2024 has been an eventful year for TV programming. Whether it be high-octane drama-based shows like The Bear, a grueling police procedural like True Detective: Night Country, or a nail-biting show like The Traitors, TV programming in 2024 has been full of memorable moments. As the year comes to a close, it is worthwhile to remember the top five TV show episodes of 2024.
It is a common practice in this day and age to highlight such episodes from TV shows as those that break out from the established pattern of the show or contain cameo appearances from well-known stars.
However, the kind of TV show episodes that eventually reign supreme are often the ones that have an element of transcendence about them. They are the TV show episodes that you can keep returning back to, and also the ones which add new layers of meaning with each successive watch.

Keep reading to learn more about the top five TV show episodes of this year.
1) True Detective: Night Country season 4 episode 5
Simply titled Part 5, this is one TV episode that will certainly live on in audience memory for times to come. The celebrated spin-off show on HBO converged the several seemingly mutually exclusive narrative threads of the season in this episode. On one hand, we learned more about Hank's involvement in the Annie Kowtok case.
A flashback revealed what went down with the Wheeler investigation involving Danvers and Navarro. On the other hand, trouble brewing at Silver Sky mines reached the surface of cognition. The episode ended on a tense note with a father-son clash.
2) The Bear season 3 episode 6
The episode was titled Napkins and proved to be one of the most heartfelt and warm television episodes of the year. An extended flashback sequence reveals how Tina came to work at the restaurant. Tina was down and out of her luck after being let go from an organization where she had worked for the better part of her working life.
Several job applications and subsequent rejections later, she found herself at The Original Beef of Chicagoland. The ten-minute scene where Tina meets Mikey for the first time, with the latter ending up offering her a job as a champion.
3) Baby Reindeer season 1 episode 6
This episode provided unexpected context to the relationship between comedian Donny Dunn and Martha i.e. the individual that has been stalking in. It goes without saying that television episodes containing fiery and passionate monologues are often an instant hit and so was the case with this one.
The episode's highlight was the ten-minute-long monologue delivered by Donny onstage during a comedy show where he speaks about his trauma.
4) Ripley season 1 episode 3
The gorgeously shot black-and-white photography never failed to impress Ripley. The episode, titled Ill Sommerso, marked the first instance of the timid social butterfly Mr. Ripley making his first foray into the murky world of killing. In other news, this episode also brought to bear the souring relationship between Ripley, played by Andrew Scott and the American heir Dickie Greenleaf.
5) The Traitors UK season 2 episode 12

Perhaps the most riveting finale episode from The Traitors UK's second season, this episode took suspense to a whole different level when Harry Clark, a contestant hitherto believed to be faithful, eventually turned out to be a traitor. The twist came as an unanticipated show to many.
