LADIES PINCH, WHORES USE ROUGE: The REAL Simpsons Season 2 Poll

Another similar gag in the lemon tree one: "I thought you could read lips?" "I assumed I could!"

And the ''spray cans as jetpacks'' logic!

Crammed in "Bart the Daredevil" and "Treehouse of Horror" last night. The latter had more laughs than I remember - the Raven bit in particular is legitimately cute and funny, with Castellaneta's and Jones's deliveries of the poem getting increasingly disconnected from each other. Could do without the framing stuff and the idea that Homer is actually scared to death by these cute little fanfics (though Marge's intro is worth a couple chuckles).

"Bart the Daredevil" is a solid episode front to back. I'd rank it alongside "8th Commandment." Favorite gag: "Don't miss it unless you're DEEEEAD or in JAIIIL, and if you're in jail, break OUUUUT." Also great how the daredevil just flagrantly encourages everything. I'd also totally forgotten Homer's logic in getting on the skateboard in the first place, which is exactly the kind of big-hearted, underthought thing that makes him work as a character: he's not just a temperamental moron, he's a temperamental moron trying to be a good father and deliver actually worthwhile life lessons.

Still down to "Lisa's Substitute" and "Blood Feud." I think the former is going to do pretty well regardless so I'm going to throw another one in for "Blood Feud."

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

surprised Principal Charming got no votes.

Bart Gets an F, too. If nothing else I'd figure someone would vote for SNOW DAY, THE FUNNEST DAY IN THE HISTORY OF SPRINGFIELD!

Season 3 is up now: WE'RE SENDING OUR LOVE DOWN THE WELL: The Simpsons Season 3 Poll

Might've thrown my vote to "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" instead of "Lisa's Substitute" had I known the latter would get so few votes. But the same could possibly be said for everything that received zero votes, with the exception of "Dancin Homer'" which I'd argue is the only real dud in this bunch.

only 2 for 3 men and a comic gtfo

Shit I forgot to vote after all that! hahaha. I would ave voted for "Blowfish" I think, but it was hard to decide.

Suprsed at the no love for Simpson and Delilah tho! The whole weird sub-story with the Carl character! The strange homosexual subtext. HE KISSES HOMER.

yeah Bart Gets An F is incredible no question.

Not one person mentioned "Old Money" in this thread, which is a shame. Its an important epiode, because its where Grandpa comes into all that money and uses it to have the nursing home upgraded from the a shithole to the decent place it goes on to be from then on. And it was so sad!

Damn, now I wish I HAD voted for Bart Gets an F, because I just remembered a) the permanent contribution to my vocabulary of "amoria phlebitis" and b) my second-favorite Martin line: "Who would have thought that pushing a boy into the girls' lavatory could be such a thrill? The screams! The humiliation! The fact that it wasn't me!"

Voted Blowfish but am fine with this result. Delilah would have been my second choice. So many good episodes but only one single vote to share amongst them!

"It looks like Bullwinkle got a taste of his own medicine!" *laughs*

*laughs* "He sure did, Bill!"

"Did what I said make sense?"

"No, not really Bill!"

"Now I know how the Pilgrims felt" *laughs*

"What are you talking about, Bill?"

"Hello, my name is Mr. Burns. I believe you have a letter for me."

"Okay, Mr. Burns. What's your first name?

"I...don't know."

The delivery on the last line is sooo good.

Totally. The "great plan, Bart" afterwards a nice victory lap
