Mad Men
2x11 The Jet Set
Shocking surprises and windy twists -- hurrah! Mad Men certainly seems to be building up to a big finale.
Have also realised that the lead character has an amusing name for us British viewers: he goes by the name Don Draper, though his secretive real name is Dick Whitman -- making him Dick/Don. Which sounds a bit like Dick & Dom. Hilarity ensues, I assure you.

The Mentalist
1x06 Red-Handed
This episode manages to both avoid Most Recognisable Guest Star Syndrome and be accurate to real theories, applications and abilities of mentalism (as does the rest of the series). Brilliant.
[Watch it (again) on Demand Five.]
