King Size Homer vs. Deep Space Homer


Welcome everyone to the BEST SIMPSON'S EPISODE EVER TOURNAMENT! PRESENTED BY CURRENT EVENTS!

As the first topic in this idea I've had for awhile, here is the basic groundwork.

INTRODUCTION

I looked at the Top 24 episodes of Simpsons ever, as based on user star ratings on IMDB. The list is from 2015, but I doubt anything in 2015 and beyond would belong on this list. This list has a nice little two sentence explanation of the episode if you do not have episode names memorized. In each topic I will also explain each episode that we are voting on.

THE LIST - http://www.imdb.com/list/ls076621282/

Using Challong, I've created a tournament involving the Top 24 episodes of all time!

THE BRACKET - http://challonge.com/1pqf62l9

The 1-8 seeds have a bye in the first round, since that seems appropriate. Every day (or maybe twice a day depending on how 1-sided a vote gets) we will put up a new poll and see which episode out of the two is considered better. Winner moves on, loser is dropped. There will be a third place vote as well.

Let's get to it!

THE COMBATANTS!

KING SIZE HOMER - Determined to avoid a work exercise program, Homer intentionally gains weight in order to qualify for disability and work from home. However, he soon realizes that being morbidly obese comes with its own problems.

vs.

DEEP SPACE HOMER - In an effort to increase the dismal television ratings for their space launches, NASA decides to send an ordinary man into space, and Homer is chosen for the task.

This is the first one where it really isn't even a hard decision, at least for me.

Deep Space Homer is an absolute classic, filled with amazing quotes and sequences. I enjoyed King Size Homer, but it just isn't near the classic of Deep Space.

King Size Homer. More memorable. Although the "In Rod we trust" part was hilarious.


Homer floating in space with the ants >>>>>> anything in King Size Homer!

This. I can remember two scenes in king size and both set up jokes the entire time.

Meanwhile I can remember nearly all of deep space, jokes and all.

But that wasn't part of either episode.

The potato-chip scene alone makes "Deep Space Homer" the obvious choice.

For whatever reason, this line above all other Simpsons quotes will put a smile on my face until the day I die, no matter how many times it's replayed and no matter the context of my daily life. So gotta go with King Size Homer.

If Homer's Barbershop Quartet doesn't finish in the top 5, I'll know this board has shitty taste in Simpsons episodes.


It's not even in the bracket, dude...
