan of Mork and Mindy growing up and the episode where Mork meets Robin Williams was always one of my favorites.

I would also have to second the episode of "Cheers" with Woody's marriage and I also loved the one with Kevin McHale where they count the bolts in the floor at Boston Gardens.

But I think my favorite of all was the ER episode where Ewan McGregor guest starred as the Irish guy who was robbing the convenience store that Julianna Marguiles character was in. It just had me riveted and of course it helped that I was already a big Ewan McGregor fan back then. :)

[JMLEWIS1]

Seinfeld "The Contest"

L&O "Aftershock"

[Quake1028]

Freaks and Geeks - "Boyfriends and Girlfriends"

[Tscott]

Mad About You - "Natural History" I aways get surprised how emotional the ending of this one makes me.

Dick Van Dyke Show - "That's My Boy?" saw this in reruns without knowing anything about its history and was in stitches at the ending.

Also have to agree on Moonlighting - "Atomic Shakespeare", The X-Files "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose" and even though overexposure has since watered down its impact IMO Seinfeld - "The Contest" had me laughing harder than I ever had at any TV show before or since when it first aired.

For some reason, single episodes of serial dramas are a little harder for me to pick out, since I tend to lump whole story arcs together in my mind.

[das Monkey]

• Tscott •

Dick Van Dyke Show - "That's My Boy?" saw this in reruns without knowing anything about its history and was in stitches at the ending.

Good lord das, I'm almost twice as old as you, that's depressing. I didn't watch much TV (besides Cheers and Hill Street Blues) until I went to college in '86, so that's really my point of reference.

Here's a few older titles I really liked

Moonlighting "Witness For The Execution" (and of course "Dream Sequence")

Taxi -- "Cooking For Two" & "Simka Returns"

Fawlty Towers "Basil the Rat" (aka "The Health Inspector")

Cheers - "Old Flames", "Simon Says" (John Cleese again), and a special spot in my heart for "The Visiting Lecher", since I went to the filming of that episode

China Beach : "Tet '68"

And believe it or not, the 1986 William Shatner episode of SNL. That was a classic.

"And next up is Pamela Denberg Doohan, the ex-wife of course of James 'Scotty' Doohan, and I understand life with the Enterprise's Chief Mechanical Officer <i>was</i> somewhat turbulent ... kinda like living with a <i>MUGATU!</i> Yeah! Well you'll all be able to meet Pamela in the Briar Wing where she'll be signing copies of her new book, <b>Beam Me Outta Here</b>!" :lol:

And my personal motto, taken from that very episode: "There's a whole world out there! When I was your age, I didn't watch television ... I <i>lived</i>!!!" Words to live by ... words to live by.

Buffy: "Earshot"

Not the best episode of the show, by far, but the closing shot cracks me up every time.

Fawlty Towers: "Communication Problems"

Babylon 5: "Severed Dreams"

All I can think of at 3AM.

"Measure of a Man" sounds familiar, which one was that? My fav ST-TNG episode was the one where a probe causes Picard to live the whole life of a man on a distant planet... I still think of that, especially the final scene with the friends and family, and the final scene of the episode with him playing the flute.

I agree with a lot here (especially Vitameatavegamin!! :lol: ), but to add a few:

Ally McBeal: the one where Robert Downey Jr.'s character sings a song he wrote to her (loved their relationship), and another episode where Ally is representing one side of a legal battle where a poor man wants to give his healthy heart to his sick richer friend... I think it was a crossover episode with Practice? Excellent, excellent dialog in that one.

:Designing Women: the one where Charlene goes to meet Bill's family, and the dialog she has with Bill's mother in the dining room, or the one where she meets him (she thinks he's not a real officer, then dreams they're both back in WWII), or (funniest one) the episode where the redesign a nudist colony. :D I LOVE that show, still! :)

That's all I can think of at the moment... I agree, it's hard to think of great episodes in dramas... also, it's hard because there are many great MOMENTS, but not overly great episodes... I LOVED the Friend's episode where they won the apartment, but wasn't impressed with the whole episode, just that one scene, if I recall correctly. :) Still hilarious, though! :D

[Apone]

Band of Brothers: Part 5 - I heard "Crossroads" is the least favoured episode by majority. I thought it was quiet unique from other episodes; had warmness, simple flashbacks and in-depth exploration of characters. It also had two companies of SS shot the hell out of! I just ignored the historical concept and went for viewing pleasure (pure violence). Bejesus! :D

National Geographic: The Last Feast of the Crocodiles - One of documentary based episodes I guess. Hippos, crocodiles, a lioness, bees, birds, baboons, gazelles and other animals I can't name all live around a small pound. It was hilarious, fascinating and scary. A crocodile snaps on a head of baboon but escapes with a fight and hippos licking/slobbing on crocodiles. The ending was wonderful and fulfilling, equivalent to such films like Shawshank Redemption. :P

The Simpsons - This is the craziest and hardest of them all. Can't choose between The Flying Hellfish and Bart being Mr. Burns' son.

