What is your favorite episode of NewsRadio and why? (I know this question has been asked a bizillion times, but I couldn't think of a better one, and we need to get some activity going in here!)

Mine is either the one where Dave turns evil because he wants his job back ("Get your own damn soda"...I LOVE that), or the one wear Lisa's Bawstin accent comes back..."Up yous, ya looza"

Oh man, I have so many favorites! I'll try to narrow it down to my top five...

1. The one with Jon Lovitz as the suicidal man that Bill helps.

2. The space station episode.

3. The episode where Jimmy loses Bill in a poker game.

4. The complaint box episode.

5. The hot air baloon episode.

Security Door- Gotta love Dave when he gets all paranoid. That staff lecture he gives with the pictures illustrating every question the staff has is great. "In the event a wizard casts a spell on us..."

Padded Suit- More paranoid Dave plus Jimmy's Million Mama March. "In my mind, I've fired each of them a hundred times."

Our 50th Episode- Bill and Jon Lovitz in a mental ward. "Now who amongst us hasn't had the urge to makeout with a light switch."

I don't have just one favorite so I'll list my favorite from each season.

Season 1
"Smoking"
Dave agrees to quit coffee if Bill will give up smoking. Meanwhile, Lisa is convinced Joe saw Dave and her at the movies.

Season 2
"In Through the Out Door"
Dave has to write and give a speech about Bill, while Matthew starts gambling with Joe.

Season 3
"Complaint Box"
While Mr. James is on a fishing trip and communicating to the staff with a big box, Dave puts up a complaint box and has to deal with all of the stupid complaints.

Season 4
"Chock"
Dave's college friends visit him on his 32nd birthday, wanting to get their accapella group back together, while Lisa gets upset with the lazy Matthew.

"Security Door"
A paranoid Dave has a security door installed, while Bill gets Lisa to be his agent for a blue jeans commercial.

Season 5
"Flowers for Matthew"
Joe invents a smart drink and gives it to Matthew, turning him into Smatthew, Dave's new best friend. Meanwhile, Max gets Lisa involved with his crush on Beth.

I love the Smatthew episode, where Joe gives Matthew a "Smart" drink. Can't get enough of that one.
