For me it's:

Mitchell
The Pumaman
Space Mutiny
Time Chasers
Invasion of the Neptune Men
Horror at Party Beach
Deathstalker and the Warriors from Hell

the list goes on of course, but those are the ones I keep watching

My comfort episodes are probably any of the juvenile delinquent episodes. I just love those. Girls Town might be my favorite. The Girl from Lover's Lane is also up there.

How about some comfort shorts? Last Clear Chance is top go-to for me. I've seen that one at least 10,000 times. The Home Economics Story is a good one, and Young Man's Fancy always gets me squishy.

Once Upon A Honeymoon is my go-to short, followed by Is This Love?, Body Care and Grooming, Design For Dreaming, the one that’s about bread, and the Hired! shorts.

I’m so glad they’re going to do shorts again as part of season 13. :3: I was always a little sad we didn’t get that many during the time Bill Corbett was Crow, but he’s gotten to do at least one short as Crow alongside Joel (during the kickstarter, I think), and it warms my heart to know Joel really likes his Crow voice.

My favorite shorts are Truck Farming and either of the Union Pacific shorts (Last Clear Chance and Days of our Years)

i've been binge-watching a bunch of season 3-4 stuff because i found these VHS rips on youtube and the internet archive with the original '90s ads on them (really stunning confluence of two things i really like, i guess), and i'm actually really surprised i had gone this long without seeing Pod People and Master Ninja. really great stuff to zone out and get stoned to. y'all got any suggestions for classic/underrated Joel-era episodes that aren't all monster movies? i've been digging the delinquent-youth beatnik stuff a lot more than the guy in a rubber suit stuff.

These are all solid. I'd watch Operation Double 007 by itself, it's just goofy fun.

I think about The Truck Farmers often. "A pre-teen is put to work. Her beauty will soon fade." And of course, the double-header of depressing train-related shorts Last Clear Chance and Days of Our Years. "Why don't they look, Ralph? Tell me, why don't they look?"

I Accuse My Parents is one of my all-time favorite episodes, that end sketch makes me smile even now. It's a Mike-era episode so maybe not quite what you're looking for, but Radar Secret Service gets quoted in our house all the time.

It's a little rubber-suit-ish, but I'm a big fan of First Spaceship on Venus, too. Something about the international cast or how bizarre some of the special effects are, I just love it.

That ending speech from the copper had strong 'I'm no longer arguing, if we disagree on road safety I'm straight up killing you' energy.
