If I'm not mistaken, an identical thread has been done ages ago already. It must be somewhere on the previous pages.

Yes. I wholeheartedly agree. Out of the 300+ episodes of The Simpsons, only one stands out among the rest.

That episode is...

Hmmmm...Seeing that there's two, er, at least two different kinds of Simp episodes, the ones grounded in reality (Yayyyy!!) and the totally goofy ones (Boooo...well, there are a couple that are a scream, taken for what they are)

#1    Lisa's Substitute: The bonding between Lisa and Homer is just a joy to watch over and over again. Her heart being ripped out as Ms.Hoover erases Mr.Bergstrom from her life just as she was planning on having him over for dinner...man, that was painfully perfect. Homer's initial response to her feelings of whoa at the dinner table...ouch again. But the payoff was the clincher as Father and Daughter have a heart to heart and Lisa finds the strength to chase down a train and say good-bye. This was a great episode from start to finish.

#1a  Bart gets an Elephant:

This zany episode had me cracking up from the get go with Homer "winning" the call for cleaning the basement. He choses a leaf blower..."...and that's that!). The little gremlins that appear after pouring the cleaning liquid onto the floor...(KEEP IT DOWN! ...ahhhh aaahhh). The whole idea that someone could stand up to a company and demand they get what they were promised...THAT was a great piece of writing! Bart was the perfect choice for being someone "commited" enough to get what he wants and he does so by tormenting the KBBL station until they give in and say "Here's your damn Elephant!". Now we're given the chance to see how life would play out with an Elephant in our backyard. The reactions from the other animals, SLH and Snowball 2...not to mention the entire dog population of Springfield! (100 dogs howling...1 elephant trumpeting...all's quiet.) The rest of the episode is filled with very simple, yet highly amusing gags that work so well because of the platform they were given by this storyline. Borderline stupid, but embarrassingly, side-splittingly funny. What can I say..."I want my Elephant".

PS: In a miscellaneous category, I would have to go with THE CARTRIDGE FAMILY: Perfect in every possible way. It shamelessly showed just about every angle for pro's and con's of gun control...and in an incredibly humerous way! "Be careful Homer!" "I don't have to be careful, I got a gun."

Ah yes, Lisa's Substitute. Believe it or not, that eppy made me cry. I'm not sure why, but I think it's because it's somewhat of a sad episode. Actually, it is a sad episode.

Many great ones here. (Even though this subject has definitely been done before.) I have to choose the top ten (though I can't really rank them internally, they're too good), and that's still bound to miss out on some great ones.

"Life on the Fast Lane": I got close to crying at the end of this. A wonderful romance, plus bowling!

"Lisa's Substitute": Well, what everyone else said.

"Last Exit to Springfield": As Steve said once, almost every line and scene in this episode is quotable. From the initial McBain scene to "oh, I left the gas on"... splendid, pure fun.

"A Streetcar Named Marge": Another lovely look at the relationship of Marge and Homer, plus some of the best tunes ever.

"Treehouse of Horror V": Probably my favourite THoH, which is saying a lot. I'm lost for words on this one.

"Lemon of Troy": The episode that got me hooked on the show. Says it all, really.

"Who Shot Mr Burns?" (both parts): The episodes-plus-cliffhanger that ensured my *staying* hooked. Plus, it is a wondrous appearance by Mr Burns in all his evil glory.

"Treehouse of Horror VII": A close second. Lovely in all respects, especially the "Citizen Kang" segment.

"The Secret War of Lisa Simpson": Well... Lisa in the army. What more could anyone wish for?  Smiley

Well... there are plenty more, but these were at the top of my mind. And you've got to admit, there's a lot to choose from.

I'm so into you
But I'm way too smart for you
Even my henchmen think I'm crazy
I'm not surprised that you agree.
If you could find some way to be
A little bit less afraid of me
You'd see, the voices that control me
From inside my head say I shouldn't kill you yet.
