Ned angry at Homer in The Simpsons
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Although the Golden Age of The Simpsons ended decades ago, fans still rewatch their favorite episodes over and over again. While everyone has their own personal favorites, some episodes are simply better-suited to multiple rewatches. They never lose their appeal, and they can even become more enjoyable after a few watches. These episodes usually highlight something that the show does incredibly well.
The Simpsons isn't afraid to get emotional at times, but the real brilliance of the show is that it can deliver heartbreaking episodes while still remaining as hilarious as ever. The episode's title is a play on Dr. Strangelove, but "$pringfield" takes inspiration from another Stanley Kubrick film, as Mr. Burns loses all touch with reality in a sanitized bedroom reminiscent of the ending of 2001: A Space Odyssey. The moment that he tries to force Smithers into the Spruce Moose is just one of countless great jokes in "$pringfield" that make the episode so enjoyable to rewatch.
7 "Homer At The Bat" Season 3, Episode 16. Close The Simpsons has a long-standing tradition of great guest stars playing themselves. The show has hosted Stephen Hawking, Thomas Pynchon, and three Beatles, and "Homer at the Bat" includes a total of nine MLB stars. When Mr. Burns makes a bet on his company's upcoming softball game against a rival's nuclear power plant, he stacks the roster with players including Wade Boggs and Jose Canseco.
The Simpsons has mined a lot of comedy out of the zany inhabitants of Springfield, and this episode gives the writers the freedom to concoct bizarre situations that have nothing to do with the Simpson family. The Simpsons is often a show that chews up and regurgitates pop culture in interesting ways. "Bart the Murderer" has many of the hallmarks of classic gangster movies, but it's surprisingly original and compelling. The emotional core of the story is about Bart's hubris, and the way he learns his lesson. The hilarious gangster parody and the farcical court case are just the icing on the cake.
3 "Treehouse Of Horror V" Season 6, Episode 6. Close The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror episodes are the show's greatest tradition. Each season brings a new anthology episode of three or four spooky tales for Halloween, usually referencing popular horror or sci-fi stories. "Treehouse of Horror V" is arguably the best of the bunch, and it can be rewatched every October without losing any of its charm.
