My personal favorite would have to be "Duff Gardens" What does everybody else think?

i've always liked the one where John Waters plays the gay guy that becomes friends with the Simpson family. Homer doesn't find out he's gay until towards the end. I'm not sure that's may favorite, but it's up there.

That one's my favorite. It's so hard to pick just one though!

I also LOVE the one where Marge sees a psychiatrist about her fear of flying.
The episode is hilarious (as usual) and includes parodies of Cheers and Lost in Space.

The one where Homer enrolls in Krusty's Clown College. All the gags hit the target on that one. Some of my favs:
Homer putting "speed holes" on his car with a pickax, Homer beating up the Hamburglar ("Stop!, *kid sobbing* He's already dead!"), and Krusty & Homer riding the tricycle at the end.

Homer at Clown College and...

Anyone remeber the puppies episode? Where Homer kept trying to eat the chips and the puppies kept jumping up and taking them? It was really dumb but I was ROTFL.

"Mmm... potato chip. Doh!"

"Mmm... potato chip. Doh!"

"Mmm... potato chip. Doh!"

Since Ralph Wiggum is my favorite, it's either the one where Lisa gives him a Valentine (You choo-choo-choose me?) or the one where Bart is forced to play with Ralph.

My favorite is "One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish", which is the one when Homer eats the blowfish and has 24 hours to live.

My favorite parts:

Dr. Hibbert's 5 stages of death anxiety
&
Homer: Marge! Why did you let me sleep so late?
Marge: You looked so peaceful lying there.
Homer: There'll be plenty of time for that!

Nobody has one favorite. My two are:

Oh Streetcar! Parodies of Atlas Shrugged, the Great Escape and The Birds in the same episode. Woohoo!

Homer starts his own religion after he stops going to church. It's got the space-age moon waffle.

My all-time fave is from the first season. The one where Homer buys the RV and takes the family camping. Non-stop laughs.

The one where Homer buys a gun is second.

The monorail one is great, too.

They're all good.

Man, even when The Simpsons sucks, it's still pretty good.

I agree. My top 5 are:
Lemon of Troy - Shelbyville kids steal the Springfield lemon tree, and a gang of young Springfield kids led by Bart try to get it back
Homer the Great - Homer joins a secret cult, the "Stonecutters"
'Round Springfield - Lisa mourns the death of her hero, Bleeding Gums Murphy, the late jazz musician
Springfield Connection - Marge becomes a cop
Who Shot mr. Burns? Part 1 - The town's most prominent 104 year old man is shot, by who?

Lemon Tree was my favorite but also like the episode when Milhouse's parents get divorced.

Can I borrow a feeling?
