Is Supernatural any good? I never watched it because it came across like Charmed in the ads. My son would agree with Sozins Comet. And I can't really comment on the TMNT or Drake & Josh but all the other episodes are great - Futurama was another that just missed my top 10
I have to admit my interest was piqued when I saw a review of some episodes and one was about this whole universe being a simulation. I'll have to see what streaming platform its on in Australia
Interesting Simpsons choice. I just saw "Lisa The Vegetarian" the other day and realized how much I love that episode.

"But, where is righteousness, noble Paladin? Where is your cause? You remember, there's always a dragon loose, somewhere."
I do like Time Enough at Last. Twilight Zone really sucked after the reboot - I wish they would go back to the classic days
I had never heard of Forever or Have Gun Will Travel - are they old?
Have Gun - Will Travel is very old, late 50s, early 60s. Only ran in black & white, though colorized episodes exist. Some of the people who got their starts on this show went on to be very big names in Hollywood.
Forever is from 2014. It was a great show, essentially combined the Sherlock craze from that time with NYC crime drama and threw in the "mysterious immortal" trope. Rated great, had great stars... and ABC killed it suddenly. Didn't even tell the cast, who had been told to report for film season 2.
Did it end on an unfinished arc? or was it more monster of the week style? (Forever)
It didn't really have an unfinished arc, per se. It turned out that there was at least one other immortal, and he essentially turned into the main character's unrelenting stalker/ fan boy. The main plot was pretty much procedural crime drama, but it was done very well.
Good list.
I'd have gone with "Potato" from season 2.
I'd also throw either "Arcade" or "Movie Star" from News Radio on there, and pick one of many from Seinfeld.
i almost put 'The Bet' from Seinfeld
Never got why that one was popular. It's alright. The Chinese Restaurant would be my pick. (and from the Simpsons, A Fish Called Selma)
Soup Nazi is iconic as well. as is Pez Dispenser. South Park as well had some great episodes in the day . top 10's are hard ;)
The Sealab episode with that overdone joke? That's your choice?
Hilarious series, but THAT episode?
There's only one way to fix this.
I hereby declare Martian Law.
I must have been really high watching that episode because it totally cracked me up
God, that show fell off so hard after the death of Harry Goz, voice of Captain Hazel Murphy.
Adult Swim shows can be very hit and miss. I loved Brak Show, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Harvey Birdman and even the non animated Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell, but of late some of the series have been very up and down.
It's a classic "The Doctor is IN!!!"
I realise that Best of Both Worlds is a double episode
