15. Marge Be Not Proud (S7)
Bart is caught stealing (AKA “four-fingered discount”) a video game, in a rare episode that explores the bond between Bart and Marge – as well as satirising kids’ roving interests.
14. The Itchy and Scratchy and Poochie Show (S8)
A spot-on self-parody of what happens when TV shows have been on the air for a while. Whatever you say about latterday Simpsons, they never introduced a Poochie.
13. A Fish Called Selma (S7)
Everyone knows that (“Hi, I’m”) Troy McClure is the best Simpsons side character, so naturally this one – the only episode based around him – is absolutely priceless, from chimpan-A to chimpan-Z.
12. The Springfield Files (S8)
Whether you are an X-Files fan or not, this meeting of Homer and Mulder and Scully is a pitch-perfect half-hour of comedy nonsense. But isn’t that the real truth? The answer is no.
11. The Last Temptation of Homer (S5)
Homer’s loyalty to Marge is tested when his new coworker at the plant seems perfect for him. A fair-handed look at temptation and a great example of how dedicated to Marge Homer really is.

I love this! Totally agree with all of them 😂
What do you think of the newer episodes?
My blog (blogs.tapped-out.co.uk) is dedicated to Simpsons and TSTO

Thanks! I still watch and enjoy it most of the time. Definitely not as good as its heyday, of course, but I’ll still find myself chuckling a few times per episode. How about you?
Great site! Just followed. 🙂

I agree that some HD/recent episodes aren’t as good but it is hard to stop watching a family you have grown to love. I still watch, get excited about and like (some) recent episodes.
Thanks for following the blog BTW. Because it is self hosted the WP reader doesn’t work like it does for most blogs but you can still comment etc by going on the browser

Exactly. I will always love the Simpsons family. Homer, to me, has got to be the greatest TV comedy character ever.
Gotcha, thanks for the heads-up!

Out of interest: Do you play TSTO? The Simpsons Tapped Out.
If so, how long have you been playing?
If not, you should! You build your own Springfield and their are constant events which release fun limited time items that can be seen in the show. Super fun!

I’m ashamed to say I don’t. But you’re right I really should!
Loved Simpsons Hit and Run back in the day though!
