Another Obligatory - Scott's Tots. Unwatchable, I skip the entire episode.
Less obvious - HIMYM's Slap Bet, in the later seasons. In fact most of the running gags were just... hollow, by the end. To the point they were cringey . Marshall's big "last slap" in Season 9 was cringe for the whole episode, him "retelling" the story of him talking to the "three masters", each just being Ted, Lily, and Robin. The entirety of Season 9 was cringey, that episode is hard to watch. It took such a fun running gag... and instead it ran itself into the ground.
Scott's Tots is the best episode in the entire show, and the only one that could fit right into the UK version.
Without a doubt my favorite episode and #2 is so distant I don't even know what it would be. Such a beautifully crafted train wreck of audacity, naivety and avoidable tragedy.
I understand why people skip it, but those are the exact reason I love iy.
