- DirectorDon WeisStarsAndy GriffithRon HowardDon KnottsPride in what other people think presents itself to Andy two-fold when he hears that Opie gave only a measly three cents to a school charity fund, and when a two-years-dead husband walks up to say hello.This is easily my favorite episode of all-time from my favorite show of all-time.
- DirectorTim AndrewStarsJaime BergmanRoland KickingerLeila ArcieriNotch and his crew, along with the mayor, head to Hawaii and learn an old friend's daughter is a drug lord. B.J. and Jamaica compete against one another in a bikini contest.The show itself is silly but that's what I like most. This episode has singing and misunderstandings and a surprise oil wrestling match.
- DirectorJohn FloreaStarsLorne GreenePernell RobertsDan BlockerHoss scares a bear that has treed a green-clad little man, subsequently finds a buried strongbox filled with bags of gold dust and, when both the treasure and its owner disappear, unsuccessfully tries to convince his skeptical family that he'd discovered a leprechaun's hoard. But the whole town goes searching for the mythical men after a newly arrived Irish professor confirms the presence of multiple leprechauns...and their gold!Used to watch this show in daily reruns as a kid. This one stood out from the others.
- DirectorRichard C. SarafianStarsTelly SavalasMary LaRocheTracy StratfordFrustrated Erich Streator does battle with his stepdaughter Christie's talking doll Talky Tina, whose vocabulary includes such unconventional phrases as "I hate you" and "I'm going to kill you".Toy dolls still freak me out. As does seeing Telly Savalas with a little bit of hair.
- DirectorRod DanielStarsGary SandyGordon JumpLoni AndersonThe Tarlek family is profiled on "Real Families". Herb and people being interviewed seem rehearsed, so the producers of the show "dig deep" and expose the real Tarlek family.It centers around Herb and his family life. Pretty funny stuff.
- DirectorJeff MelmanStarsCharlie SheenJon CryerAngus T. JonesParody of "CSI" in which a body is found in Charlie's bed, and detectives try to figure out who is the killer.One of the funniest from the series. Plus,
Jenny McCarthy and Jamie Rose in the same episode. - DirectorLeonard R. Garner Jr.StarsTim DalySteven WeberCrystal BernardBrian's vow to find deeper relationships is tested by beautiful but dumb Dani. Joe tries to deal with his best friend's not inviting him to a wedding.Another one with Jenny McCarthy. She is funny as crap in this one.

- DirectorSteve BinderStarsBob DenverAlan Hale Jr.Jim BackusThe rock band "The Mosquitoes" arrive on the island for some much-needed R&R.

- DirectorRobert ParrishStarsRod SerlingJames DalyHoward SmithTired of his miserable job and wife, a businessman starts dreaming on the train each night, about an old, idyllic town called Willoughby.
