Which planet is the easies to spot through a telescope?

The Earth is definitely the #1 easiest. Next in line would be Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Mercury. Each of those is visible without a telescope, so you'd know exactly where to point your telescope by seeing the planet with your eye first. The brightest planet that you do need a telescope to see is Uranus. So you definitely won't miss it when you're pointed at it, but you need to know where to point.
