how does Snake don't make it into the top 10 smh

'Oh no, that's L'il Bandit! And she's in trouble!' - Snake
"You're ruining it for the rest of us!" - other prisoner

'Goodbye student loan payments!'

Snake wearing a Middlebury College shirt is one of their best jokes ever.

OK, this made my day.

For some reason I thought Otto the bus driver would top every list, but no.

What about one-off characters?

Otto is also a treasure.

In retrospect, I should have added Prof. Frink.

Hank Scorpio is clearly the best one-off, and from the single best Simpsons ep ever.
[feel like I've posted a simpsons top 10 ep list no-Halloween ones previously]

Wait. Stop everything. Mr. Sparkle doesn't count as a character, does he?

I should have left Ralph of the list and replaced him with Snake and put Groundskeeper Willie as the honorable mention.

Top ten episodes? You know, I'm gonna look through a list real quick and see if I come come up with ten favorites. I imagine most will be from seasons 6 and 7. Let's see...

Never mind. I don't even know where to begin.

A rare interview with John Swartzwelder for anyone who may have missed it. For those who don't know, he was a writer for the first 15 seasons and the most prolific with 59 episodes to his name.

Ralph's best line: Mrs. Krabappel and Principal Skinner were in the closet making babies, and I saw one of the babies, and the baby looked at me.

what's a diorama?

We're a totem pole...

This Simpsons talk made me go back into my IG stories archive to when I did a Top 10 episode list, here it is:

1- Homer the Heretic (Season 4)
2- Bart Sells his Soul (S7)
3- Homer's Enemy (S8)
4- Lemon of Troy (S6)
5- Lisa's First Word (S4)
6- King-Size Homer (S7)
7- Summer of 4 Ft. 2 (S7)
8- Homer the Great (S6)
9- Bart the General (S1)
10- The City of New York vs Homer Simpson (S9)

When I was attempting to make a list of episodes, "Bart Sells His Soul" and "Lemon of Troy" were the first ones that came to mind. If you listen to the crazy guy rambling when Bart's in the city, at one point he goes, "Haaaave you everrrr read That Old Curiosity Shop?!"
