The Christmas episode gets my vote too. Becker helping Chris with the dropped groceries was a wonderful scene and the scene where he told Helen that he didn't know if there was somebody else was probably the most touching scene on any show so far this season. Plus, the side story with Linda and Margaret and the singing was both funny and touching. You don't usually see Margaret trapped like that.

Speaking of Margaret, last night's episode was very good. I knew Becker hadn't really forgotten, but the toast was unexpected. It was a very good scene.
Linda saying "Happy Annie very sorry" cracked me up. There's nothing funnier than Linda when she tries to drop hints. Jake's keyboard was also very funny.
A fine episode to start 2003, but the Christmas episode remains, IMO, the best episode of the 2002-2003 season so far.
