People always talk about bad episodes of great shows (Stranger in a Strange Land, Black Market, The Great Divide), but what is your favorite episode from a show you ultimately wound up hating?

Hey guys, I've been a huge fan of the A.V. Club for a while now.

I've been doing some tv reviews for a site for the past two weeks now and I'm just starting to get the hang of getting a review done as soon as possible after the episode airs. I was wondering, is there any sort of ritual you go through when you are getting ready to review something? Do you watch an episode multiple times, take notes, or try and read as much into the background of the show as possible? Has writing reviews become almost a second nature at this point where you can just crank out a good review of say "Monday Mornings" in less than an hour?

Also, are you starting to worry at all that there are less and less options for TV Club Classic? A ton of the best Classics have either been cancelled/put on hiatus or have run their course already.

(Also, would you ever consider having a "second opinion" for the Classics? I will never get over how much I hated the Cowboy Bebop reviews)
