Top 3 Episodes

[THRILL]

It's that time again to think back to your favorite episodes. There are so many for me because all were the result of quality writing and acting. I think I can safely say, however, that I have a top 3. Here they are in order.

#1 - Goodbye (Episode 43): A truly classic episode. Much of what makes this series great is the history behind the characters that us as viewers learn. This particular episode illustrates that beautifully. The last scene where Kevin says, "You don't have to grade it - It's an A" gives me chills, as well as when he stops at the door as he's leaving the classroom to look back and say "Good job Mr. Collins."

#2 - The Unnatural (Episode 44): Such a nice, smooth episode all the way through. What's more American than baseball? I guess this one reminds me of my own childhood so much. Favorite quote - "I realized my dad wasn't pulling strings for me...he was just pulling for me."

#3 - Moving (Episode 46): The scene at the end in the moving truck makes this episode. I think that if someone were to ask for a single episode that is typical of the entire series, this would be the one to show them.

Honorable Mention - The Lake (#70), Denial (#58), The Glee Club (#39)

Thats one of my favourite episodes too,and it also Fred Savage's favourite.

My other favourites were:
Definetly The Pilot (#1) because it was such a great introduction to the show,Winnie's brother died so it was emotional,Kevin started junior high,and had his first kiss with Winnie.

Nemesis (#17): It was so funny because the insults that Kevin used about his classmates were not even so harsh,i mean,its the kind of stuff today's kids would just laugh off,but its funny how the characters found it so offensive.

The Lake (#70) : Lots of people seem to like this episode,i thought it showed Kevin's rebellious side.

Nose (#109): I thought this episode was great! I love the part where Winnie and Kevin were in the car,and Winnie said,"Would you still go out with me if i had a big nose?" and Kevin said,"Of course I would",and then a few seconds later,he smiles,and says,"How Big?"

And i love the final two episodes #114 Summer,and #115 Independence Day.The final dialogue in the final episode made me cry-the whole,gorwing up happens in a heartbeat,one day you're in diapers,the next you're gone but the memories of childhood stay with you for the long haul.I still get goosebumps from it.I saw this documentary on the Wonder Years and Daniel Stern (the narrator) said he was all teary when he had to say that,it was so emotional.

my top 3: #1: "the Accident"
Even though they aren't together, their love will never die.
#2:"The Lake" It shows the transition for kevin, from being a boy, to a young adult. #3: "Goodbye" This episode evokes the life lessons that someone has put upon Kevin.
