Best SINGLE Episode of Any Cartoon!

Growing Up Creepie- Creepie Crawling, Fashion Victim
I go with Fashion Victim, especially, because it shows me what an awesome cartoon character girl Creepie truly is. This episode alome showed me that rue beauty comes from being yourself...

Yin Yang Yo!- It was the one where Saranoia dressed as a maid...
It was also her last episode ever!! She just had no buisness being a villain- just another feminist annoyance no one needed to put up with...Thank God! Seeing her go and get replaced with powerhouses like Smoke and Mirrors really made me smile and say, " I LOVE THIS SHOW!"

Avatar- Day of Black Sun, Part II
Quite possibly the best battle in the whole series. That coupled with the fact that I was cheering like mad when Zuko turned good and went against his Nazi Father and sister once and for all... Let's just say this one really made me happy...

Random Cartoons!- Sparkles and Gloom
This needs to be turned into a cartoon show- HANDS DOWN!!! Nuff' Said!!
 
I saw her as yet another slap at feminism itself. Courtesy of the guy behind the show who, judging by his work on YYY and FOP, had personal issues about the subject. Heavy-handed and obnoxious issues. I'm glad she's gone too, and that, apparently, the show will follow her soon. JMHO.
 
  • I almost went for "A Firefighting We Will Go" as my favorite KOTH episode(it's definately my next favorite),because it is a great episode for Hank and his friends (I like how each has his own version of what burned down the firehouse,especially Boomhauer's,where he's the only one who speaks normally)...I just enjoyed "Hilloween" more,especially when Hank encourages Bobby to vandalize Junie Harper's house("I'm reminded of another Bible quote...Do Unto Others...",and then acts like he had nothing to do with it/scolds Bobby when Peggy's around,and when Junie Harper later quotes the Bible to make a point about Bobby (Hank: Get out of my house!!!!!....Ummm...Exodus)...

    "Super Fun Time" was decent(Butters' refusal to let go of Cartman's hands under any circumstances made the episode for me),but my next fave South Park is "The Death of Eric Cartman"....I thought it was hilarious that Cartman thought he was dead because all the kids (except Butters) were ignoring him,and that he doesn't have a clue about the truth until the end of the episode (and trying to make up for all the horrible things he's done by giving fruit baskets?....Priceless...:D )...

    "Roswell that Ends Well" is one of the better Futurama episodes,as is "Jurassic Bark",though I liked some of the others more ("The Sting" I already mentioned,"The Why of Fry" for its touching Fry/Leela ending,and "The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings" for Fry's opera,as well as another touching Fry/Leela ending)....In "Roswell",though it makes little sense,I liked how Fry was able to make a major change to the timestream without affecting the future (...and one of my favorite Professor Farnsworth quotes... "OOhh...a lesson in NOT changing history from Mr. "I'm- my- own- grandpa"!!!...Screw history!!!!") ....Jurassic Bark is awesome,because it shows a touching side to the series,something you rarely see in animated comedy series aimed at older viewers...
 
Actually- to reply to your generous comment, I believe it already has... I mean with the screw-up with Eradicus' death and him still being alive in all- when he should be dead! Either way, this show had a good run, better than FOP has doing for itself, since that needs to end, to go off subject...
 
Butchering is a bit of a harsh word, considering it was a lot more creative and original than the one from the comics (mainly the whole whatever-you-paint-comes-alive gimmick during the fight, in the comic the whole situation was fairly uninspired). That said, I definately would say it was one of the weaker episodes (Divide and Conquer being hands down the absolute worst episode of the entire series), but condemning the episode for the sole reason that the artist looked different from how he did in the comics? :sweat: I'd say story and writing are a lot more important than some guy's hair. If I would pick a "best episode ever" for the show, I'd probably pick M is for Mercy, or Q is for Quarry. But it's a bit hard for me since all the episodes basically flow right into one another so looking at only a single one is kind of hard when they're all basically part of one huge episode.

Anyway, Beast War's Code of Hero is probably my favorite single episode out of any show. The final episode in Dinobot's character development, and showcasing just how far his character has come since the first episode and what it means to, well, truly be a hero
 
Someone else saw this short. Wow.

