Which episodes would you 'blacklist' if ...

On several threads I noticed people had various episodes they don't particularly like so ...

If you were going to watch from the beginning of season 1 all the way through the end of season 7 but you had limited time what episodes would you skip and what episodes would you fast forward through (graylist) to get to particularly scenes.

By season, list your blacklisted and graylisted episodes:

There's a couple of episodes where Joyce is getting more ill (Season 5) that I didn't like, so I'd skip them. I think I'd skip Killed By Death and The Dark Age (Season 2). Also from that season was Bad Eggs, which I felt was total filler and added nothing to the overall plot.

I'm thinking of these off-hand right now, so I'll come back later after having thought about it more

There's a lot of episodes I don't really like, and don't watch as often, like Normal Again and Ted and Bad Eggs, and a lot of season one, but I think the one episode I haven't watched more than twice is Seeing Red.

did I inspire this thread? I see you used the "blacklist"term.

here is my "too bad to watch"list:

Some Assembly Required
Bad Eggs
Dead Mans Party
Flooded
Life Serial (FF to spuffy's date)
surprise
Becoming
Selfless

In addition, I usually watch only the spuffy scenes in Touched and The End of Days. not because I have anything against the rest of it, but because spuffy is what really mattered in those eps.

I don't like watching The Body, I find it way too... serious, for this show. I know a lot of people love it, and I honestly do think it was very well acted, but as far as this show goes, I don't think it suited the tone of it.

Oh yeah and I usually skip Normal Again. I've never really seen anything very special about that ep It's pretty slow-paced and confusing

I wouldn't go that far. Worst ep ever for me was 'Beer bad' I remember cringing. I couldn't belive they wrote something that bad.

I think the Xander/Cordy comic relief moments going on as they were still trying to figure out their relationship were the only things that kept me watching that ep.

Beer Bad is for me just in the "really not impressed" category, along with Living Conditions. I dont cringe, but I dont like it much either...

I think if there actually was a poll for badest ever ep, I would have voted for Some Assembly Required.

Definetley not a great ep. I'd describe it as forgettable.

Some Assembly Required - I dont even remember this episode, lol. Wait, now I do - that was an ok episode ..still liked it.

Ummmm Beer Bad is the worst written episode of the entire series. I dont think it is terriable but it is pretty bad. I mean I still rewatch it and stuff. And Normal Again was just a very upsetting, upsetting episode but I have rewatched that like four times so there really isnt any episodes I would seriously consider skipping.
