I'm back... Howdy Varda!
I agree with your list of fave eps and your reasons why.
Okay, my list...in order...by season.
Season 1:
Rising: If for no other reason than the Orange Fleece of Yum!
Hide and Seek: Hero Rodney! Whumped Rodney!
Childhoods End: Rodney with kids...'nuff said. Also Hero Rodney...he did protect those kids after all.
Home: Boxers Rodney! Lounging on the couch showing off his legs.
The Storm/Eye: Wet, whumped and scared Rodney.
Hot Zone: Some Rodney Whump...nano-virus induced tho he was cool throughout...no freak outs!
Before I Sleep: Okay, I just have one fave scene in this one...Rodney asleep on the ancient scanner bed, just...aww!
The Siege Part 2: Happy Rodney getting Zedpm! Oh, and the gun!porn
Season 2:
The Intruder: Yet more whumping.
Runner: Whump! Hanging upside down from a tree... Poor David, he shouldn't have had that fish dinner before filming.
Duet: "I'm not crazy! I just have another consciousness in my brain!" ...and whump(passing out THREE times!).
Aurora: Rodney going into the virtual environment to save Sheppard. And looking better than Sheppard in those white uniforms.
The Hive:Rodney overdosing on the wraith enzyme - "That's one hell of a karate chop!" - and the withdrawal is a killer, I love it!
Epiphany: Rodney is the only one who recognizes the real trouble Sheppard is in. Love it when he's finally able to get that point across to the others...about not wasting time and his WE HAVE TO HURRY UP OR HE'S GONNA DIE! DON'T YOU GET IT??? attitude. And this: "Yes, M.A.L.P. on a stick! Very clever. Are we done?"
[B]Grace Under Pressure:[B] Let's see, there's the whump, the humor(crazy hypoxic Rodney), the whump, the wet Rodney and, oh yes, the WHUMP! ...with blood!
The Tower: The scythe wielding Rodney...OH YES!
The Long Goodbye: Just a fave scene again...Rodney getting stunned!
Coup D'etat: Soilder Rodney...in yellow glasses/goggles! ...and he gets gassed, whump!
Season 3:
Sateda: Arrow in the ass, too much morphine...nuff said.
Common Ground: "Alright, people, let's do this one by the numbers. We get in, we get our man, we get out. Stay sharp and stay alive." The soldier in him gets to come out and play...love love LOVE this scene! I hated it when Ronon shot him down.
McKay and Mrs Miller: Ahh, sibling Rivalry at its best! And emotional Rodney whump...plus TWO Rodney's...Rod may be cute but Rodney's the one for me! Oh, and Rodney's reaction to Madison hugging his lags is priceless! Also, the scene on the Daedalus when Sam mentions their cute Canadian accents when they said "Sorry." Love it.
Phantoms: WHUMP! Rodney gets shot by Sheppard...accidentally.
The Return Part 1/2: There be whump here, hands in forehead thing. The torture too hideous and personal to recount. Love the scenes in the Jumper and Rodney's "Ooh, dear." ANd the scenes with Rodney and Jack are great. Funny but great.
Echoes: Whump! Passes out with a nose bleed. Ruptured eardrums, hearing impaired...temporarily.
Tao of Rodney: Whump, death if not near death. Passes out twice! Superhero!Rodney...levitating Carson? Priceless! Love when he mentally switched Ronon's blaster from 'kill' to 'stun'.
The Ark: Rodney in that silly orange suit. "Time for the 'How Screwed We Are' report!" "Oh no. No. (Into radio) I’ve got a problem here! ... I’m alive! ... I’m dead! I’m so dead!" LMAO!!!
Sunday: Sad Rodney.
Oh so sad! Emotional whump and angst abound! Love the scene where he's cleaning out Carson's quarters as well as the scene at the end.
Vengence: Whumped by a huge honkin ugly bug. "I think you singed my eyebrows! D’you think you used enough dynamite there, Butch?"
I guess no one got Carsonskitty's pun but me then, huh?

Apart from Michael - one scene I think *yawn* *skip* But of course any Michael/Rodney interaction is purely fanon... my Reavengeance fanon/AU 
A worried Rodney going after Jennifer
"Peachy."
Fixed.
