"Tourist Attraction" has moved up to third worst episode. "Eck" and "Barham" have been demoted. I don't know what the hell I was thinking.

I am going to have to watch Tourist Attraction again and see if it has improved with age.

Hmmmm. Man, I dunno. I'd probably give the edge to Tourist Attraction, since the Ichthy is so much cooler than a bunch of plastic flowers.Craig Beamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01039251711343080950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4584587054071618235.post-15436970769969143372014-05-12T08:29:22.250-07:002014-05-12T08:29:22.250-07:00My list comes from Schow's book.

I would have rather seen The Zanti Misfits and The Invisibles. Specimen is not the worst episode of Season One. Tourist Attraction is...in my opinion.i-Lens Artographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557135512123790408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4584587054071618235.post-15557475338231995972014-05-11T04:56:15.070-07:002014-05-11T04:56:15.070-07:00This is a great way to revisit some of the episode...This is a great way to revisit some of the episodes and recreate the history of the show's run.
