12 Great Simpsons Episodes You'll Never Own (Thanks To Fox)

12. The Bob Next Door

Not having the complete set of Sideshow Bob episodes? That in itself is a crime on the level of one of Bob's very own plots!

Yet that is now the case. The Bob Next Door was a particularly inspired episode from Season 21, in which Bob goes the Face/Off route (that's the Travolta/Cage face swap flick, for those who have forgotten) and puts on a new face - Bart's new neighbor's! After fooling the Simpson family as to his identity, he kidnaps Bart and takes him to the Five Corners - the spot where five states meet - to kill him "legally" by firing a gun in one state, and have the bullet pass through others before hitting his intended victim.

Sure, his plan isn't foolproof - the logic behind his multi-state murder simply isn't sound - but it's an extremely fun episode, that, sadly, fans will never have a chance to own.
