Ahahahaha Mohinderfly. BEST PART OF THE SEASON, OBV. Not that that would be difficult. As for my own choices--there is a Second Doctor episode called The Mind Robber where the characters save the day by 1) a 14-year-old girl summoning her favorite comic book hero and 2) writing RPF. So yeah. Can't beat the classics, guys. Honorable mention goes to that episode of Monster where everyone just went around saying 'Domo' all the time. I'm still not sure if that might have been Urasawa trolling everybody in a fit of work-induced madness.

If it had all been as wildly out of nowhere as the Mohinderfly, it might even have been worth watching for the crack value! It is a shame that it went on to be terrible in more boring ways. :(

Also: HAHAHAHA AWESOME. I am always so pleased by stories where characters write their own internal fanfiction, especially if they save the day thereby; it fills me with hilarity every time.

. . . really? The TV version had a full episode of that? I mean, I remember that in the manga, but it went by pretty fast . . . so my guess is that someone on the animation staff was really easily entertained.

I don't remember if it was a full episode or a half-episode--apparently most of the episodes covered two chapters each--but yes, the domo was there, and it was glorious. THE DOMO IS EVERYWHERE. IT IS ETERNAL. (my friends still have this picture on their dorm window.)

I had never actually wanted to see Monster until I read this sentence.

Wanting to see Monster is a great and wonderful feeling that should be experienced by all! Perhaps not solely due to a strange random episode that does not have most of the main characters in it, though. *g*
