I was recently rewatching the IT Crowd, which is one of my favourite shows and after finishing Season 2 Episode 1, “The Work Outing” for the hundredth of time I realized this is probably my favourite sitcom episode of all time. I just can’t get bored of the jokes and the delivery. The writing is gold, and the story escalates from funny to absolutely insane hilarious. Makes me laugh every time. Half the dialogue I quote to this day.
There are many good episodes I love, and could put here as close seconds: probably most of the Futurama series, a dozen of episodes of The Office or some classics from the Friends, I could think of.
So I would like to hear what episodes of any TV show is your favourites and why? Doesn’t needs to be necessarily comedy, anything from television is fair game.
Think of it as a “what single item would you bring to a desert island with you” question, just with an episode of a TV show :)
They wouldn’t work by themselves (for the desert island thing) but there are two season finales I love. Dark season 2 and Mr Robot season 3. Two great seasons with tension being built up and these gave just the perfect ending.
Since you like both Dark and Mr Robot, may I recommend you the Movie ‘Who Am I’?
Without giving away too much, it’s basically Mr Robot made by Baran bo Odar, the creator of Dark, combining aspects of both
But full disclosure, it’s only subbed and finding copies outside of Germany is a bit though
Huh I actually watched that without knowing it’s from the same guy. I just thought Germans make good movies/shows. Now that you say it it does feel similar to both shows.
Dark is massively underrated, we were obsessed with it witth my wife. It was a separate evening before each new season to binge recaps on youtube to have a fresh knowledge of every character in every timeline.
Mr Robit is definetly in my top 10. I loved the “heist” episode, where they didnt say anything the whole time. It was just another level of television. Also the season finales are great.
I actually made a graph for the characters in dark while watching the first two seasons. Definitely my favorite show.
