Re: Straight To The Point - Whats Your Top 7 Episodes EVER?

Want to re-watch the entire series again but here I go:

1. Halloween Candy: Very atmospheric and freaky episode, very eerie ending to top it all off, what can I say, this one scared me as a kid!

2. The Devil's Advocate: Jerry Stiller's performance is fantastic and I absolutely love the ending to this one, another very eerie episode.

3. The Odds: A more dramatic episode but it works so well, it's quite engaging and Aiello and Noonan are great and it's surprisingly effective.

4. Levitation: The ending makes this one, the episode just pretty much builds to it. Very disturbing ending and pretty shocking as well.

5. Seasons of Belief: Another episode that packs a hell of an ending, interesting story that builds it's atmosphere until the finale.

6. The Geezenstacks: Another one that scared me as a kid, the ending once again delivers a pretty disturbing punch.

7. Bigalow's Last Smoke: Darkly funny and extremely entertaining and interesting.

Honorable Mentions: Trick or Treat (Pilot), The Last Car, A Choice of Dreams, It All Comes Out in the Wash, and Heretic.

Re: Straight To The Point - Whats Your Top 7 Episodes EVER?

Cant belive The Devil's Advocate is not higher in the lists!

Do understand the love for 'The last car' though. Wonderful episode.

All My Faves

Where's your list Koop?

It's been a year since I made my last list, and I've had a chance to watch ALL 90 episodes again since then, so I wanna re-do my list. There are some really-good episodes that I left out, and there are some that I don't like quite as much as I used to. I also got a lot of my quotes wrong, and I have replaced some quotes with better ones.

But since that list was done on IMDb, I can't edit or delete it, so I guess I'll just have to do a whole new post on this thread.

There are now 31 episodes that I really like, so I'm expanding my list to include all 31.

Bang, here we go [Take 2]…
