It's one of the best, but not THE best. Mr. Plow has that title

cman: It's one of the best, but not THE best. Mr. Plow has that title

Eh? What was that name again?

I love the "Homer At the Bat" episode but it's somewhere behind my personal favorites list topped by "Homer Goes to College" and "Homer's Enemy" (a.k.a. the episode with Frank Grimes).

Monorail, monorail, monorail....

Well Mr. Burns had done it,
The power plant had won it,
With Roger Clemens clucking all the while,
Mike Scioscia's tragic illness made us smile,
While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the barroom tile...

We're talkin' softball...
From Maine to San Diego.
Talkin' softball...
Mattingly and Canseco.
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw.
Steve Sax and his run-in with the law.
We're talkin' Homer... Ozzie and the Straw.

I'm sure you meant to say "Last Exit to Springfield"...

You Only Move Twice

"AWWW! The Denver Broncos?!?"

I like King Size Homer best.
"I find ironic that dad's butt prevented the flow of toxic waste"

"one of"

These words need to be added into the title of this thread for it to be truly cromulent.

Very good episode, subby. But El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer is by far and away the best. Johnny Cash as a space coyote just works on so many levels. Link (new window)

This man would like to have a word with you, subby -

/I'll be in my hammock district.

Now with pic goodness-

/I'll be in my hammock district.

Lisa's Rival is my pick for the most underrated episode. The whole Homer's sugar pile subplot just makes the episode great.

/I bent my wookiee

A challenger emerges!

quatchi: fta: "I speak of decency, the moral courage to say what is right and condemn what is wrong," Bush said. "And we need a nation closer to The Waltons than The Simpsons."

LOL, totally forgot that H gave the Simpson's some free publicity back then.

Also, I too thought that the Mattingly sideburns jokes from that episode were an indirect reference to the Yankee's stupid haircut fines he got and didn't realize the dialogue writing and recording of the former preceded the latter.

No disagreement here. That one is my personal fave as well for many reasons.

This is because I kicked you isn't it?

Tortoise nods yes.

/My google-fu is weak atm or I'da hotlinked it as a pic
//The googles, they do nothing!.

slimkibbles: I love the "Homer At the Bat" episode but it's somewhere behind my personal favorites list topped by "Homer Goes to College" and "Homer's Enemy" (a.k.a. the episode with Frank Grimes).

I agree about "Homer Goes To College," but the Frank Grimes one was just depressing. I'd vote for the episode with the lemon tree instead.

Bart Sells His Soul.

/thank you, door!
//remember Alf? He's back. In pog form.
///Pablo Neruda says 'laughter is the language of the soul'
////I am familiar with the works of Pablo Neruda!

My dad and brother say Sideshow Bob Runs For Mayor, which I like quite a bit... but the ending of Sells His Soul just makes me smile.

/you know, some people think that nobody is born with a soul. You have to earn one through suffering, and thought, and prayer, like you did last night
//plus "In The Garden Of Eden", baby!

Another vote for the Mysterious Voyage of our Homer.

And that talking coyote was just this talking dog!
Hiya Homer, find your soul mate!
Wait a minute, there's no such things as a talking dog!
Woof.
Damn straight.

Behind the Laughter, my second favorite

"I was SO gay, but I couldnt tell anyone"

For me it is a tie between "Homers Enemy" and "The Itchy & Scratchy Movie"

/Earl Warren wasn't a stripper!

StreetlightInTheGhetto: Bart Sells His Soul.

Amen. Best Simpson's Episode ever.

That's up in my top 10, maybe top 5, for the same reasons probably as Bart Sells His Soul.

/'tis clear sailing for our precious cargo!
//uh, would that be the hot pants?
///aye, the hot pants!

Now that someone mentioned it though, You Only Move Twice is a classic as well.

/sugar, sure. Sorry it's not in packages.
