    Help me - I need a TV Scene for Acting Class

    I'm looking for a good scene from any TV show for my acting class. I need it to be 3-6 minutes and include 2-4 people. I'm a white male in his 20s who can play characters in their late teens to early 30s. The other actors in the class are all in the same age bracket.
    Scenes that work the best are ones that can be lifted out of context and still make sense - with a good beginning, middle, and end. Also, it can't be too technically demanding - so something with really great dialogue works best. An example of a scene that worked really well in class is the scene from "Girls" between Lena and her gay ex-boyfriend.
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    My first impulse is to say Deadwood, but I don't know which scene exactly I would point to.

    As brilliantly funny as this is, I'm looking for something different. But this would be a great scene to bring in for stage combat class!

    It's not on YouTube, but the Drugs Bust from Sherlock S1 Ep 1 (A Study in Pink) is a pretty good acting showcase. The whole show's on Netflix if you have it.
