There are many reasons why people think The Simpsons is one of the best shows of all time. Among other things, this animated classic mastered the holiday special—from its debut to its long-running "Treehouse of Horror" series .
Air travel hilariously isn't what it used to be, making Maggie's journey to Springfield pretty wild. Meanwhile, Lisa's daughter Zia is so addicted to technology that her storyline functions as an excellent analogy to our current obsession with screens. Bart and Lisa both struggle with parenting, which leads to some heartfelt moments. This episode proves how, even into its 20s, the Simpsons could still compellingly display family dysfunction.
After agreeing to go to a live Krusty the Clown show, Lisa is forced to stop being so polite and completely humiliates Ralph on national television. Refreshingly, this Valentine's Day episode is about acceptance of rejection and the positivity in moving on without resentment. It also does a good job of making Ralph more than just the absurdly clueless kid in the back of the classroom.
"Time and Punishment" sends Homer back in time through a particularly bad toaster. His attempts to get home prove more complicated and amusingly exasperating than expected. "Nightmare Cafeteria" turns Principal Skinner and all the teachers into cannibals, and they collectively do a terrible job of keeping this a secret. The bit where Groundskeeper Willy proves totally inept at saving people never gets old, helping this go down as one of the best Treehouse of Horror episodes.
