Okay, we've had favorite episode threads and least favorite episode threads.
But how about a thread detailing your 5 most mediocre episodes?
You know...eps that you watched (you think), and you kinda remember them being funny, but really can't remember much about the episode at all. Your Forgettable Five.
Here are mine:
308- Gamera vs. Gaos: All of the Gamera films run together for me (except Guiron). This one I have the hardest time remembering anything about.
408- Hercules Unchained What I said above about Gamera films is also true of the Hercules ones. This one is the most forgettable for me.
522- Teenage Crime Wave A bland black & white film. I remember an old couple in a house. That's it.
608- Code Name: Diamond Head For some reason, I get this ep mixed up with Secret Agent Super Dragon. Then I look in the ACEG and think, "No, I guess I do remember Super Dragon." This one? Not so much.
808- The She Creature I know I've watched this. I think I remember what the movie is about. Something about a hypnotist and past lives and a ghost? I think? I gave it 2 stars, so I must not have hated it.

310- The Unearthly John Carradine drones on about science, Tor Johnson walks slowly, and then they're some freaks at the end. Not a great episode, but the shorts were good. 317- Viking Women and the Sea Serpent All's I remember is the effeminate prince, who was riffed on greatly, and the waffle host segments. 420- The Human Duplicators Hugh Beaumont investiagtes, some guys gets doppled, and then they fight with Richard Keil. I hardly remember any riffs, but I thought it was okay. 623- The Amazing Transparent Man I had a hard time remembering what came after "The Amazing" while typing it. Great short, bland movie and riffing on it. I can't think of a 5h.

What I'm wondering is how we're supposed to explain why they're forgettable if we can't remember them?
Only ones I can think of right now are Phantom Planet, the Deadly Bees, and Girl in Gold Boots. If you're curious as to why, read my review thread because I sure as hell can't remember (and I just watched GIGB today!).

If you can't think of 5, just list the ones you can. The thread title is more for alliteration purposes than anything else.
And Torgo, you have a valid point about explaining what you can't remember. I just don't want this to become a list thread. So at least say something about your choices.

Here is my Disregardable Dos ;D
Super Dragon, Super Agent, Secret Animal I can't even remember the right title, and refuse to look it up. The Magic Sword Completely forgettable. It wasn't bad and I only saw it once, so it may warrent a second look.

Cutting and pasting takes too much room, so I'll just link my reviews. The Phantom Planet & The Deadly BeesGirl in Gold Boots

Forgettable? Meaning I'd like to forget them or can't remember much about them? HMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I can't remember Hamelt. Just a skull. And my wife walked out on that one. I don't remember. Much. Only because I read the play. Quest of the Delta Knights. This is probably the only ep I remember waiting to laugh....I probably did. But when? and why? Wasn't Pearl in the theatre? I didn't care. The Unearthly. Tor was in that. But what happened? I don't know. I laughed. A little. Overdrawn at the Memory Bank. I watched this one with discussion game crazies and still can't remember a thing. I fingalled my fingal or something. That was funny. And Blurryeye thinks that goofball is a good actor. I disagree. A bad Peter Lorre imitation in there by some other actor. I remember that! Creeping Terror. Women getting sucked up by the vaccum like monster. But beyond that...a goofy ass spaceship? riffs? Maybe I should give this one a second chance.

Hamet- Must've seen this one 30 times and still don't remember much from it.
Unearthly- It had Tor Johnson.
Atomic Brain- All I know is that it is not The Brain That Wouldn't Die but that's what I think of when I think of it...which I never do really.
Terror From The Year 5000- That ugly shiny thing turned into a nurse.
The Undead- I only remember the cleavage.

I can't for the life of me remember anything from:
Overdrawn at the memory bank Future War Gorgo The dead talk back(even the short rings no bells) Gunslinger
I have watched all 5 in the past 3 months and I don't remember laughing much at any.

Well, alright. This may not be fair, but these are the episodes I know I've seen, but can't remember.
First Spaceship to Venus
The Beast of Yucca Flats (Blame my memory! Not me!)
The Killer Shrews
The Dead Talk Back
The Deadly Mantis.

"Jungle Goddess." Don't think I laughed aloud once. Not terrible, just blah.

Terror From The Year 5000- That ugly shiny thing turned into a nurse. I just saw this one and I really liked it actually. Agree with you 100% about "Hamlet" though. Probably my least fav ep ever.

The Horrors Of Spider Island This has actually become one of my all-time favs. I honestly don't know why. Probably all the scantily-clad women. Hated the ep the first time I saw it though.
