The Hoff's Best Film ...Ever!
1x01 The Hoff's Best Action Film ...Ever!
Cool clips and talking heads -- nice easy viewing... even if some of the talking heads are intensely irritating 'comedians' (no one famous, so I've no names to regurgitate).

Once Upon a Time
2x04 The Crocodile
I love it when Once Upon a Time decides to do an origin episode. It's always glaringly obvious who the unfamiliar new character will turn out to be, but it still takes 45 minutes and a final scene of comically on-the-nose dialogue to reveal that, yes indeed, the pirate captain who called Rumplestiltskin a crocodile before his hand was cut off is Captain Hook.

Pointless
9x26a 500th Show
A special episode to mark the 500th edition of the popular quiz show, featuring the best-scoring teams who didn't win the jackpot. The questions seemed harder than normal too, I thought.
