Judas Rocking Priest, Bob read my question and answered it! And gave one hell of an answer. As for what I think are bad Simpsons episodes, I'd say they're the ones with unsubtle political commentary, where they lecture us (the viewers) instead of make jokes, but the worst of that bunch, to me, is G.I.D'oh. Homer joins the U.S. Army, and it's one big middle finger in their direction. It said top to bottom, officers to enlisted, everyone in it sucks. To top it off, the air date was 11/12/2006, one day AFTER Veteran's Day. When South Park and fucking Family Guy show more respect, make fun of terrorists, and tell better jokes, something's very wrong.
Oh, another sucky one was where Bart's Little League team makes it to some championship game, he suddenly turns into a spaz, they lose the game, and the whole town gives him hell for it. So much so, he almost commits suicide.

I wish my childhood video rental place had those anime movies... then again we never even had a Blockbuster. Most people would probably pick any given Ghibli work for their favorite anime movie but it's cool to know your first ones were some of the other more unique 80s movies.
As a '90's kid, my Anime Starter set was whatever I could find on TV (in my case, Dragon Ball Z and Gundam Wing), movies I happened to find on Premium cable, and whatever my Asian friends recommended.

I don't know the Doomsday Clock (Basically Watchmen x DC Universe crossover) has been interesting so far. But I am weary of how all of it will end.
You gotta admire the balls on DC to go through with it, and Geoff Johns to write it, at the risk of incurring the wrath of Alan Moore.