I liked the concept behind "Sparkles & Gloom" (but I guess I would, since my brother and I have a show with a similar premise in development right now), but I thought the execution left something to be desired. They shouldn't have done a "characters switch powers" plot in the introductory short; that story line you save for later on.
 
I [haven't seen much], but the few I've seen include that one and I agree. Almost any show where someone changes their look is usually fun. Makeover from Weekenders is one of my, so many favorites. My favorite part in that one is when Tino is talking to his Mother. "We should stop her" and she basically says "No, keep an eye on her eating habits but you don't get to choose who she wants to be"

Yeah, this REALLY needs to become an official cartoon show, just as long as they don't switch powers in the beginning- You're right, that should be saved as a season finale kind of thing, if only to better develop the main characters...

As for your idea, if it's anything like this, I will watch this show- Nuff' Said.
 
samurai jack: XXXII the traveling creatures that was just really good. i loved that show so much though best fight XL jack V the ninja, fun: jack versus the blind archers, jack and the spartans

ed, edd n eddy: the monkey boys episode still the best there is it is so funny and just awesome.

dexter's laboratory: great show overall hard to pick from the overall good feeling i have for it but if i have to the mandark origon episode ranks pretty high

justice league: 2 parter, the ww2 episodes were all time greats still can't beat them epic and just awesome

Batman TAS: heart of ice. best episode and one of my favorite villains becuase he is not crazy just extraordinarily vengeful and displays a brutal side none of the other villains have unless the episode really calls for it MR freeze is just natutally... well cold. the riddler is great too, the joker is good but i ahve always had a hard time understanding him. mark hamill's laugh is the best bar none but still with the joker you have to try to hard.

futurama: roswell that ends well. it is the most hysterical episode they have ever written

the simpsons: you only move twice great. it has some great funny jokes season 6 is the best if i could i would move the episode where marge is a cop and replace it with this one then it is perfect. anyways i love that episode funny thing there is a golf course/condo area that i go to called cypress creek

family guy: i think it was the first episode where stewey combats the man in white great episode

so yeah i love these episodes they are bar none to anything they can be compared to from the rest of their series
 
forgot a few shows;

pinky and the brain: the episode where brain talks with beavers awesome

invader zim: hobo 13

avatar the last airbender: the finale was epic one of the best i have ever seen, after that it is hard to pick out one the cave of 2 lovers was pretty good, i really liked the blind bandit, sokka's master was pretty cool. but i loved the finale that was awesome do not know if they could have made that better. maybe if they left out that bit about zuko's mother but it is cool they left room to pick things back up later but i would have actually rathered they let things stay closed. still pretty cool and epic.
 
:^: No need to double post; that's what the edit button is for.



You mean "The Savage Time", and that was a 3-parter, not 2. It was the 1st season finale, to be exact.

"Chitty Chitty Death Bang", and that was episode 3, IIRC. "Death Has a Shadow" was the first episode.
 
It would be impossible for me to pick a favorite episode from just ONE show, but the Boogieman episodes from The Real Ghostbusters come to mind, as well as the initial arc from the TMNT classic, also tons of single episodes from X-Men TAS stand out to me, but I can't name just one.
 
Er, sole reason? That was more of a nitpick really; but the artist in question is also the source of a complaint involving story and writing. In the comics, he was a guy who was able to flee to the middle ages of Earth from Phobos' rule and able to live a good life there until Cedric tracks him down and seals him into his own painting, where he can't paint, not even a portrait of the woman he had loved on Earth. When the story is through, he can paint again and the painting world changes to be more like the real one. Knowing that this is his world now, he stays there forever, having a touching goodbye moment with the girls.

In the show? He was a guy trapped in his painting by Phobos and wants out. That's it. If a character's going to be a one-shot, they should at least be an interesting one. The artist in the comics was; the one in the show was not. That alone killed the episode for me, but there were other reasons that I don't want to go in-depth about since they're more or less tied to my issues with season one as a whole (Oh Greg Weisman, why the hell weren't you there from the start?)



M is for Mercy was very good, but I'd pick S is for Self or V is for Victory myself. S is for Self is the only real time Matt's inner conflict was explored, but it was done so well in that one episode that it completely makes up for it's presence beforehand (plus...Jason Marsden can sing. :D ) And V is for Victory...well, it actually made Prince Phobos semi-likeable, and that's no small feat.
