Love this thread.
I've pegged the good (and by good I mean amazing) years of Simpsons from about season 3 to season 8, with season 9 being the last of the epic episodes that would appear periodically ("The Cartridge family" - when Homer gets a gun, and "The joy of sect" - when Homer joins the Movementarians cult, come to mind).
I'll admit I stopped watching with regularity about 10 years ago, and altogether about 5 years ago as I couldn't handle watching the degradation of what was the best show on TV.
The Monorail epi was an absolute classic. But my favourite episode has to be "Last exit to Springfield" season 4, the infamous "Lisa needs braces" episode.
There is no filler in the entire episode. Every single scene advances the plot while providing hilarity.
Just one example of the random humour that was done so brilliantly.
Just noticed you beat me to the punch Bigtime. Sorry, didn't notice your post before. Glad to see others share my sentiment.
