Greatest episode of anything
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.

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"

The one where we find out who killed Laura Palmer on Twin Peaks.
Spoiler:
This episode was both heart-breaking and scary as hell. |

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

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.

Wow some really good picks, I love both of those Twin Peak ones.
My favorite is probably The Sopranos - Pine Barrens though. Perfect  |

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.

Scrubs - "My Screw Up"
And just about every other episode of Scrubs is great, too. Or at least near great.

I'm going to let you all in on a secret. I've never told anyone this before, but because I like this forum so much, I feel I owe it to you all to be honest. Please keep this to yourselves, though. If it gets out, I'm not sure we could ever recover.

19? Where DO you find the time? I can't keep up with contemporary TV and I was alive during most of the time TV was showing sitcoms.
