Best TV Episode

[Shevin Keedy]

EDIT: To put a lighter one in there, Stress Relief from the US Office. Has one of the best opening scenes ever and the scene with the woman teaching CPR is pretty much perfect. Incredible episode.

I want to go and watch this now but I can't think what series; is the episode called Stress Relief?

No it doesn’t. Just pick your best TV episodes.

Some things are important for very different reasons. How that reflects upon 'best' is thereafter subjective.

Obviously. That’s the point of the thread.

Haha so it is. Got it on now.

Every now and then, something towers above all else.

The poignancy and sadness of this still resonates today. Picked.

Sopranos is superb.

I think I watched it for the first time last year or something, it really is as good as people say.

You are missing out if you dont watch it.

MY favourite was always Dexter - The final Trinity Episode.

Or The Shield - The Woggins scene, you all know the 1.

They are the 1s that stick in my head the most.

Started Dexter about a month ago and watched this tonight, it was brilliant.

World At War-Holocaust episode. Particularly chilling back in the day when it was first shown.

I ain’t seen Sopranos so feel like I’m missing out on some piney barrens.

Although most of the episodes can be considered "stand-alones", and all worth a look in their own right. I feel that Pine Barrens is a bit of an outlier, it's considered one of the greatest episodes because of the dynamic between Chris and Paulie which has been built up over all the series that went first.

If you wanted to dip your toe in and just try The Sorpranos then Pine Barrens is great, but you probably wouldn't think it as good as most people say. If you get a chance it's well worth immersing yourself right from series one (not the best series tbh); just as I intend to do with The Wire.

The X-files - Jose Chung's From Outer Space
Castle - The Lives of Others
Millennium - The Mikado

I'm a sucker for procedurals and these are some of the best, all for different reasons.
