What a great show! It's difficult to choose a particular episode. hmmm... I always liked the one with Omer's head being used in a japanese commercial for Mr. Sparkle. The ad made me laugh the hell out of me. Yeah! Great episode  ...but there are hundreds of other...  -------------

My favourite one is when Homer put on loads of weight so that he could work from home due to disability. He set up one of those nodding/drinking bird things to hit the Yes button on his computer. "I'm sorry, your fingers are too fat to dial the numbers properly, please hang up". |

^ Yep a classic, wearing his fatman's dress & hat I also like one where Bart gets the Church organist to play I.Ron Butterfly's 'In the Garden of Eden' (which is really Iron Butterfly's In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida). The old dear on the organ launches into a 17 minute keyboard solo, Homer reminises in Church about making out to this song, and members of the congregation hold up their lighters....fabulous

So many good ones. I like the one where Bart becomes barkeep of the crime syndicate. At the end, Bart tells Fat Tony crime doesn't pay off: "I've learned my lesson, Tony. Crime doesn't pay off" "Well, I guess you're right." Fat Tony then rides off in a HUGE limousine. ------------- http://www.soundclick.com/rosescar/ - My music! "THE AUDIENCE WERE generally drugged.

I believe "Lisa the vegetarian" is the best: Homer: Marge, since I'm not talking to Lisa, could you please ask her to pass me the syrrup. ------------- Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends... |

There's one called (I think) 32 Short Films About Springfield, which starts with Bart and Milhouse standing on a bridge wondering about all the people in town - then there are lots of short snippets of all the minor characters, including a brilliant short song about Cleetus the slack jawed yokel and an interlude featuring the Bumble Bee guy which made me laugh longer and louder than I've ever done when not under the influence. ------------- 'Like so many of you I've got my doubts about how much to contribute to the already rich among us...'

I love the "Lemon Tree" episode. Off subject a little, but I love on Family Guy when out of nowhere while Peter is talking, A giant Chicken comes up and tackles Peter and they go for minutes fighting eachother. Anyone else seen that Family Guy? ------------- We got to pump the stuff to make us tough from the heart Its astart What we need is awareness we cant get careless Mental self defensive fitness Make everybody see in order to fight the powers that be |

but that one is my second fav
Selma: So we propose changing our name from "Springfield" to "Seinfeld". Homer: Marge, do you respect my intelligence? Marge: [long pause] Yes. Homer: OK. [turns over] Wait a minute...why did it take you so long to say yes? Marge: [long pause] No reason. Homer: OK. [turns over] Wait a minute...are you humoring me? Marge: [long pause] [resigned] Yes. Homer: OK. [turns over] Wait a minute...that's bad! A STAR IS BURNS -------------

My personal favourites: 1. Homer goes to the chili festival and eats those "insanity peppers" by pouring wax into his mouth. Then he goes on an epic trip, and along the way encounters Jasper, who says "goo goo ga joob" (which I find absolutely hliarious, since I always thought he looked kinda like a walrus anyway), and who could forget the spirit guide coyote, played by Johnny Cash. That is one genius episode. 2. Homer discovers he can take a hit with a cannonball, and goes on tour with such acts as Sonic Youth, Smashing Pumpkins, Cypress Hill and Peter Frampton. I particualrly like the part where they shoot the giant pig balloon at homer, when they discover his "talent", and Peter Frampton claims, "your're damn right I'm going to be pissed off, I bought that pig at Pink Floyd's yard sale" 3. When they go to Duff Gardens and Lisa drinks the "water", then goes on a freaky trip and rips the heads off the little robot people. Then runs in front of the parade and says "I can see the music" then attacks the security guards. Then later she says "I am the Lizard Queen!" 4. When Homer becomes the pothead. "I just realized... I am the ow in the word now." 5. Treehouse of Horror in which Homer find a hammoc that makes clones. One of the clones is actually Peter Griffin, one has no face, one has glasses, one's too fat, one's too skinny, a bunch of those freeze frame things. ------------- http://imageshack.us">

I always liked the Three men and a comic book episode. The one where the family goes to Japan is great. The anime robot show that causes seizures ------------- true as a lobster in a pteredaktyl's underpants.

There is no way to pick one best episode. The ones where they go to Brazil (and Homer gets kidnapped) and the Japan episode (fighting seizure robots) are two of my favorites. ------------- System of a Down, Slayer, Fear Factory, Death, Children of Bodom, Meshuggah, Symphony X, Nevermore, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden. |

I have only seen about 1/2 of the ones you've described ... unfortunately they seem to showing the same loop. Ones I love that haven't been mentioned ... 1) It's revealed that Homer's mother is still alive but had to run off. 2) Abu has numerous children 3) One in which Homer becomes so upset at the old rich guy not recogniising him ... he breaks into his house ... and the feller catches him only to say "Who the devil are you?" 4) Homer becomes a mason ... absolutely superb 5) Bart decaptitates Jebediah Springfiled ... and he and Homer nearly get lynched! But I still think around 80-90% of the ones I've seen are excellent ... ------------- "Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century.

The best episode is where Burns builds a casino in Springfield... Another good one is where the same story is repeated from the point of view of each simpson...it was cool. Although 'The Simpsons' is a great show, no animated series can compete with 'Family Guy'. |
