Favorite Episode

Just got done with the series. I revist every few years because it's my absolute favorite show!

What's your favorite episode? I think mine is "Self-Esteem" the Buffalo Tom episode. Maybe cause I remember what it used to feel like when new love becomes "official" and it feels so relatable or maybe it's just cause I like that song. Or maybe it's cause Jordan Catalano has so much screen time.

What's your favorite episode?

Would have to say the Halloween and Christmas ones are my least favorite. For a series that seems so "real" they really knew how to take it to the opposite end of the spectrum and made it un believable with the ghosts.

I was just going to say the Christmas episode was my favorite.
The self esteem one is a close second.

I liked "Weekend" when Patty & Graham go away for the weekend with Graham's brother and girlfriend. Patty is accused of being too uptight so she smokes a joint and gets drunk at dinner. Meanwhile, Rayanne accidentally handcuffs herself to Patty and Graham's bed and they all spend the entire weekend trying to get her free.

Rayanne handcuffed to the bed was a great one. I actually really loved the Halloween episode, though.

I, too, revisit this series nearly every year.
I liked the Christmas episode (because, sappy-girl, I liked the overall message) and the Weekend one, with Patty.
I also like the episode where, Reyeann, gets drunk and, sings the Sesame Street theme song.

My favorites are "Strangers in the House" where Sharon's dad has a heart attack, the Halloween episode and "Betrayal."

I hated the Christmas episode, "Weekend" and "Father Figures". Like OP said, the series felt so "real" sometimes, but these three episodes felt like they belonged in a sitcom. The Christmas one isn't too bad, I just hated the stunt-casting of Juliana Hatfield.

I like Other People's Mothers. When Rayanne over doses and Patty shows up. I remember being a lot like Angela and always wanting some one else's mom. Of course now that I'm older I adore my mom. But moms are always annoying at age 15ish....

I love Patty because the actress is so over the top and cheesy with that fake smile. Such great acting.

"Self Esteem" or "The Zit."
