This new Facebook thing that you can do where you choose your Top 5 in various categories got me thinking of my Top 5 Episodes of Television Ever. Unfortunately, you can’t really do that on Facebook, but, of course, I had to figure it out anyway. And now that I know, I want it in print. I had to separate between Drama and Comedy/Dramedy just because.
Top 5 Drama Series Episodes:
- Angel: “Not Fade Away” – Not only the greatest series finale of any TV show, ever, but my favorite episode of any TV show, ever.
- Lost: “The Constant”
- Friday Night Lights: “Mud Bowl”
- Mad Men: “The Wheel”
- Doctor Who: “Blink”
Honorable Mention (in no particular order): Alias: “Phase One”; The Wire: “Final Grades”; Buffy the Vampire Slayer: “Doppelgangland”; Veronica Mars: “Leave it to Beaver”; Firefly: “Out of Gas”; Deadwood: “A Constant Throb”; Battlestar Galactica: “Kobol's Last Gleaming: Part 2”
Top 5 Comedy/Dramedy Series Episodes:
- The Office (BBC): “Christmas Special”
- Pushing Daisies: “Comfort Food”
- Arrested Development: “Meat the Veals”
- Freaks & Geeks: “Disco & Dragons”
- 30 Rock: “Subway Hero”
Honorable Mention (in no particular order): Wonderfalls: “Karma Chameleon”; Chuck: “Chuck Versus the Cougars”; Sports Night: “What Kind of Day has it Been?”
