For sure and never will change: S1E9 "The Witch is Back" S1E19 "Out of Sight"
Possibility to change but selected, for now: S1E1 "Something Wicca This Way Comes" S1E13 "From Fear to Eternity" S1E15 "Is There a Woogy, in the House?"

What picks I choose here are obviously the first episode which started the whole series 'Something Wicca This Way Comes', 'The Witch Is Back' because it introduced the sisters ancestor Melinda who I liked and Matthew Tate a good villain with a cool ability to copy other people's powers himself.
My third choice is 'From Fear To Eternity' as that introduced Barbas who I thought was another good villain played well by Billy Drago (RIP). I liked the concept of him only being able to appear every 13.000 years and how he specifically went after witches plus his power working on fear like Freddy Kreuger from Nightmare On Elm Street although I never saw the film. Not a horror fan sorry. The episode itself felt scary enough for me to watch it but not overall scary that I couldn't of course.
Third pick is 'Is There A Woogy In The House' another great episode which introduced what was special about Halliwell Manor having being built on a spiritual nexus. The Woogy as a villain was a cool concept. I liked how he came from under the floor in the basement and possessed Phoebe giving her powers and whatnot. The fact he went for her because she'd been born in the house was a nice unique moment also.
And then my last pick which was hard to choose because the second half of season 1 had so many good episodes is 'That 70's Episode' as that introduced Patty and Penny who were good characters especially Penny the badass witch who flung her granddaughters out the front door although she didn't know they were related to her at the time of course. Nicholas was a good villain and I liked the concept of Patty having blessed the ring that protected him which she gave subsequently.
Honorable Mentions
As I mentioned the latter half of season 1 had so many good episodes I've listed here my ranked honorable mentions and whatnot.
1. Wicca Envy because Rex Buckland was a good villain. I loved how he framed Prue for the tiara and was the only person who got the sisters to relinquish their powers and would've probably won had Leo not healed the book. I was on the edge of my seat first time thinking would Prue, Piper, and Phoebe get out of this which they obviously did.
In hindsight I would've not liked Leo healing the book and actually had the sisters have to find a way to get their powers back themselves which took two episodes so we got to see how they thought evil depowered if they could.
2. Secrets And Guys. I liked Max as an innocent who would've been a good person to reintroduce latter on as a young adult explaining what he'd done since Prue helped him and how his psychokinetic power had expanded and everything. This episode showcased how Prue could've been a good mother had she lived past season 3.
3. Out Of Sight. Brett was another good innocent who had good chemistry with Phoebe. I liked how Prue's power expanded from her eyes to hands, Andy finding out their secret although he should've down so early on and that reporter nearly exposing the sisters as well.
4. And finally Deja Vu All Over Again. The reason this is my last honorable mention is that although I loved the concept of Phoebe being the one to know the day was repeating itself through her premonition power and that Tempus and Rodriquez was a good villains I didn't like Andy dying. I wish he'd stayed on past season 1 because I liked his character and partnership with Morris too.
How all these episodes are ranked my change overtime I'll have to see.
