New Girl: The 23rd (2011)
Heartwarming Episode with Flaws
A lovely 1st Christmas episode for New Girl and would have probably been my favorite episode so far if they wouldn't have done Paul's character so dirty. It felt extremely out of character for Paul to say he couldn't slow down for Jess, when all of the previous build up had been them getting along fantastically with Paul being very caring and what looked like a perfect match. This episode just felt like poor planning by the writers; they shouldn't have had Jess' first partner back be such an excellent match for her, but maybe that's the point. Besides that whole plot line, a very enjoyable episode.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: The Gang Cracks the Liberty Bell (2008)
Wait wait wait. Check his pulse
Some of my favorite moments come from this unorthodox episode. I see why some may not like this one as it might seem out of place juxtaposed to other episodes, but it worked for me. All of the half Philly-half British accents and the final 4-5 minutes made this one of my favorite episodes thus far.
Castle: PhDead (2015)
A fun episode
Although I really dislike the Castle/Beckett separation storyline, I really enjoyed the rest of this episode. I thought the Espo and Ryan imitating college kids was funny and thought all of the scenes with Alexis and Castle were great. I like how they seem to be utilizing Alexis much more this season. The prison experiment created a fun premise to base an episode around too and the school atmosphere brought me back to Snells Like Teen Spirit from season 1. All in all, 8.5/10 for me.
Castle: 3XK (2010)
A new type of Castle episode
3XK has everything you want or would expect from a Castle episode, witty humor, a Castle family subplot that ties in with the precinct's current homicide, and hints of romance between Castle and Beckett. But there are a few things that really set this episode apart from the others.
1. We see the murderer's in the opening scenes. We have rarely seen this from Castle but it immediately shifts the show from a whodunnit into a manhunt, which are both exciting imo but a little spice up is always nice. 2. The crew is tracking a serial killer, which we have only seen a few times since Castle has been on the case. (!)Don't read #3 if haven't watched the episode yet. 3. The first Castle episode where the murderer is known and communicated with, but not apprehended by the end of the episode, leading us to believe he could very well be seen again.
All in all, easily one of my favorite Castle episodes so far and can't wait for the (possible) return of the three times killer.

Just because you don't especially like something doesn't mean you have to drag it through the mud multiple times to get your point across. I understand you're probably reviewing all these episodes with the positivity of Eeyore just to get a raise out of people like myself, but I can't help but notice that you have an extremely difficult time recognizing the positives of any season six episode so for my turn, I pity you, because I feel that you might be in a pretty rough situation. Don't get me wrong, you're entirely entitled to your own opinion, but if you're gonna call yourself a fan, do so respectfully and try to see the good and the poor. Don't just say "Annie bad. Abed bad. Paget Brewster bad." It's unwarranted hate on an amazing show that lost three main characters and is streaming on Yahoo for crying out loud. If you ask me, Harmon and crew did an extraordinary job on S6 for the cards that they were dealt. Just something to keep in mind for your future. I wish you the best. Also, this episode is one of my S6 favorites :)
Community: The First Chang Dynasty (2012)
One of my S3 Favorites
I love the Oceans movies and all of the spy-craft they played off of in this episode. It almost gives me kind of a Knives Out vibe which is another great movie. Chang really steals the show for me in this one and is imo one of, if not, his best episodes. His keytar solo had me doubling over. Troy's whole AC school story line finally comes to a tipping point, and in the best fashion. Again, one of my favorite episodes from season 3. Overall: 9.6/10

The Greendale 7
The beginning of the Chang Dynasty. A very good setup episode with some great laughs. The Dean continues to fail miserably at doing his best but you have to respect him for being true to himself. Love the tie-in with Remedial Chaos Theory and how they come to the conclusion that with each other there is always something to be thankful and happy for. Great, not quite fantastic, setup episode. Overall 8.6/10
Community: Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps (2011)
Such a fun episode
Sneakily one of my favorite episodes of the show. All of the stories are so outlandishly in character that they are hilarious, even if they do get a bit weird at times. And the test results at the end is just the cherry on top to a great episode
Cobra Kai: Different but Same (2018)
More teen stereotypes
Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy this series, but this was probably one of my least favorite episodes so far. I loved the Johnny and Daniel scenes and how they were finally able to somewhat connect and reminisce and how the writers were able to add some humor in there too. But all of the scenes with the kids and the whole teenage drama storyline just felt super over the top and stereotypical to me and was a huge turn-off imo. Still a good episode and a great show.
The 100: A Sort of Homecoming (2020)
Understand the hate but it's gone too far
I get that people are upset with the way things are ending with the 100. Bellamy's death was completely underwhelming and unnecessary but what's done is done and there is no point dwelling on it and downvoting this episode bc of it. There are two episodes left and this just felt like a filler episode to me which kinda gets on my nerves. I liked seeing them on Earth again but it wore out its welcome pretty quickly, especially the fact that most of the characters just about brush off Bellamy's death which really irks me. Most of the episode really didn't catch my attention as well as it should've and I hate to see Gabriel go, but at least he got a better death scene than Bellamy. All in all, a pretty boring episode at a time where they should be picking up. Doesn't deserve the hate (all the 1s) it's getting but definitely one of the weakest episodes of the season, if not series. But even at its worst the 100 is still a 6/10 for me.
