Favorite Non-Horror Episode?

What would you say your favorite "non-horror" related episode of T.F.T.C. was? I'll start;

I really liked the one with Michael and Kirk Douglas, "Yellow" I believe was the name. The one where M.D. plays a solider that abandons his platoon in one of The World Wars, and then must face consequences for doing so.

Your pick?

I feel like horror can be a little subjective here, but I guess I'd say "Yellow" as well.

And it's Eric instead of Michael Douglas.

If The Man Who Was Death counts, then that. Could be argued it's more of a revenge/vigilante thriller than outright Horror.

IMO by far the best non-horror episode is Death of Some Salesmen.

I liked The Kidnapper with Steve Coogan. He gave a good performance in that one, so although it was not really recognizable as a Tales from the Crypt horror tale, I enjoyed it.

I agree. That was an underrated one.

"Yellow" and "You, Murderer".

For me it's The Trap. I love Teri Garr and the episode always feels like a full length movie to me.

"Cutting Cards" - I only wish it were a little bit longer, as it seems to end rather abruptly.
