- A, My Name is Alex. There's nothing like the unexpected loss of a loved one to make a person question their mortality. That type of event hits Alex P. Keaton's (Michael J. Fox) life like a ton of bricks in this two-part award-winning episode from season 5.
- Mr. Wrong. In the '80s, the Rambo action movie franchise was a box office favorite. Sylvester Stallone played the main character, John Rambo, a veteran on a mission to fight injustice.
- The Real Thing. During his sophomore year in college, Alex is interested in finding a girlfriend, so he hits the student directory to look for a match. He finds Tricia, who, on paper, seems like everything that he is looking for in a partner — in other words, she is a lot like him.
