Rename episodes of your TV favorites to be more appropriate, revealing, amusing, or ironic. Mine:

Lost “Pilot” -\> “Pilot…gets eaten by smoke monster”  
Firefly “Jaynestown” -\> “His name is mud”

There’s an early episode of Buffy, which I can’t remember the real name of at the moment, that I always refer to as “Malcolm In The Internet” because well, there’s a demon in the internet in the episode that pretends to be a guy named Malcolm when conversing with Willow.
