- Gifts for Madge and Guy. I love the humor in Airplane ("Don't Call Me Shirley"), and this came pretty close.

- Top This. I'm a radio guy, so I love the callers calling about other stations, playing lousy music, and wanting to take the station hostage for 90+ hours.

- Poor Loser. Eugene having a meltdown is usually funny. Eugene melting down because he can't beat Bernard in chess is even funnier.

- A Class Act. Edwin Blagaard shed his "Good Twin" stereotype with this episode, and I was happy to see that they just didn't make him his brother's opposite. The episode was quite biting in its humor ("I'm a Tree!"), which didn't hurt either.

- I Slap Floor. I pity the young listener who to stumbles upon this in the repeats, because it's going to make no sense. Connie and Eugene making out, Whit going nuts, Edwin and Margret getting married and watching I Love Lucy....it's the one episode that demands you know everything about the show.

- Hidden in My Heart, just for the "expendable crewmen" line.

At least that's a start :)

I Slap Floor was a good one! I LOVE it. Whit's advice is similar to that of a high teenager's, Eugene and Connie realize they are madly in love and make out (which the writers nowadays seem to want them to do in real life), Edwin becomes the local "exquisite" court jester and marries Margaret Faye, who suddenly makes Bella Swan look like the paragon of the feminist movement, Bart Rathbone actually becomes a halfway-decent person and buys the Timothy Center from Tom Riley (who decides he has a death wish and would like to become a rodeo cowboy), and Richard Maxwell comes back as Regis in disguise.
