How can you hate Ralph? The character is brilliant.

I don't watch the Simpsons anymore, but in the early seasons, Ralph was great. Completely different from nerd Martin, push-over Milhouse, bully Nelson and that German exchange student.

Oh yeah, she sucks. You know semi-regular Simpsons characters suck if you don't even know their names.

Lisa used to serve her purpose, she was the smart kid in an otherwise dumb household... now... she is just as dumb as everybody else. I turned it on a few weeks ago, and she was driving an RV for some dumb reason I would assume... Go back to reading, getting picked on, and not being cool.... but Dr. Nick always saves the show

almost every Lisa centric episode has stunk too

ESPECIALLY the Evita one. She's become an elitist annoyance, and she used to be... well that's already been covered. Shame really.
Lisa. hands down. There is the reason it was coined "A Lisa episode"
I understand why though. The writers typically use Lisa episodes as a direct attempt at morality or lesson teaching: TMYK. And I commend them for using a show that is many times a satire or commentary, and instead using it for a lesson type thing, but that doesn't stop me from generally hating the episodes.
one exception (maybe more, but one off the top of my head). The episode where homer became smarter after the crayon was removed from his brain was brilliant. Unbelievably brilliant. His letter to Lisa at the end before he stuffed the crayon back up his nose actually choked me up a bit. Not only the best (and only good) Lisa episode ever made, but one of the best episodes of the series.
and a later episode to boot. go figure.

Actually, they've all had some good episodes, and Lisa is supposed to get on your nerves. Back in the day at least. But Marge does so the most when the new writers try and make her funny. I hate it. They always try to find something bizarre and wild for Marge to yell and shock people, but I just cringe. Lois is beginning to do the same even on Family Guy. I like it better when those characters add a dose of rational thought to the show. That just doesn't happen with today's simpsons though.

well when I said 'almost' the only good one I was thinking of was the vegetarian episode

Lindsey Nagel, can't stand her. Lisa's Sub was a great Lisa episode, with Dustin Hoffman. That was way back in season 2 or 3.

All of Lisa's episodes from season 9 and below are my absolute favorites. The way she'd interact with Homer was always charming and funny. Her character's become stale though, and now she just fights with Homer and it's not endearing at all.Ash Housewares said:
Ralph is definitely my least favorite. He was awesome in his prime with "Me fail english? That's umpossible," but then the writers saw his appeal and just milked him to death. Now he just says stupid things in every episode and they're not funny.

I like Lisa episodes too. Well, old ones. I dunno, maybe new ones too, it's been a long time since I've bothered watching new Simpsons episodes.

There were some decent Lisa based episodes. Like the Mensa one etc. Bleeding Gums though... Borefest.

It's a toss up. My least favorite characters right now are: Homer, Lisa, and Comic Book Guy over the last several seasons.
The reason is that each of them has increasingly become a mindless cheap shot at the stereotype they represent and are boring. You always know just what they're going to do, say, and be used for when they're on screen. Granted, CBG was always the more shallow of stereotypes of for geek fanboys. But still run into the ground.
Though most of the characters by now are pretty stale for me, thanks to the writing.

I'm really surprised people didn't jump on my Bleeding Gums Murphy bandwagon. That episode sucked. Hard.
