Well, do we agree?
You’ve probably guessed it by now, but we are absolutely MASSIVE fans of The Simpsons in JOE Towers and gratefully lap up any chance we get to reference the greatest show of all time.
If they’re not already, Simpsons fans on Twitter should be following @SimpsonsQOTD, which is run by Charlie Southern from Liverpool, has amassed over 288,000 followers and provides nostalgic reminders of what made the show so great (from Seasons 1-11 at least) on a daily basis.
Having selected his favourite 20 episodes not so long ago, Charlie last night posted his top ten Simpsons moments on Twitter and considering that this man obsesses over the show like few others, we imagine the selection process must have been particularly tough, if hugely enjoyable at the same time.

Charlie has provided a full explanation for the rationale behind his choices on his blog and we’ve tried to include video footage (where possible) of Charlie’s favourite moments so you can get a better idea of why he chose them and then decide whether you agree with them or not.
Lisa The Vegetarian – Meat & You
22 Short Films About Springfield – Aurora Borealis

Last Exit To Springfield – DENTAL PLAN!
Homer At The Bat – Sideburns
Cape Feare – Hello Mr. Thompson
Homer Badman – Rock Bottom
No doubt there are a few moments that you, dear reader, might deem worthy of a top ten list and who knows, if we get enough suggestions, we might compile a list of our own Simpsons moments as selected by JOE readers; a perfectly cromulent list that would embiggen us all.
