The Simpsons: 10 Best Sideshow Bob Episodes

5. Krusty Gets Busted

Sideshow Bob - Die Bart Die
Fox

When Krusty is imprisoned after being witnessed robbing the Kwik-E-Mart, Bart determines to get his hero off the hook – and discovers the evil plot of none other than Krusty’s show business partner…

And here it is. Sideshow Bob’s first foray into crime and the reason why he hates Bart so much. While The Simpsons was still finding its feet in the other episodes that make up the show's first season, Krusty Gets Busted is generally seen as being just as good as later years, as well as being an important episode in the show’s history.

For one, we get the original joke about the character that has become lost in time - that someone as kooky-looking as Sideshow Bob would have a voice as cultured as Kelsey Grammer's.
