As the 100th episode approaches, what about discussing favorite episodes? Least favorite? Best criminal? Best moments?

Is it that time already? Wow, sometimes it seems like only yesterday the show premiered. I have so many that I like, it probably won't be short.
Favorites: Season 1:
The Faithful- the 'Goren show' ;D Smothered-the talk btw Goren & the son at the end. Jones- the ending interrogation of Talbot Third Horsemen-I got to see the characters views on abortion. Crazy- the ending 'evaluation' of the shrink. Phantom Semi-professional Yesterday-the interrogation of Jay
Season 2:
Tomorrow Cuba Libre-Goren & the crazy fashion designer going at it was fun to watch. Con-text- the Eyeball poking Legion Zoonotic-Dr. Stern's 'stripping', Eames & Goren's reactions LOL. Anti-thesis- the intellectual sparring btw Nicole & Bobby. Cherry Red- Goren's reaction to the car, Carver's reaction to the models. Person of Interest- for obivous reasons
Season 3:
Gemini The Gift But Not Forgotten Stray- the ending talk w/ the kids, also getting to see Goren in his dress blues Murderer Among Us- the end, I never get tired of watching Goren swing that pipe wildly around. Sound Bodies- interrogation of Connie Happy Family- the 'family reunion' FPS- Goren gets blindsided again, but Eames wasn't there to have his back, he realizes how much he depends on her. Unrequited Pas De Deux- Bobby's dance w/ Margie, also the 'dance of death'. Ill Bred DAW
Season 4:
In the Dark Magnificat Silver Lining Gone Sex Club Death Roe Beast My Good Name
Season 5: Prisoner Unchained (Logan & Barek) Wee Small Hours (1&2)
As for the best criminal? I would have to say the kid in 'Want' even thought I wasn't too fond of the episode itself, Neil Patrick Harris was brilliant. the 'best moments' are listed above with the favorite episodes.

My three f avorite eps:
S1: Badge Homo Homini Lupus The Faithful
S2: Cherry Red The Legion Shandeh
S3: Pas de Deux Shrink-Wrapped D.A.W.
S4: The Posthumous Collection Great Barrier (but the ending...) Want
Haven‘t seen S5 yet. Concerning the show‘s evolution, I liked: The way the characters were introduced to us in the very first episodes. When I started watching the series I disliked Goren a bit, maybe because IRL he would be a terrible sparring partner for me. But my initial dislike turned into a big crush after having watched about 10 episodes or so. I also liked the way Eames‘ and Carver‘s interaction with Goren evolved. It looks as if Eames learned a lot from Goren during the first two seasons and now she does things on her own. And Carver seems to have understood that he doesn‘t have to love Goren, but that it is possible to work with him -- and come to satisfying results. I disliked Nicole Wallace being Goren‘s arch-nemisis. She‘s only been a semi-interesting character to me, maybe because she relies too much on her appearance. Petite, blonde (at least in the earlier eps), sensuous lips, speaks in a way a little, fragile woman would. Attractive to men and women? Yes, I‘d say. And maybe she‘s even funny, as Goren suggested. But I never believed her to be that smart as she is presented. To me, she seems neither intellectual nor calculating. She got away with all her crimes because of sheer luck, not because of her smarts. But I liked the off-screen introduction of Goren‘s family members. The deceased father, the institutionalized mother, the gambling addict brother, who nearly put Goren‘s eye out with a Jonny 7 all-in-one... But the writers missed the chance to tell us more about Eames‘ family. We only get to know that her father is a cop, too, and that she‘s got at least one sister, and that one of her brothers is a fire-fighter. But they never made it official that she‘s a widow, which is already kinda canon with the fans.
