Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Body (2001)
Buffy at its finest
This is by far the best acted and written episode of Buffy. The show goes from this kinda light, fun, sometimes heartbreaking show about a gang of kids fighting the supernatural and then BAM! Mom dies. And not from some supernatural force, but she just has an aneurism after having brain surgery from just getting cancer like a normal person. That's what really messes you up. That she didn't die from what everyone else in the show dies from, she dies "normally" and no one can fix it. You can't blame anyone. It just overwhelming how unfair life can be. And it really hits hard. And it allows for just amazing character development and the actors deliver flawless performance that cover a full spectrum of how grief can effect people differently. And the cinematography and sound editing is fantastic. It really tells the story and you feel the grief they are all feeling.
Just a 10/10 episode and story. No notes. Bravo.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (2005)
Absolutely hilarious, if you get it
First off, through FXX, all things are possible, so jot that down real quick - they have believed in and supported this show from its meager $200 pilot, and the world is better for it. This show is 100% fresh entertainment. Watching it from the beginning is a necessity, as you cannot fully appreciate the characters unless you watch how they steadily become Caricatures of themselves over many failed plots and ploys over the 14 seasons. Brilliantly written satire of a sitcom, that is both timeless and current. The jokes are clever, the acting impeccable, and the content completely satisfying. This show has never disappointed, and deserves every single episode and season that it is renewed.
However, if you don't get it, it may just come off as crude and tasteless jokes, made by actors who only want to sit in a bar and scream at each other. And you know what? That's okay. If you don't get it, then just know this show wasn't made for you. Please feel free to enjoy your Big Bang Theory and 2 Broke Girls and leave us men and women of culture to our own devices.
Psych: A Nightmare on State Street (2014)
Don't let the reviews fool you
This episode is so much fun, and undeniably Psych. Countless 80's references to a dozen horror films and a stellar guest. Plus - SO MANY GUS SCREAM! Truly wonderful to watch