...
http://www.starfleetlibrary.com/tng/tng2/the_measure_of_a_man.htm
When the U.S.S. Enterprise arrives at the newly established Starbase 173, Data is ordered to serve under Captain Bruce Maddox, who wishes to disassemble and study him so that more androids can be made for Starfleet's use.

But after Data learns that Maddox may not be able to reassemble him, he refuses to submit to the procedure. When Captain Picard is unable to have the orders changed, Data's only option is to resign from Starfleet. His decision to resign, however, is challenged by Maddox on the basis that Data is not a person with rights, but property of the Federation.

The J.A.G. (Judge Advocate General) officer of the starbase, Phillipa Louvois, an old acquaintance of Picard, rules that Maddox's contention is supported by a twenty-first century precedent. Picard announces that he will challenge that ruling at a hearing. Insufficiently staffed, Phillipa explains that as senior officer, Picard would have to defend Data, while the next most senior officer, Riker, would have to prosecute. A stickler for the law, Phillipa warns that if Riker does not give his best effort, she will summarily rule in favor of Maddox.

Faced with no other choice, Riker must contend in his prosecution that Data is simply a machine - the creation of man - and dramatically emphasizes his point by approaching Data from behind and switching him off, leaving him lifeless in his seat. Certain of his defeat, Picard has a discussion with Guinan and she suggests that the Federation's desire to create and own a race of disposable androids is the recreation of slavery...
This is my favorite Star Trek episode (from any of the series) and probably the most libertarian episode of all the Star Trek programs. It's not surprising because it was written by Melinda M. Snodgrass who is a strong libertarian and author of the Circuit trilogy of novels (which I recommend). Snodgrass also served as Story Editor and Executive Script Consultant during parts of Seasons 2 and 3 and left because of creative differences with Gene Roddenberry (who was very unlibertarian).

[chowderhead]

the season finale of Season 2 ( I think) for Melrose Place when Kimberley comes back from the dead and you see her standing outside of Michael's beach house. That was the greatest episode for that show.

Babylon 5: The Coming of Shadows, Severed Dreams, Sleeping in Light

Star Trek: The Trouble With Tribbles, City on the Edge of Forever

Star Trek TNG: Yesterday's Enterprise, The Inner Light, Best of Both Worlds 1

Moonlighting: Atomic Shakespeare, The Dream Sequence Always Rings Twice, Big Man on Mulberry Street

West Wing: What Kind of Day Has It Been, Two Cathedrals, and all the various big block of cheese episodes

Sports Night: Smoky, Ten Wickets, What Kind of Day Has It Been (yes, Sorkin loves this title), Quo Vadimus

MASH: A War For All Seasons, Cementing Relationships

Seinfeld: The Contest

Spy Game: With Friends Like These (a show that about seven people watched)

My So-Called Life: So-Called Angels

Buffy: Once More With Feeling, Lie To Me, Bewitched Bothered and Bewildered (whatever the title is)

Barney Miller: Atomic Bomb

Others I thought of included episodes from Alien Nation, Max Headroom, Twilight Zone, Night Court, and others.


When it comes right down to it, no hour of tv has ever affected me emotionally like Sleeping in Light, so I have to go with that, with the incomparable brilliance of Atomic Shakespeare second.

Babylon 5--can't remember the names of them, but there were several episodes (probably those already nominated) that I thought were fantastic. Same for Farscape, in a lighter way.

Buffy-- Life Serial (strangely, my favorite episode even though I know many are more acclaimed. I think it's the identification I felt for the nerds, who can argue over the best James Bond in spite of all the other stuff going on (and it is Sean Connery. . . .). Also, Jonathon has a magic bone; that has to count for something. The Gift and Once More With Feeling are other favorites.
