How about in Roseanne when Dan finds out that his sis-in-law is getting beaten by her bf, so he grabs his jacket and makes an excuse to leave. Comes back with a swollen fist. Gotta love John Goodman.

Pretty good list by alajones. I agree with all but the last two.

Any episode of a show still in it's original run (not re-runs) should be automatically disqualified. It is still too recent to be deemed "epic."
