1.Asteroid blues (in case the order changes again)
Never felt that episode was really a good intro to the show.
But on the other hand it is the typical Bebop story: - Direct intro to the characters, no background - They're out of money - Scenes of boring life on the ship - A classical bounty hunt - Fight scene - Space fight - Cool music - Dark underlying theme - Secondary characters have a tragic ending - They don't get the prime
It introduces correctly the show's universe, its style, its themes, its flow, the omnipresent cool music (though not necessarily the best ones); the very particular style of the fights (fist or space).
So it's actually the perfect introduction to what the show is, it's just not the most exciting one to pull in first time viewers. Though if this episode was in the middle of the show it would be pretty average.
