Everyone seems to agree that the Sugar Summer Special was extremely well done, and provided needed closure to the series. It's one of the best anime "extras" that I've seen.
But what's the worst? My nomination goes to Fushigi Yuugi Eikoden, which manages to negate every major plot point of the series. Wonderduck suggests the Elfen Lied special (which I haven't seen).

Evangelion: Death. A movie, rather than a bonus episode... but it was a movie that consisted entirely of recaps. It was double-billed with Rebirth... but that itself was included in End of Evangelion. So basically, the whole Death/Rebirth movie was redundant.
Pilot Candiate/Candidate for Goddes - The whole series is told entirely in exposition. So's the movie.
The Onegai Twins OVA tends to mess up the ending of the series, so let's mention that as well. Hopefully, one of these qualifies.

The original OAV series is better than the first TV series. The first movie (Tenchi Muyo in love) is one of my all time favorites, but its a derivative of the first TV universe. Anything with Sammy / Pixy Misa is a guilty pleasure and yet another spin-off universe. The other subsequent TV series range from so-so to pretty lousy. The second movie is pretty bad, and the third is merely ok.
My personal favorite bonus episode is the 14th episode of Dual. Although it completely destroys the premises of the final episode of the regular series, it throws a very odd yet amusing spin on the whole affair.

Except for the Pretty Sammy TV series, which rocks. Because it has Pixy Misa in it. (And because it's a good story, well told.) The Pretty Sammy OVAs aren't that great, though I like the second one, which is an unashamed assault on Microsoft for operating-system bloat.
