    Its probably a common answer, but “Measure of a Man” from Star Trek: The Next Generation. It makes me hope for a future like that, where people can settle their problems by talking it out and debating, and even change their minds. Whenever I think about what Star Trek is really about, I think about Measure of a Man. Its such a shame Paramount’s Picard show disrespected it so badly.

    Someone has to mention Firefly and “Our Mrs. Reynolds.” It features such incredible lines as

    “If you take sexual advantage of her, you’re going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.”

    “I see that my days off not taking you seriously have come to a middle.”

    Not to mention the fantastic Christina Hendricks as Saffron.

    Stargate SG-1 when O’Neill and Teal’c are stuck in a groundhogs day loop. Seriously fun episode.

    Also throwing a shout out to Stargate Atlantis, the episode where McKay is stranded at the bottom of an ocean in a puddle jumper and starts hallucinating. Some of the best acting I’ve seen in a while in that one.

    The Expanse was consistently amazing. Some of the episodes were so good they left me speechless.
