June Something - Day 4
If you were introducing your favorite fandom to someone new, what one episode would you make them sit down and watch?Oh man, good question. My forever fandom is Stargate Atlantis. It really depends on what I want that person to get out of the show.
If they're the type that can't get into the show unless they enjoy the plot/worldbuilding/whatever, I'd probably start with Rising. As I told

mific, it's a great introduction to the series because John doesn't know what the fuck is happening either, so you get to experience everything for the first time with him. It barely has any McShep and Rodney isn't himself (since the role was originally written for a different character) but in terms of plot and the expeditions circumstances, it does a good job.If I wanted to introduce them to McShep, oh boy. The Shrine is probably THE McShep episode and it's really good. But I do think it has more impact if you know the characters when you watch it. John's heartbroken face and Rodney's struggle hurt more. Ooo, I think maybe Miller's Crossing. Rodney's desperation to save his sister is relatable, and he goes to John to get permission to sacrifice himself. And we learn John would go pretty fucking far for Rodney, which speaks to their bond.
My current obsession is Buzzfeed Unsolved, and I'd probably go with the D.B Cooper episode. It's early in the show so the quality isn't as high, but it does a great job showing Ryan and Shane's chemistry. It's genuinely funny and D.B Cooper is a super interesting unsolved case. For Supernatural, maybe the Bigfoot episode? The boys wandering around a forest while Shane makes a stupid Bigfoot call is fun, and they're very cute.

LOL I bet Steven does look dismayed - they're so *weird* and if he's the grounded one...

Poor Steven. He's so pure. He doesn't deserve Demon Shane and Ricky Goldsworth.

I admit I've never seen an episode of Worth It (and don't really plan to) but he seems sweet.
