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 :)

  1. Travelers - S02E07 "17 Minutes"

Timeloops, what more can I say. They're fun.

TLDR: Main Cast of Time travelers die, but no worry, we literally have time travel, so the future send another time traveler's conciousness back in time before the team dies, the time traveler take over a skydiver that historically died and averts their host's death, then races to do their primary mission of saving the main cast time traveler team, they only got 17 minutes left. But the mission fails, then they try again, and again. For almost 10 times.

Why: Because I just love watching each iteration progress. Like, imagine if life had do-overs... But its a mission instead.

(I'm horrible at explaining things, but just watch the entirety of Travlers, trust me ๐Ÿ˜‰)

  1. The Magicians - S05E06 "Oops!...I Did It Again"

MORE TIME LOOPS, what more can I say? (I almost forgot about this one, but Travelers reminded me of this)

Earth goes Kaboom, but an ancient spell reverses time for 12 hours, only 2 people, specifically 2 Magicians, remember the previous loop. So they try various spells to fix it.

Why: Its more timeloops, so fun, thats why!

Since you like time loops, there's a Stargate SG-1 episode about time loop as well, S04E06 Window of Opportunity, also one of my favorite episodes.
