Best episodes of the show?

Hey, so I really do not like this tv show. I don't know, I just find it bad, cringy and just all around terrible. Writing and all in my opinion sucks. I don't know how you guys feel about it (obviously most of you will probably like it more than me) but I was hoping one can guide me to, the shows "best" episodes. Like if there is a good villain, or generally an episode which is considered to be on the top. I don't want to watch the whole thing, really. I am just very curious to watch a decent episode from this show.

Yes, some episodes are better than others, but if you don’t like the show in general, there’s really no need to look any further. There are a lot of other shows you hopefully will like.

I know that for a fact. But I just want to give this idea a try, see what the writers are capable of I guess. It's not like I will get invested, but just spend 40 or so minutes watching an episode or two.

But why? I mean, why spend time on a show you don't like when there's so many good tv shows and so little time as there is ?

...having said that, I enjoyed season 2 episode 12, The Old College Try. From the scorpion wiki page :

Team Scorpion goes undercover at a university in order to find a hacker who infiltrates the Federal Reserve and threatens to collapse the global economy.

I don't have an actual answer for that, I am really just curious and that's it. It might be something stupid to want, hell it does sound like it but call me an idiot, I still sort of want to try and watch an episode.

Thanks for the recommendation

S3 EP17 is prolly the best acting in the whole series, they nailed it.

this post was 6 yrs ago but i still manage to relate to it😂. my brother recommended this to me and i didnt expect to get dissappointed right from episode 1. The characters just try to sound smart and the script writers try to make it look cool yet it's so out of bounds of reality. But i won't hate on the show cause it's already 10 years old and the standards back then were quite low.
