Fave TV Show Episodes Of All-Time?

[renegade_killerbee]

Here's mine:

1. DYNASTY, ABC, 1982
It's been 25-years since I saw the scene but it centered around a
dinner conversation where Blake was berating his gay son Steven
for the umpteenth time and Steven, as played gloriously by Al
Corley, got up and demanded somebody repeat it after him,
"Steven Is Gay!" Finally, Fallon said those words. As a ten- year-
old, this affected me profoundly.

2. DALLAS, CBS, 1986
The season premiere for the tenth season. Bobby, in his naked
glory asked Pam why she was staring at him in the shower. She
told him about the dream she had just had, which took up the
entire 1985-86 season. They made love and things went on like
nothing had ever happened.

3. TWIN PEAKS, ABC, 1990
David Lynch's TV masterpiece. The utterly bizarre episode where
we find out who indeed killed Laura Palmer. It was so drawn out
though that by the time we found out: 7 months after her death,
we didn't care. BTW, it was her nutty dad. He also killed his
niece who resembled Laura (because it was the same actress?)

4. WILL & GRACE, NBC, 2003
Never a fan of this show. I did tune in to see Madonna make her
first ever TV appearance. The writing was so dead on perfect even
if her TV acting was just as bad as her big screen acting.

5. LOST, ABC, 2007
The season finale to season three, "Through The Looking Glass."
Those poor deserted island people thinking they're gonna get
off that island. The flashbacks to the series' 2010 climax. This one
delivered and delivered ... more questions, that is!

Okay, what are yours?

Wow. I wouldn't say these as my absolute favorites - I'd need more time to think that over - but they're ones I loved watching, and the first ones that came to mind.

DINOSAURS
Robbie (L) comes out. Kind of. He goes to his first Carnivores Club meeting...and realizes he's a vegetarian. His friend admits that he's a vegetarian, too, and they bond over this. It's pretty clear what vegetarianism was filling in for. ("Geez, Dave, how long have you known?" "I've always kind of suspected. Ever since I was twelve, every time I see vegetables, I feel kinda...hungry." They're later harrassed with taunts of "Herbo!").

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES
"The Maltese Hamster". One of two episodes obviously written by somebody with a very warped sense of humor. The basic plotline is tossed out the window as Donatello hunts for a secret fuel formula hidden inside a hamster statue. Simple plot, but the one-liners come fast and furious. A bunch of my friends and I still say, "And don't eat candy without a wrapper!" thanks to this episode.

GARGOYLES
"Deadly Force". Only the third episode after the opening "movie". Broadway flies to the movies alone, sees a Western, then stops by Eliza's apartment for dinner. While cooking his steak, Broadway spies her gun hanging up (she's a cop). He pulls it out, plays with it a bit...and accidentally shoots Eliza in the back. The rest of the episode deals with Broadway trying to get her medical attention (without having anyone give HIM any attention), and then trying to work up the nerve to tell his clanmates while they vow to avenge her shooter. Masterfully done. Perhaps TOO well-done. Every episode of Gargoyles is rerun on Toon Disney...except this one. Too traumatic, apparently.

No, Pretty Pete, I didn't see the "Dallas" thingie on "Family Guy" (since I kinda hate that show more than anything else on the planet!).

But I'm kinda happy that what Victoria and Patrick did in the 1980's lives on. It wasn't a dream. It was a dream show. The best God-damned show ever!

 

[falconfan]

The Simpsons Marge vs Monorail
and Supernatural In My Time Of Dying part 2 pop to mind but I'd need more time to create the most accurate list

 

[NineOfClubs]

Final episode of Six Feet Under.

The series finale to Malcolm in the Middle.

The Frasier episode where his new boss thinks Frasier is gay and "into" him.

But a show I'll never forget, and cannot believe that such a story could be told in only an hour, was Star Trek: Next Generation The Inner Light Season 5, Episode 25.

This is the one where Picard spends one hour living an entire lifetime on another planet, a dying one, to awaken on the bridge of the Enterprise remembering the way of life of a lost civilization.

"edith's crisis of faith"

the episode when beverly lasalle was murdered for being a female impersonator
and different. and she blamed god.

Edith is still grieving over the death of her female-impersonator friend, Beverly LaSalle, who was killed by a vicious street gang for no reason other than being "different." So shaken is Edith that nothing can snap her out of her depression. Not even the Christmas season can lift her spirits; in fact, she has renounced her faith in God, appalled that He would allow such a horrible thing to happen

from all in the family

i was just a kid when i realized that people can hate you because of who you are.
