That's pretty scary--Last Exit is probably one of my all-time favorite episodes. That, Deep Space Homer, and Homer's Barbershop Quartet may well be my top three (it's so hard to choose). The one issue I have with the list, though, is #19, the spinoff episode, which I absolutely hated. Other than that, not bad, and better than the TVTome one, IMO.

No Hank Scorpio?

I think the Hank Scorpio episode is "You Only Move Twice". I agree, should be on the list.

My favorite quote from that episode:
Hank: Ever see a guy say good-bye to a shoe?
Homer: [chuckles] Yes, once.

And:

"Oh, the hammock district."

"....and the possibility of MORE donuts."

And one of the great computer shut-down wavs of all time, the string of good-byes.


Ep is a classic.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

What about:

"Lisa's Wedding" ?

This was TV Guide's pick as the greatest "Simpsons" episode ever. It perfectly illustrates the magic of the Simpsons Universe.

Anyone agree?

"Little Girl in the Big 10" would make my list.

I do not like any of the episodes that do not prominently feature the Simpson clan.

The "spinoff episode" was one of the worst.

And FWIW, I loved the Behind the Laughter Episode. :lol:
and I consider it in my "TOP LIST"

--------------------------
All but first three are in no particular order:

1. Bart of Darkness
2. Lemon of Troy (some of the best one-liners ever)
3. One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish

The Crepes of Wrath
Bart the Murderer
The Simpsons Christmas Special
Itchy & Scratchy & Marge
Marge On The Lamb
Behind the Laughter
Krusty Gets Kancelled
Cape Feare
Boy-Scoutz N the Hood
Much Apu About Nothing
Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious
Bart the Mother
Marge Simpson in: "Screaming Yellow Honkers"
Viva Ned Flanders
Wild Barts Can't Be Broken

You Only Move Twice should definitly be on their top 25 list.

"Ingenious isn't it Mr. Bont!"

I actually hated the "Itchy and scratchy and Poochie" episode.

blakader 02-02-03 05:43 PM

No Three Men and a comic book
No bart gets an f


Maybe it should have been a top 50 list

RoyalTea 02-02-03 06:51 PM

Am I the only one who loves "$pringfield (Or, How I Stopped Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)"???

edytwinky 02-02-03 10:48 PM

I think it's impossible to make a top list as there are so many episodes. It would have been better to put them in no particular order.
