Last Exit to Springfield is your winner

[stip]

Everyone knows the drill. Single elimination season 1-10 episode tournament.

Bracket can be found here

Seeding, including first round byes, were completely random.

Matches will stay open for two days.

I will try and post episode summaries, time allowing. But anyone able to help with that, with clips, etc. when I can't get to it would be greatly appreciated.

Lets do this!

Round 1 starts 5/26

this came at the expense of a tom waits super tournament. there is no such thing as victimless fun

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I feel like voting for TV episodes is going to be much more difficult than songs.

you're god damned right it is

The "Behind The Laughter" episode (Season 11) deserves a spot here. Put it in a play-in round.

[doug rr]

place your bets on which episode is going to be the country feedback...

Listen, there are a handful of episodes in season 11 and 12 that are fantastic. But we have to draw a line somewhere, and if we're being honest with ourselves none of the episodes after season 10 belong in the later rounds of this thing, so fuck 'em.

I think it's golden all the way through season 14. Seasons 15 and 16 are a bit more mixed, but there are still plenty of episodes I love. 17 is where it starts getting sketchy.

I bet you're one of those assholes that thought "tap-a tap-a tap-a" and tomacco was comedy gold.

Those are both good episodes, you elitist prick.

Agreed. Though I think the Simpsons golden age ended after the 12th season. And, seasons 3-9 were the prime years.

it does taste like grandma

[Norah]

You guys are throwing around terms like "golden age" way too loosely.
