What are your favorite episodes? Outside of Beginner's Pottery I can't think of any class episodes that are really up towards the top of my list and even that still probably isn't in my top 10.

The thing is, even if class oriented episodes aren't that high up there, if the show becomes one wacky story after another then the show is gonna seem really dull really soon.

My favorite episodes from the first two seasons are (in no order):

"Home Economics"
"Environmental Science"
"Contemporary American Poultry"
"Competitive Wine Tasting"
"Conspiracy Theories and Interior Design"
"Introduction to Statistics"
"Modern Warfare"
"A Fistful of Paintballs"
"For a Few Paintballs More"

I guess you could argue Contemporary American Poultry, and the paintball episodes classify as "over the top wacky" episodes. Possibly Conspiracy Theories as well, although it still feels like its more than just craziness since it involves a lot of exploration of Greendale. The other episodes I feel have tons of funny parts that are relatively creative. I feel Troy and Abed need to have more episodes where they are teamed up with other characters.

Maybe its just me, but it feels like season 3 has been a lot of:

Troy and Abed doing something together
Britta being awkward/failing at something
Jeff doing something really dark

Im fine with all those things, its just every episode it kinda gets stale

Its not like season 3 is garbage or anything, its still a top show on television right now. It just hasn't been as good as seasons 1 or 2. I might get a lot of flack for this, but I actually think Remedial Chaos Theory is only the 2nd best episode this season, Foosball and Nocturnal Vigilantism being the best. It was wacky, but also pretty believable.
