Colby Episodes

[rainalin.livejournal.com]

I'd like to request a list of Colby specific episodes of Numb3rs.
Beyond The Mole, Janus List and Trust Metric, what episodes would you recommend as an introduction to Colby?
Thanks for the help.

Rainalin

EDIT: Wow, thanks for all the suggestions. I foresee a marathon in my future.

Umm, Colby and Megan were new at the start of Season 2. So the 14th episode, S2E1 "Judgement Call" was the first time we saw them. But that wasn't presented as the day they joined Don's team like David did at the start of the Season 1. So logically, both must have joined some time between the end of Season 1 and the start of Season 2.
The only fic I've read where Colby's kind of introduced (and Megan, too, in the following chapter) is 'Hello My Name Is Charlie Eppes" by SushiChi on FF.Net. As the title might tell you, it's a short, fairly amusing AU of when both agents meet Charlie. (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3242391/1/Hello_My_Name_Is_Charlie_Eppes)

um... "One Hour"

I second the One Hour and suggest you consider Breaking Point and Blowback.

The people at wolf_tickets might be able to tell you what the good Colby and David episodes are. They have a lot of good scenes in otherwise very Don and Charlie episodes.

Well, as a huge fan of Colby... I'd say any episodes with him in it are good episodes to watch.

But as far as "introduction" episodes:

Season 2:
01 Judgment Call - where we first meet Colby
07 Convergence - just because it's funny
09 Toxin - we learn about where Colby is from
18 All’s Fair - learn a little more about his military background
21 Rampage - a very Colby-centric episode

Season 3:
17 One Hour - a must see
19 Pandora's Box - a different side of Colby

Season 4:
03 Velocity - more about his family
11 Breaking Point - a good Colby episode
13 Black Swan - because Spy!Colby is awesome
15 End Game - more about his military background

Season 5:
07 Charlie Don't Surf - because he's in a wet suit
08 Thirty Six Hours - because he's just awesome

hahaha. Well, you know me - I am nothing if not obsessed with Colby. I'm fairly certain every one in the fandom saw my answer coming from a mile away. LOL.

♥ that icon. The forearm... the sweater... the scratch on his arm that just makes you want to kiss him and make it better. *growls*

I'm curious - why didn't "The Mole' 'The Janus List' and 'Trust Metric' make your list?

[mustangcandi.livejournal.com]

Well, those are Colby-centric and some of Dylan's best... but the requester specifically asked for episodes beyond The Mole, The Janus List and Trust Metric. That's why they weren't on my list. :)

Thank you

[rainalin.livejournal.com]

for the comprehensive list. I appreciate how they're divided by season, it makes it much easier to find the episodes this way.

You're welcome. I'm glad my obsession with Colby and with organization could be useful. haha. :)
