One of my favourites is Cause and Effect despite the repetitiveness.
The ship is caught in a temporal loop but with each reset, they somehow manage to remember little bits of the last loop (as déjà vu) even though that contradicts the idea that time is being reset (but anyway... its a fun idea). With each loop, the ship collides with another ship and the crew remembers more and more until they decide to try and break the loop by sending a message back (don't ask how) which Data eventually interprets as changing the method with which they avoid hitting the other ship.
Its a fun romp but it makes you wonder... what if Riker's idea hadn't worked either?
And a nice Kelsey Grammer cameo.

I honestly don't remember this episode. I guess I'll watch it this weekend and get back to everyone.
