Mine is El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer. Other favorites: -Life on the Fast Lane -One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish -The Way We Was -Homer at the Bat -The Otto Show -Last Exit to Springfield -Deep Space Homer -And Maggie Makes Three -22 Short Films About Springfield But almost every episode of the first ten seasons is great, at least to me. Except the clip shows :-D.

The Treehouse of Horror episodes are my favorites. I look forward to them every year. My favorite skit from those was the toaster that was a time machine and kept sending Homer back to the dinosaur age. Everything he did changed the future. It was hysterical.

... and the crossover with [i]The Critic[/i] ; as much as I enjoy both shows, the crossover? It stinks! My favorite episode probably is "Scenes from the Class Struggle in Springfield" -- the one where Marge wears a nice dress while pumping gas and gets invited to the country club. A close second is "Das Bus" (model U.N. trip goes bad). But give me anything by John Swartzwelder or Ken Keeler and I'm happy. Among more recent episodes, "The Food Wife" (Marge + kids become foodies) and "Sky Police" (Marge + Ned + a few others count cards to make money at Blackjack) stick to mind as good. Oh. And the "Who Shot Mr. Burns" saga. Lastly, if you enjoy the show and haven't watched your favorite episode(s) with DVD commentary, see if you can find the time to do so. [i]The Simpsons[/i] and [i]Futurama[/i] have pretty good commentary tracks.

The Crepes of Wrath - One of the funniest parts is when Bart realizes he can parlez Francais!

I can't find a clip of Mr. Lisa goes to Washington. Alert, alert! We have a little girl who lost faith in democracy!

Anything from the first 2-3 seasons, like anything else, once sponsors get seriously involved -  all goes downhill.

Personally, I think the show was better when it was based on Bart, instead of all the old men trying to imitate homer.

The show needs to die, but the networks are too gun shy to let a new show really grow. Family guy is getting weak too. The best show currently on Sunday night is *Bob's Burgers*

I don't know the episode names, but...

The one with Hank Scorpio
The chili cookoff one
The B Sharps
Mr Plow
Bart gets done for shoplifting, more specifically, the "capisce/catfish" scene
Where Homer gets all that sugar
Homer gets morbidly obese
The foodie one as @Shindig mentioned
Hipsters move in next door


Again, at a loss for the actual name, but the one where Homer and Barney try out for NASA cracks me up, especially when Barney falls off the wagon and steals the jet pack. B

    • I don't think the viewer at home can pick up on pace of play, unless the announcers mention something. The telecast has the luxury of bouncing from player to player, which ensures we the viewer always have something to watch.  I think we would notice pace of play if the camera just followed one golfer for an entire round. Or  You were actually golfing behind the slow group Or  The slow group is the last to only group left to finish the tournament.  I like the idea of having a person carrying a digital clock, following each golfer. When the golfer gets to the ball and the group in front of them has cleared they have 60 seconds or they get a penalty stroke. Maybe a second violation is a 2 stroke penalty.  Or as I have said before, every golfer wears a shock collar!!!!! at 1 min 1 second that golfer if going to drop. It will take them a good 30 second to recover, leaving them with another 30 seconds to hit the shot. The course would be littered with golfers just convulsing on fair way from an endless cycle of shocks because they cant seem to hit their ball and keep pace of play. 
    • This isn't the same thing.  This is entirely a time of year thing. Not a trend.  This is the COVID year.  There are many who think the Masters viewership was actually way up. The 2024 ratings being down is only for CBS televisions. It doesn't include anyone (including me) who watched it online. 
    • Ha, I didn't even notice that "NFL competition" part… I just dismissed it on face because pause has very little if any role in TV ratings.
    • Wait a second. That is a bit misleading to drag a 4 year old headline about the ratings when the Masters was delayed during the pandemic. The 2024 ratings were down but not to the extent that this headline would imply. Also, @iacas is correct. Any ratings drop has very little, or perhaps, nothing to do with pace of play.
