A Month of TV Commentary: A Meme in 30 Parts: Day 12

Day 12 - An episode you’ve watched more than 5 times

There's a lot of episodes I've watched more than five times. I've always been one to revisit books, movies, and TV series that I really enjoy.

But the single episode of a TV series I've likely watched more times than any other, hands down, is the episode "Inferno' from Coupling. This is largely because kitanzi and I tend to try and hook anyone who will sit still long enough on the show, and partly because it contains one of the greatest comedy rants of all time:

In all seriousness, if you've never seen Coupling, you should give it a try. Smart, snappy, and funny: everything you could ever ask from a situation comedy.



Day 01 - A show that should have never been cancelled
Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching
Day 03 - Your favorite new show (aired this t.v season)
Day 04 - Your favorite show ever
Day 05 - A show you hate
Day 06 - Favourite episode of your favourite t.v show
Day 07 - Least favorite episode of your favorite t.v show
Day 08 - A show everyone should watch
day 09 - Best scene ever
Day 10 - A show you thought you wouldn't like but ended up loving

That is one of the best episodes of Coupling ever. Closely followed by the fabric shopping one.

That is a good rant. I'll add Coupling to my list.

"More than 5 times" is a tough one. No doubt that applies to many episodes of the original Star Trek, but it's hard to name specifics because it's been years since I last watched them. There may be episodes of Law and Order I've seen that many times, because the reruns on TNT are great brain candy when I don't want to concentrate too hard.

I think I'll go with one I stop to watch whenever I notice it, because it's such a sentimental favorite - the "prom" episode of Buffy.
