The Bottle Job. Easily my favorite from start to finish. Nate describing an Irish wake (im Irish so I get it). The acting when Nate has to drink again. Then getting thr guy to confess to felonies in a room full of cops. chefs kiss

Tara going "Isn't drinking a problem for him?" And Elliot replying "Drinking isn't a problem, it's a symptom," fabulous exchange.

I wish they had made those cops minor returner like Bonanno they were so funny. And the "emergency fund" scene where they all grab their hidden cash this is my favorite too. Really highlights Tara's skills as well.

I couldn't pick just one. Some of my favorites are The First and Second David Jobs, The Rashomon Job, The King George Job, The Future Job, and The Last Damn Job.

So many awesome choices!

The Studio Job...I think. My son and I have watched this one 1,000,000 times. It's for sure his fave.

The Nigerian Job so I can get going all over again.

The Last Damn Job except that it's over after that.

The one I watched last..... Omg! So many favorites! Easier to pick a favorite season. Season 3 was my favorite.

The Last Damn Job is the season 4 finally. There is still a whole another season after that. The last episode of the original series is The Long Good-bye Job.

u/arizonaraynebows 3d ago

Yes! I was thinking of the Long Goodbye. But also... The Last Damn Job was so good!

The Long Good bye — my least favorite of them

i love the parker-has-a-torn-acl-episode. but lately ive been thinking about one of my favorite lines the nate-in-prison one. they’re escaping and he says “a piece of paper folded 8 times can sustain an enormous amount of weight” and then theres a holdup “did he say 8?” its a tiny joke but i love it. idk why. it fits his character so well too.

The way Sophie's accent got worse and worse in the retellings was hilarious

u/Spock-1701 4d ago

Just a sampling there are lots of them:

Two live crew, Boys/Girls night out, Rashmon, and of course "Nigerians will do nicely."

u/NoUserNamesLeft59 4d ago

I can’t possibly narrow it down to one. Probably can’t narrow it down to ten!

u/Chefpatrick871 Two Good Ol Boys 3d ago

I tried to do it by season but still felt like I was leaving out great episodes.

u/vendettagoddess 4d ago

the rundown job

3

u/Gribitz37 thief 4d ago

I like that one, too.

u/jem630 3d ago

One of my all-time faves!

u/qmabx 4d ago

King George, season 3 finale, Rashomon… all of them!

u/Chefpatrick871 Two Good Ol Boys 4d ago edited 3d ago

I’ll go by season because I can’t pick one. S1: First and Second David jobs (I’m counting it as one long episode). S2: The Bottle Job. S3: The Rashomon Job. S4: Girls/Boys Night Out. S5: The Broken Wing Job (yes there might be better choices for S5 but I love a Parker episode). Redemption: The Grand Complication Job (I wish we could have seen more of Astrid especially after making amends with Parker).

Edit: Also have a soft spot for The French Connection Job because, well, my username.

u/arizonaraynebows 3d ago

Love the broken wing episode!

3

u/ChubbyDude64 3d ago

The Boys/Girls Night Out jobs are my favorites.

The Rundown Job and The Frame-Up Job are also in my top 5 and, IMO, have a similar vibe althoughnot as tightly intertwined.

If I had to pick a single episode The Rashoman Job. Seeing how each person approached the same Job was interesting.

5

u/Same_Accident_9917 3d ago

The Rashomon Job. I love getting to see everyone’s versions of each other & then finding out it was actually someone on the team.

3

u/sanchez1887 4d ago

The Rashoman Job and the various season finales. Outside of that, probably The Frame-Up Job.

3

u/NecroAegis 3d ago

I love 'Last Dam Job'

3

u/Tyrionruineditall 3d ago

The Last Dam Job

3

u/steve3146 3d ago

The broken wing job

The corkscrew job

The low low price job

The ho ho ho job

The inside job

Season 5 has some strong contenders!

u/aerin2309 hitter 2d ago

Boys Night Out and Girls Night Out!

u/GeminiAnon 2d ago

My favorite is Girls Night Out /Boys Night Out.

u/bbjordan87 1d ago

The Rashoman Job. I love everyone's retelling of that night and then how it all comes together at the end.

2

u/MaleficentTell3555 3d ago

I love Gone Fishing Job

u/Silbermieze we'd be the cavalry 3d ago

The Rundown Job or The Long Good-Bye Job, but there are some other episodes that follow closely behind.

2

u/MarySSimard 1d ago

I have to choose just one? That's not fair to all the other wonderful episodes on the show... so I won't! Here's my list:

  • The Bank Shot Job (love the improvisation the team had to do to get Sophie & Nate out)
  • The 12-Step Job (HURLEY 😎)
  • The 1st & 2nd David Job (justice for Nate's son ❤️)

  • The Three Days of the Hunter Job (Sophie went overboard 😅)

  • The Bottle Job (I love bottle episodes!)

  • The Zanzibar Marketplace Job (reuniting with Sterling & Maggie & Sophie making an appearance ❤️)

  • The Inside Job (the villain was devishly evil)

  • The Boost Job (is there anything more hilarious than an unhinged Parker at the wheel?!)

  • The Rashomon Job (obviously!)

  • The Long Way Down (Parker wanting to do the right thing 🥹)

  • The Girls' & Boys' Night Out Jobs

  • The Last Dam Job

  • The Rundown Job (the Golden trio)

  • The Frame Up Job (the older Golden trio 🤭)

  • The Long Goodbye Job (it was the perfect series finale)

Rashomon job and San Lorenzo job. The last one very realistic
