Fun scary
The past 3-maybe-5 seasons have all had: At least one episode that is nauseatingly terrible, at least one genuinely heartwarming without being overly maudlin episode, at least one truly amazing and hilarious episode, and the rest are sort of okay

What are some examples of "amazing and hilarious" episodes? Not doubting you I'm just curious.

"Halloween of Horror" (So far the only episode in it's massive run where the family just celebrates halloween like normal so don't get it confused with Treehouse episodes) has a ton of decent gags, a good emotional core and a music number that will stay with you in a good way

Meanwhile "Much Apu About Something" is full of easy jokes and references, but they are delivered so tactfully that you don't notice

And "A Totally Fun Thing That Bart Will Never Do Again" might be on the long side of my 3-5 season estimate but I'd regret not recommending it. The episode goes in a lot of weird and bold directions but they make sense as a natural progression of the story

If you feel like skipping everything else, I won't blame ya :v:
