I do not agree that HOMR is better and more touching than Flowers for Algernon

or even that it is obviously inspired by it. It’s not that good, and stands out only because most of that season is bad.

Surprised to see Secrets of a Successful Marriage at #23, when I’ve seen that called one of the worst episodes of the classic era on numerous occasions.

“Homer Badman” is awfully low.

At this point I haven’t seen most of the series, but they rate the somewhat later episodes higher than I would, even in the case of episodes I like. “The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show” at # 4? But I guess to make a “Top 100” list make sense you’d need someone who likes the entire series.

At some point I’ll go back and watch some of the more acclaimed later episodes.
