Remember the episode where Charlie banged a hooker, Alan whined about his alimony, and Jake said something precocious and dirty? It was the same one where Judith threatened to call her attorney and Bertha said “I’m not cleanin’ that up!” ---

I really liked that episode of The Monkees when they played a song and all kinds of crazy stuff happened around them. ---

> [@blondebear](#): > > I really liked that episode of The Monkees when they played a song and all kinds of crazy stuff happened around them. I love it when shows do musical episodes, like that episode of _Glee_. You know, the one where members of the school choir performed several popular songs. There was also big romantic drama and Jane Lynch made some really cutting remarks. ---

I liked the episode of\*\*\* 'Allo, 'Allo\*\*\* where Michelle said “Listen carefully: I am only going to say this once,” and Rene called his wife a “stupid woman.” ---

I liked the episode of _Happy Days_ when Fonzie stuck his thumbs in the air and said, “AYYYYYYYY!” Then he told Ralph to sit on it. Then there was that time on _Quantum Leap_ when Sam was in danger, but Al could only stand by and watch helplessly because he wasn’t actually physically present where Sam was. ETA: Also that time on the _Odd Couple_ when Felix kept saying “Oscar, Oscar, Oscar” in a disappointed tone of voice. ---

I just LOVED the episode of Faulty Towers where Basil got pissed at Sybil, and then took it out on Manuel. ---

The only episode of_Gilligan’s Island_ I remember ended with them not getting off the island. Anyone else see that one? I also recall an episode of _Mission: Impossible_ where the IMF busted some dude while blowing his mind and the black guy (Greg Morris) was stuck in some shitty location hacking an electrical system. And then there was that episode of _Ironside_ that had a title sequence where he was shot, fell to the ground and belatedly flapped his arm. That was a really good one. My favorite episode of _Dragnet_ was based on a real case and had Jack Webb delivering a righteous speech to some ordinary criminal who was sent to jail at the end. I think all the real names were changed. And I will never forget the episode of _Scooby Doo_ where the gang was investigating a haunted house that turned out to be a ruse run by a crooked real estate developer. That one really stood out from the others. ---

> [@Dropo](#): > > The only episode of_Gilligan’s Island_ I remember ended with them not getting off the island. Anyone else see that one? Yeah, the one where they thought for sure they’d get off the island but it was ruined by an innocent-but-stupid mistake Gilligan made. ---

I loved that Sienfeld episode where someone told an expedient lie and they had to follow through with the consequences of that lie. ---

Speaking of title sequences…the episode of Six Feet Under where somebody died in the beginning was fantastic! ---

I liked the episode of _Emergency!_ where Dr. Brackett defibrillated someone. I liked the episode of _Married…with Children_ where Al Bundy made fun of a fat lady. I liked the episode of _The Americans_ where Phillip wore his dumb-looking Clark Westerfeld wig. ---

Remember the time Eddie said flattering things to Mrs Cleaver? The one when the woman from the French Resistance said " Listen very carefully; I shall say this only once."? Wasn’t there one where a woman couldn’t pronounce “bucket” properly. ---
