What is your all-time favorite episode of Murphy Brown and why?

11-20-2000, 06:16 PM

The one where Murphy goes on "Mulberry Lane", and things get ugly enough that the puppets end up singing "Sometimes People Are Mean." If anyone can find me the lyrics to this tune, please let me know! Thank U!

UN NO PART ONE AND TWO.
WHen Murphy finds out she is pregant a classic. I find the writting so funny...and it does was the show does best..comedy and drama together
also THE GOLD RUSH and all the jerry gold eps.
And On ANOTHER PLANE..when murphy and Frank think they are going to die and their lives flash in front of their eyes

My favorite is the episode where Murphy takes Myles clothes shopping and goes into the dressing room while Myles is changing and accidently sees Myles' penis. When they are having a story meeting back at the office and Murphy blurts out what happened the double entendre jokes that every tells are hilarious. I.E. Do you want to go to the movies later? It's a double feature. The Fly is opening and then Free Willy is coming out.

I haven't seen all eps but here's a *little* list:
Brown Like Me
On Another Plane
The Novel
The Gold Rush
Hoarse Play
Oh Uh 1,2 &3
Come out, Come out Wherever you Are
Birth 101

All the ones with Scott Bakula because I love him and he's so hotttttttt
The Tip of The Silverberg
Opus One
Wee Small Hours
I guess that's all I can think for now.

not sure of the title, but the one where Jim's dog dies and they have to have the intervention and everything

also the one where they get locked out on the balcony of FYI on Christmas Eve and the one (any of the ones) where Murphy goes to the White House and terrorizes the President

The one where Murphy stops at the grocery store to get Avery's babyfood and finds out it was discontinued-Miles has to buy pads for his girlfriend and Jim deals with a dimwit in the deli! Great episode!

I remember that one!

Send in the Clowns - where Murphy answers questions from the Senate was good, also The More things Change which introduced Scott Bakula and Political Correctness where they did that Town Hall Meeting and ended up offending all the minority groups are my favourites

Kristen · 07-01-2005, 11:41 PM

I'm bumping this thread up b/c this place is dead! LOL Some of my favorite episodes are (In no particular order!):

"Respect"
"Queen of Soul"
"Summer of '77"
"Birth 101" - Also Candice Bergen's favorite!
The entire "Uh-Oh" trilogy
Any of the Avery Brown episodes ("Mama Said," "Brown Like Me," etc.)
"It's Just Like Riding a Bike" (Really, anything involving Peter Hunt is good!)
"Midnight Plane to Paris"
"He-ho, he-ho, It's Off to Lamaze We Go"
"One"
"Sox and the Single Girl"
"Bye Bye, Bernecky"
"Operation: Murphy Brown"
"Trouble in Sherwood-Forrest"

Joker85 · 07-02-2005, 12:02 AM

oh God...there are so many. And so many I probably don't even remember. here's a list of ones that I REALLY enjoy:

Respect (one of the best TV pilots ever!)
Off the Job Experience
Funnies Girl
The Morning Show
Bob and Murphy and Ted and Avery
Uh Oh parts 1, 2, and 3
Birth 101
You Saw Potatoe, I Say Potato parts 1 and 2 (the broadcast she does at the end is just awesome!

)
Bye Bye Bernecky
Never Can Say Goodbye (good farewell to the show)

I'm sure there are others I've just forgotten about. We need more seasons on DVD!

pogo520 · 07-03-2005, 02:05 PM

My favorite episode of Murphy Brown was the one called "Its just like Riding a Bike". Its the first time Murphy and Peter go to bed together and Murphy tries to delay the inevitable. She ends up wrapped in a blanket. Murphy finds out that Peter is 7 years older than she is and I love Murphys line "Thats also the amount of time it takes for your body to go through a complete set of skin cells. Do you know what that means? Im a set of skin cells ahead of you!" Another one of my favorite lines from this show is when Peter says"I was going to be great tonight. I would have been so great that you would have left your body 3 times and would have been begging to get back in once you saw how much fun it was having!" I thought this was the funniest Murphy Brown episode ever.

pogo520 · 07-09-2005, 02:56 PM

I also really liked all of the episodes with Peter Hunt and Murphy. I thought they were great together. I was sad when they broke up.

Bullet · 11-04-2005, 01:24 PM

One episode that I find hilarious is the one after the 1994 elections when Stuart Best was elected to Congress, and invites Murphy and the gang to his party to make fun of them. Then Murphy invites him to a discussion on air. Before that time his backers have given him a position list. This episode is one I've watched a lot. It was really hilarious when the original full gang was there.

Also another one that I love is when Corky and Will are being sued for plagiarism, and Corky has to read her diary in court.

Bugs · 07-05-2006, 10:17 AM

Okay, only able to refer to Season 1:

Off-the-job experience
Kyle
The Unshrinkable Murphy Brown
The intro (right word?) of The morning show, where Murphy is sleeping in bed. For some reason I always find that hilarious.
