Very nice. I can't admit to having seen many; I only watch a few of the shows you've listed.

But definite props for "Bastogne," "Pine Barrens," "Development Arrested," and the immortal "Goodbye, Farewell and Amen."

My personal favorite episode of television is Buffy the Vampire Slayer's "The Body," the most believable, heart-rending hour of drama I have ever seen.

I really should pick up that complete Buffy boxset I've wanted to buy from amazon for so long...

Thanks for the shoutout, Mal! Try and checkout some of the episodes listed. You won't be dissapointed. :) I'd love to see your top-fifty, btw.
