Top five or ten episodes?

We truly live in a Golden Age of Great TV, as the critics keep telling us. But this has a downside: the dreaded #FOMO, and just not enough time for everything. Now that I have HBO Now and all that network's shows to catch up on, along with my Netflix and Amazon subscriptions, it's just too much (given that I have four kids and also like to play tennis and poker and watch movies).

So I'm trying to triage here. Instead of putting series like this one on the back burner and thinking "someday I'll watch the whole thing", I'm hoping to be clued into what are the very best episodes that have aired thus far (and if and when I get through those, I'll definitely watch the last couple episodes of the series to finish it out).

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer! I really appreciate it.

The thing with Warehouse 13 is that it does follow a story arc every season so it does have an order to watch the episodes in. If say you watch a show from the final season they will make references to characters and events that have happened in the past seasons that you will have missed.

With that being said, you would be better off watching the Pilot episode of the show. That basically will make or break the show for you. Even though the characters act completely different in the pilot than they do in the remainder of the show. My personal favorite season of the show is the second one. It is in this season that the show really finds it's footing and develops into the show it was meant to be.

With that being said I will have to say that other than the first episode my favorite five episodes of the show go like this...

"Duped" Season One, Episode Eight
"Age Before Beauty" Season Two, Episode Four
"Where and When" Season Two, Episode Ten
"Buried"/"Reset" Season Two, Episodes Eleven and Twelve (These are basically the season two finale but over two parts)
"Trials" Season Three, Episode Two
"3...2...1" Season Three, Episode Six
"Personal Effects" Season Four, Episode Three
"The Big Snag" Season Four, Episode Thirteen
"Savage Seduction" Season Five, Episode Four
"Endless" Season Five, Episode Six (This was the series finale)

Season Four was kind of goofy because they essentially made it into two seasons worth of episodes but said that it was one elongated season over two years.
