Top 5, chronological order.

"Welcome to Happy Harbor" :: Worst animation from any episode in this series. Fairly flat story despite revolving on introducing Miss Martian and, to some extent, Red Tornado. Extremely lackluster compared to the pilot, etc.

"Schooled" :: Yeah, I've never been fond of Hulk-ish Superboy. And Miss Martian seems to have caught a LOT more flack in-universe for a much more meaningless mistake by in "Welcome to Happy Harbor." I think they call that 'Disonant Morality' or something like that. Not sure, but I wasn't too crazy.

"Denial" :: I loved the fight between Doctor Fate and Klarion, and Kent Nelson was pretty awesome man (plus he was voiced by Ed Asner~<3), but the rest of the episode was just plain irritating, particularly Wally's hitting on M'gann and his quibbles with Artemis.

"Disordered" :: Like many others, this is mostly because of Superboy's subplot (I know it was intended to be the main plot, but to me, it'll always be a subplot, particularly becuase of how random it was). The therapy scenes, however, are some of the best snippets of psychological analysis and character development I've ever had the pleasure of watching. This episode could very easily have been one of my favorites ever if it had focused more on that and less on random shenanigans.

"Happy New Year!" :: I did NOT hate this one. But it really confused the hell out of me. It took me a couple of rewatches for me to wrap my mind around the time skip and to try and follow the changes and modifications.

Some (dis)honorable mentions go to "Alpha Male" and "Performance."

I think both episodes were wonderful, but something about each irked me a bit too much. For the former, it would be how annoying the team's in-fighting was. Got old VERY quickly for me. For the latter, it would be that the episode was Robin-centric but it didn't have as much gravity as say "Image" or "Insecurity." Even "Coldhearted," which for the most part was actually fairly lighthearted, felt like it delivered a lot more on an emotional level. Considering "Performance" dealt in good part with the murder of Dick's parents, aunt and cousin, whereas "Coldhearted" dealt with Wally trying to save the life of a 10-year-old girl whom he didn't really give a damn for until like the third act of the episode, yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and say episode 24 was a bit disappointing/underwhelming.
