From the old TV show “Thriller”, The Grim Reaper which starred a very young William Shatner.

I really always liked The Measure of a Man as my favorite TNG episode.
I also found the first five minutes of
Star Trek TNG - 107 - Unification - I Part 2 very powerful. This was the last time Sarek would appear in TNG. Picard is trying to find out why Spock has gone to Romulus. Sarek is suffering the end stages of a Vulcan neurodegenerative disease. There was something about this scene that always stuck with me and mesmerized me at the time.

When Enik discovers the sleestak aren't distant ancestors of his people, but instead they are his people's future!
Pretty intense for a supposedly kid's show

“Home” was revolting enough that it may well be why I stopped watching X-Files. In any case, the episode can’t really be classified as sci-fi, so doesn’t belong on such a list. Similarly, as excellent as “Hush” was, Buffy was a horror show, not sci-fi. There definitely should have been a showing by Babylon 5, such as “No Surrender, No Retreat.” The scene where Londo implores G’Kar to bury the hatchet is one of the most powerful scenes I’ve ever seen on television.

I could have chosen several Star Trek episodes. I liked 'The Balance Of Terror' allot.
I really liked several Babylon 5 episodes. A big battle episode and an episode with the friendly wierd unknown aliens that wore the big robes.

Home was by no means the best episode of the X-Files. The Unnatural and Travelers were much better."Home" was just plain nasty, IMHO. The Johnny Mathis thing was mildly humorous (my mom went to HS with Johnny Mathis, so I got a kick out of that).
My all-time favorite X-Files episode was "Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space.'"
To: Slicksadick
Oh yeah, “Inner Light” was an amazing episode. Easily up there with “Yesterday’s Enterprise.” However, better than those, by far, was “Best of Both Worlds” (part 1 at least). What a nail-biter!

"My all-time favorite X-Files episode was "Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space.'" Is that the one with the most famous comedic acting trio ever "Charles Nelson Reilly"? ;-)

I remember watching it with my Father. We never missed an episode. What seems cheesy today was very high tech and prescient then (communicators, tricorders, medical monitors...sadly no phasers to set on toast).

For Next Generation, I think I would have put “The Inner Light” on the list instead of “Yesterday’s Enterprise”. As others have said, both SG-1 and Babylon 5 should be represented on that list. The Quantum Leap episode “Good Night, Dear Heart” should be a contender. I don’t count Buffy the Vampire Slayer as science fiction, unless you want to open the door to fantasy and superhero shows. I think Lost is iffy as science fiction and it had some excellent episodes but I’m not sure I would consider “The Constant” the best. My tastes are somewhat quirky so I’ll leave it at that.
