When I'm watching a show on DVD, I tend to watch the whole thing in order. However, sometimes I'll reach an episode where it's just not worth my time to watch it again. Thankfully, it usually only happens once per series, but it happens.
Angel, "She."
99% of this series is excellent. However, this bizarre female circumcision allegory just doesn't do anything for me. I still watch the classic opening sequence with Angel's bad dancing. But after that, I skip right over it.
Doctor Who, "Love & Monsters" and "Fear Her."
I'm not a fan of these episodes of sci-fi shows that make fun of nerds. Furthermore, the ending with Moaning Myrtle being resurrected as a block of concrete is supposed to be hopeful but just ends up creepy. "Fear Her" has too little of the Doctor in it and the little girl's whispery voice is annoying. All in all, when "The Satan Pit" ends, you're better off jumping ahead to the big, season-ending invasion in "Army of Ghosts."
The Catherine Tate Show.
It's a sketch comedy series. So while there's something likable in each episode, there are certain skits that I just can't stand. Mostly, it's that excitable married couple that laughs at everything. Seriously, what is supposed to be funny about that? I hit the fast-forward button every time one of their skits comes up.
So what episodes do you skip when you're re-watching some of your beloved favorite TV shows?
