Add another vote for Yesterday's Enterprise, truly outstanding episode.

My wife wanted to chip in and say that one of the most non-Buffy memorable TV episodes that she can remember was the Cosby Show episode where all the men became pregnant.

That episode was fantastic! I loved it when one of them (Theo?) gave birth to two 2-liter bottles of soda, and the nurse said "Look, twins!"

A memorable scene (I forget most of the rest of the episode) was the time in Family Guy that Peter was having a day-dream about being on one of those dating shows.
Bachelorette: "If I were ice cream, then how would you eat me?"
Bachelor 1: "I'd lick you up nice and slow..."
Bachelor 2: "I'd gobble you all up, baby!"
Peter: "I'd eat you as fast as I could, before I went flaccid."

That's the best line in that episode, and a fitting end to the series.

I will have to disagree with JohnT. "Hush" was the best Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode ever. It was the best show I've watched in years. "Once More with Feeling" is a very close second, however. Followed shortly thereafter by, "The Body."

The final episode of "Edge of darkness". Radiation poisoning, two plutonium pellets being used as an offensive weapon, and black flowers spontaneously appearing at the poles.

Nothing else I've seen has come close. I was actually holding my breath.

The episode of Some mothers do have em where in the beginning of the show Frank is driving along on his moped carrying a 2x4 (I think). It's 5-10 minutes of gut-wrenching laughter (and the first episode I ever saw).

The Fawlty Towers episode that gets me the hardest was the one where he's having Gourmet Night and his friend is making the food, but Basil has to go get it and his car breaks down. He leaps out (he drives a mini, so seeing his gangling frame leaping out of the car is funny in and of itself), gives the car a stern lecture and a warning to start, and, when the car doesn't start, he yells, "I'm going to give you a damned good thrashing!" He disappears off camera for 10 seconds and then leaps back in with an uprooted sapling, with which he proceeds to pummel his automobile. I don't think I've ever laughed that hard at anything.

Q's performance throughout the episode was great, especially the little speech at the end telling Picard what he should've learned. It help set up a great, upbeat ending.

Most of the ones that sprang to mind when I saw this thread were already taken...

"Cylde Bruckman" and "Jose Chung" from the X-Files, the first "24" finale (just absolutely heart-breaking), "The Contest", the Newhart finale.

I'd also mention "Humbug" from the X-Files, a second season episode where they investigate murders at a freakshow. Hilarious.

But a few more that always haunt me when I think of them, all from Homicide: Life on the Street--

--the interrogation of the araber by Bayliss and Pembelton
--the execution of Luther Mahoney by Detective Kellerman
--the squadroom shootout that resulted from that execution
--the finale, where Bayliss leaves the force, and the next scene finds a suspected murderer dead, with no clues or evidence in sight, leading a detective to say, "Whoever did this knew what they were doing..."

Beautiful ending to TNG.
The final episode of B5 was great too, as was Quantum Leap

The Futurama episode Where no Fan has Gone before was a great tribute to the orginal cast of Star Trek

Most heartbreaking...There was an episode of Futurama where Fry was trying to clone his Dog. He eventually decided That he had no friends back in 2000, and his dog had probaly moved on.

It ends with his dog waiting outside of the Pizza Parlor where he worked, growing older with the neighbor, waiting for Fry. Man, I'm tearing up just thinking of it.

I have several that haven't been mentioned and several that have:

M*A*S*H- The "Stevie" episode. Episode about a medic that forgets who he is, and under hypnosis reveals that his little brother Stevie was killed in a battle and that he had, the medic, had promised his mother he would look after Stevie.

The Jeffersons- The Episode where George does CPR on a hatemonger white man and saves his life.

The hatemonger, after being told that George saved his life, said," You should have let me die." The son of the hatemonger however was changed by George's saving of his fathers life.

WKRP-Turkey Day, 'nuff said.

The Bob Newhart Show- The episode in which he orders moo goo goo goo from a Chinese restaurant.

ACK!
