Really? That gets me happy
There was a little Spanish flea....
What a crazy juxtaposition!
Agreed. Fantastic episode and a good season really.
The resent few episodes, there been good episodes in the sense its a major improvement, but its still miles away from been good. Most of the plots are from older Simpsons episodes, with the overall episode cramped with so many ideas and stolen plots seem tacky and packed into the episode just for the heck of it and to quell people going "lol old Simpsons are awesome". Plot points seemed like they where a step backwards when trying to do many of these issues as they have no place in what Simpsons have become, and the issues are not explored as much as the original episodes they appeared in. Take last weeks Moe Suside episode. It felt like the suside issue was cramped into the whole episode and didn't feel like it worked with the moe they have created, plus the issue was looked at previously, and it doesn't seem like it was solved this time, it just felt like it was an issue which was introduced then patched up as lazy.

From the Wiki:
Public Enemy's song, 911 Is A Joke plays when Stan has the clock necklace on and dances with his one rocket boot. Oddly enough, this is an unusually liberal song for a conservative like Stan to be listening to considering it mocks the cliches of the Reagan Era.
The episode also has Been There, Done That by Dr. Dre in it too when Stan is trying to park his car in another great scene. In case that makes any juxtaposition.
It's also a very full episode with 5 separate plot points. An A, B, C, D and E plot. That's just craaaaaayzeeee!!!! American Dad! is always full of tightly packed plots. It's one of the things that makes it superior to Family Guy. (Minus Brian and Stewie episodes which are always family-light and plot-heavy.)
Anyways, back to Simpsons. I really enjoyed 500 Keys. I don't know why. I know it had flaws, but I enjoyed it a lot. I'm going to use that list to watch some of the more recent better episodes.

I'd throw in Million Dollar Maybe in there from season 21. Sure it has stuff like the Funtendo Zii in it, but it's actually a really solid Homer/Marge ep, touching on a lot of the qualities that made Homer a lovable oaf to begin with. It's like jerkass Homer was murdered for this one episode and they remembered he was a caring father and loving husband. It even has an ending I'd pin as pretty close to
Of course it's not perfect by any means, but I'm a little shocked at the inclusions in the "good eps" list while missing this one.
Hell, even GAF received it well on its initial airing.
Why isn't "Marge Gamer" on the avoid list? Such tripe. It's what drove me to quit The Simpsons. Then when I checked back in I saw "That 90's Show". FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK. I didn't think it could get any worse than Marge Gamer. Taking the Back to the Future phonecall joke and adding grunge is so witty. It disgusted me as a fan of both The Simpsons and Nirvana.
Done and done.

Dear Mrs Simpson, while we were rescuing your husband a lumber yard burned down.
BUT HOW DID HE DIAL THE PHONE!?
Anyone else love Ned's dad:
Oh, man! Ned spelled ink all over my poems. He's a real flat tire, I mean a cube, man. He's putting us on the train to Squaresville, Mona!
For the last time Bart, yes!
I get so much entertainment out of just watching that animation. Doesn't even matter if it's funny or not.

hmm. Convenient.
I love how Homer imagines himself growing old and becoming some kind of automata vending machine dispenser. Its so hilariously cute and dumb.

and I mean done.
I adore Summer of 4 Ft. 2. It may well be my favorite episode of the series.
So many great Milhouse moments.
"Up yours, Krabappel."
The sprinkler impressions.
Petting the scorpion. "Nice doggy!"
"Oh boy, a carnival! <completely oblivious to Lisa being absolutely livid & putting the fear of death in Bart>
Getting caught in the spit crossfire on the Tilt-A-Whirl.
The entire "you got the dud" exchange involving him in the Mystery Date game. "Stand up for yourself, Poindexter."
"Right, you go over and wow them, I'll hide in the shrubs!" "They must have seen you."
And that's not even touching on Homer blowing up the dishwasher with fireworks, buying enemas and panty shields, the phenomenal Lisa storyline as she strives to reinvent herself, Ned's nametags for everything ("Fill me." "With what, Ned" "With Water" "Well, duh."), that one kid with the French parents referencing Bastille Day and baguettes and a decent guest star gig from Christina Ricci.
Not to mention it gave us this...
SNAP - the summer of 4ft2 has been my favourite for as long as I can remember - pretty much every scene and every joke is excellent.

Anyone ever try this?
Ok, so I was just talking to my brother a few days ago about the simpsons, and I mentioned Ned's dad, and he then mentioned the break dancing ape during the Dr Zaius rap.
And finally, I just watched the good morning burger commercial like 15 minutes ago.
This page in particular scares me kinda.

Farmer Billy: Well if you open up one of these here packages and find a golden ticket, you get a tour of Farmer Billy's Bacon Factory.
Announcer: Warning: Bacon factory may explode!
I laughed for days.
