| 'Arise Serpentor, Arise' is the one I can watch over and over and never tire of. It's mainly because the episodes are organized so well, with the basic Joe format (Going around the world and trying to beat Cobra in finding something) but it moves from a great first episode, to a great body where they chase each other around, then Serpentor's creation, and then the huge finale with the attack on Washington where everybody's everything is seen and a huge brawl ensues.
I don't even like most of the characters but the story lines were the most interesting. Cobra Commander's still living in a cartoon world and sincerely can't understand why nobody appreciates him, the Joes keep overestimating Cobra and for once have little idea what they're up to, Serpentor shows what Cobra Commander would be if he actually did have the will and bravado his peers want him to have (and not in a good way), and that Cobra Commander actually knows more about what he's doing than he looks like.
...and looking back at what I've written I really watch that mini-series way too much.
