Some Favorite Episodes Of Mine
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Must Watch Episodes
Topic: List-O-Mania
I was going to give a list of TV shows I love, but that will be sometime in the future. For the time being however, I am going to give a list of individual episodes that are favorites of mine. This is in no particular order. You may disagree and have your own list, no problem, we all have different tastes!

Chicago Hope- Quarantine: The formula is simple, a group of doctors are put into isolation because they may or may not have contracted a contagious disease from a patient. The group includes a married couple on the brink of divorce, the hospital lothario, a harried "temporary" Chief Of Staff and one doctor who some think is two steps shy of being committed. Its a wonderful episode, and sadly watching it reminds one of how bad the show gets in the later seasons (musical episode anyone?).

Buffy The Vampire Slayer- Hush: Some very creepy beings steal the voices of the populace, the "Scooby gang" try to get them back. The majority of this episode is silent, so the characters are forced to other ways to communicate. I wasn't a big Buffy fan, but when the show was good, as in this episode, it was excellent.

Star Trek Deep Space Nine- Trials and Tribble-ations: In this episode some of the Deep Space Nine crew are thrown back in time and end up in the timeline of the original Star Trek Crew - The episode "Trouble with Tribbles" to be exact. They interact with characters from an episode from thirty years ago without making it seem corny or stupid. A classic DS9 episode.

Angel - Hero: I love Angel, so there is a lot of episodes I love, including "You're Welcome", and "Smile Time" (aka the "Angel is turned into a puppet" episode). The best one is this early outing in the first season. Half-Demon, Half-Human Doyle makes the ultimate sacrifice to save his friends and his fellow demons. Sadly a few years later Glenn Quinn passed away, making this episode all the more poignant.

Friends - The One With The Prom Video: Rachel finds out via an old video that Ross has had feelings for her for a long time. And thus the "Ross and Rachel" roller coaster begins.

NCIS - Meat Puzzle: A gruesome episode where Dr Donald "Ducky" Mallard discovers that several bodies...actually several pieces of bodies, that were found are related to a court case he was part of years ago. Bad news? He may be next.

CSI - The Hunger Artist: Like with Angel, there are a lot of episodes of this show I like, including "Unfriendly Skies" and "Justice Is Served". This episode, along with another case, deals with a woman found dead in a shopping cart and a homeless woman who may be involved.

X-Files - Clyde Bruckmans Final Repose: Clyde Bruckman (guest star Peter Boyle) is a man the agents encounter who can predict how someone is going to die, but can't use this ability to really help find the murderer.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 - I don't have any particular fave, cause it changes every day, but the last one I watched was "Pod People". Other favorites include: "Hercules Unchained" "The Creeping Terror" and the list goes on.

24- Season Three: Season three, or day three, was the "day" about the virus and the hotel and oh a lot of things.

Coming soon: The flip side - the bad episodes.
