There have been over five-hundred episodes of The Simpsons, so it's really only natural that some episodes don't necessarily get the praise they deserve. While people tend to be gushing about the same old episodes and claim the show went downhill after season five, or nine, or eleven (depending on who you talk to), there are plenty of episodes that are just as good, but nowhere near as recognised. Not just from modern times, but from throughout the show's history. Yes, we all love Mr. Plow and the monorail episode and can sing the associated songs, but there's more to the show than a couple of catchy lines and jingles. The problem is, most people fail to understand that with a show with the longevity of The Simpsons, there are naturally going to be ups and downs, good seasons and bad ones - but that there will always be some stellar episodes regardless of the year. And that not every episode needs to have that joke you can repeat perfectly at the office Monday morning. The early years are not immune to this. Despite the fact that many fans claim they haven't watched since season XX (insert the number of your choice here, dear readers), and that they only love the early years of The Simpsons, how much love do you see the first two seasons of the show really getting? Those have almost become lost seasons, despite the fact that they really got the ball rolling, and allowed the show to become one of the most entertaining half-hours in television history. So lets take a look at the ten most overlooked episodes in the series' long and storied history!
