"memories of mara" and "no place like springfield" are my top episodes. I just like the whole shipwreck/mara relationship.
Plus in the springfield episode, this is the only episode where they borrow a concept from the comic and that was the name of the city. Springfield.

Yet another in agreement that "World's Without End", and "There's No Place Like Springfield" really stuck in my head as a kid.
I also liked "Haul Down The Heavens". It brought up the issue of Global Warming and it's a rare time we get to see night time snow scenes which I dig. Really dynamic episode with the Baroness as Dr. Entwhistle, the subplot of Snowjob getting rescued by some Inuits/Eskimos?, and Firefly's sabotage of the Skystrikers w/acid. I always liked "The Spell of the Siren" because it shows women taking over. And the animation and the sexual tension between The Baroness, Xamot and Lady Jaye is awesome. "The Pit of Vipers" was cool because it showcases how Shipwreck's spirit of marching to the beat of his own drummer, allows him to discover that Watchdog belongs to Cobra. The colors in the animation are also off the hook. The main plot of "Cobra Stops The World" - oil facility sabotage, is probably the most realistic episode of the series and the subplot of the Yanamamo adds sophistication. "Red Rockets Glare", "Cobra's Candidate" and "Money To Burn" are all excellent episode's for showcasing the way that the Crimson Twins act as Cobra's respectable business, and civic facade that provides a so-called legit source of funding. Can't forget "Excalibur" for it's awesome combination of medieval Scottish folklore and ninja combat in the rain. You gotta love the irony of "Flint's Vacation" - a cartoon episode about people in a small town being brainwashed/hypnotized by watching television! "Cold Slither" shows us the shady people Firefly knows of, and how Destro's genius can create a program that writes hit pop songs. "The Viper is Coming" is great just to see the Joes party at Barbecue's. "Cobra Claws are Coming to Down" combines a cool weapon [Molecular Reducer/Enlarger] with a classic plot device [The Trojan Horse], w/the subplot of Mutt's holiday blues, and Cobra's attack on Keystone City in Joe Gear, all into a heart warming holiday episode complete with snow! |

My personal fav's are Red Rockets Glare (I love seeing Roadblock and Recondo sporting some sweet Hawaiian shirts) and Countdown for Zartan.

My favorites:
"Million Dollar Medic" "The Funhouse" I just love the battle scenes in those two! You have beach landings, and great Air cover, there just cool. |
