Do you mean good for the characters or good for the show?

GOOD: Ned and that Christian singer (I forgot her name)

BAD: Ned and Edna

[Financial Panther]

Good: Death of Maude. It's opened new doors for Ned.

Bad: Octuplets. Just totally ruined Apu.

[The Truth In Yellow]

GOOD: Edna and Skinner

BAD: Edna and Ned

Oh man do I agree. I mean, opposites do attract, but just don't last. They are basically polar opposites (Edna & Ned.) And it's completely out of character for both of them. I honestly think the Simpson's legacy is too important to be subject to voting. While watching the episode where they end up staying together, the whole time I was waiting (and hoping) for them to fall apart. Much to my dismay, such wasn't the case. I was genuinely surprised, and not in a good way. It's just not realistic. Naturally such a reason wouldn't hold water in just any cartoon, but we know the Simpsons is an exception. (If not the only one.)

Good: Death of Maude. It's opened new doors for Ned..

Unfortunetely, that door had a tiger waiting for him inside.

[Lionheart]

I'm going to say that Edna and Ned is good...at least at the moment. My hope is that she makes him more accepting and less super fundie conservative Christian.

Good: Lisa becoming a vegetarian

[iambobdole1]

Bad: Octuplets. Just totally ruined Apu.

I'm going to play devil's advocate here, and disagree. While I enjoyed bachelor Apu, I think having kids helped him grow as a character. The put-upon dad version of Apu is at least as funny, plus the kids open up different storylines for him. Not saying they're all gold or anything, but they make for some variety.

[Diversity Pumpkin]

And even so, saying that Apu's kids ruined him only applies when his kids are in the scene. Apu by himself in the store, is still... Apu by himself in the store, just like in the classic era. Of course the writing sucks now blah blah blah, but you get what I mean.

[cinco]

Do you mean good for the characters or good for the show?

Initially... good for the characters, but I notice some people interpret it as good for the show.
Well, whatever the thread keeps rolling.

[Rens11]

Good: Drunk Barney

Bad: Sober Barney

Skinner not really being Skinner was atrocious.

[Ernie]

Skinner not really being Skinner was atrocious.

That episode (I forgot the name), It also kind of ran into the episode "Boy meets curl". if you've seen the episode, you'd know how things start making no sense when looking back at the older episodes.

The Principal and the Pauper

I personally liked that Boy Meets Curl retconned it.

[Financial Panther]

How did Boy Meets Curl retcon it? I don't remember...

Yeah, somebody enlighten us as I haven't seen that episode either.

Agnes tells she was pregnant of Seymour in this episode.

[cinco]

Agnes tells she was pregnant of Seymour in this episode.

And wasn't it the original Seymour? I mean... the one we saw in The Principal and The Pauper?

[Blobulle]

No, she was talking of the "wrong" Seymour, aka Armin something.

[cinco]

...Tamzarian.

Although I want to forget that name, I just do not succeed in doing just that.

[Financial Panther]

I have no problem thinking that Skinner is really Armin Tamzarian. The episode never really bothered me anyway. So his nme isn't Seymour Skinner. Big deal.

[J Dog]

Bad Choice: Bumblebee Man is a British actor.
Good Choice: Bumblebee Man's real life problems are as over-the-top as the ones he deals with in his sitcom.

[Lionheart]

And wasn't it the original Seymour? I mean... the one we saw in The Principal and The Pauper?

Well there was actually a flashback of Agnes doing a pole vault, and it showed Skinner/Armin in utero. He kicked a little bit while she was in the air and it somehow screwed up her whole routine. He kind of made a mumble too (because you know, they wanted to be as scientific and realistic as possible ) and it was obviously Skinner/Armin/Harry Shearer's voice.

EDIT:

[Insecthero]

Petty, vindictive old hag. She's always good for a laugh!
