Hmm... that's a tough one, since the best episodes kind of build on what came before and therefore don't make the best introduction.
I'd say, "Skin," "Home" or "Asylum" would all make good starting points. "Phantom Traveller" is actually one of my three least favorite, though it has its moments.
Or you could just be a traditionalist and start with the pilot. :-) It has some painfully clunky exposition in the first 20 minutes, but it does everything a pilot is supposed to do -- sets up a clear picture of the characters, the mythology and the overall feel of the show.
