South Park: Goth Kids 3: Dawn of the Posers (2013)
Near the top of the Top 10, for sure
I know SP has been hit-or-miss over the years, but this episode shows you the highs this show can reach. To prevent spoilers, I'll only say that this episode manages to cram in all the goth references many of us experienced first hand: the Village Inn (which all Goths, including my former self, lived at during the 80's), Edgar Allen Poe, Goths, Vamps, and Emos....hilarious! It even spawned a catch phrase (No way!) that everyone in my house chants endlessly.
Along with Margaritaville, The Ungroundable, Something Wall-Mart This Way Comes, Tsst, Cartman Joins Nambla, Butters' Bottom B**ch, Christian Rock Hard, Trapped in the Closed, and Raisins (with a Fishsticks at a tie), this is easily Top 10. Love them!
American Dad!: American Fung (2015)
Worst. Episode. Ever. (few minimal spoilers)
This beat "Blood Crieth Unto Heaven" as the worst AD episode ever. I don't want to give too many specifics because I don't want to spoil it (if that's possible, as this is a terrible, horrendous, pointless, stupid episode). I couldn't figure out if the endless "Fung Wah" references were a joke I was supposed to be in on, or if they were building up to a great punchline (the answer: no). Half way through I started thinking MacFarlane finally lost it and the series was now doomed. To state my total hatred for this without spoiling: 1. There was no plot, seriously. Fung Wah "buys" AD. Huh? So now the characters are in on being cartoons? Is that it? 2. Francine uncharacteristically reacts to Stan's typical stupidity, something she deals with in nearly every episode, but somehow this repeated stupidity makes her react in the manner which she does? 3. Roger's side story was NO story, but rather time filler about his closet. That's it. The whole thing meandered aimlessly. I kept imagining the table read where the actors were likely scratching their heads trying to figure out what the point was to all of this, then their reaction when they realized there was no point. I'm fearful this is a glimpse into the end.
