A simple thread and a topic I myself have to think about for a little bit, what are your favorite episodes of this gigantic franchise?
Some that come to mind for me:
The episodes of the original Ultraman that feature Neronga and Geronimon, the Gudon and Twin Tail episodes of Jack, the Dinosaur Tank episode of Ultraseven, the Silvagon episode of Tiga, etc. Still really have to think about others, however.

Re: Favorite Episodes of the Franchise
Too hard for just one from each series.
Ultraman: The Lawless Monster Zone. Lots of monsters and Science Patrol got to shine plenty. I sort of miss the days when an Ultra got times got to easily curb stomp a monster like his fight with Red King. My Home is Earth of course. Gift From The Sky, I really appreciate it breaking from formula with lots of humor. And of course The Monster Prince two parter.
Ultraseven: The Secret of the Lake, Android Zero Directive, The Targeted Town, Showdown at -140 Degrees, The 700-Kilometer Dash, The Devil in the Flower and The Ultimate Invasion 2 parter.
Return of Ultraman: Two Giant Monsters Attack Tokyo two parter, Terror of the Tsunami Monsters - Tokyo's Big Pinch also two parter, Go to Hell with This One Blow!, In Between a Devil and an Angel and of course...The Boy and the Monster Master.
Ultraman Ace: 30 000 Year Choju Appears, Giant Ant Choju vs. Utra Brothers, Pursue the Mystery of the Transformation Choju, Lend Me the Pigeon, Yapool, Demon of Revenge. Haven't finished this one I admit.
Just doing a post for the Showa stuff I've seen so far.

Re: Favorite Episodes of the Franchise
I love Shoot the Invaders! for how bizzare the 4th wall aspect is.
Demons Rise Again has a special place for the way the city sets were shot. It really made me realize I loved Ultraman for how it seemed Tsuburaya's team got to experiment much more than the Toho kaiju pictures.
I can't remember which episode of Return of Ultraman it was, but either Jiro or his friend was shooting his own little toku flick with Godzilla toys, and fuck me if that just doesn't hit home.
