Top Six Best Krusty The Clown Episodes

 

My Top Six Best Krusty The Clown Episodes 

We all love Krusty the Clown, even though clowns are so scary now, and we never see them at kids' parties or even at McDonald's. So here is my top Five Best Krusty the Clown Episodes. 


6. Krusty Gets Busted 
Now I had this on my Sideshow Bob list, but I included it in my top Krusty Episodes. In this episode, Krusty is accused of robbery, but we all know it was Sideshow Bob who did it. In this episode, we learn that Krusty has several quirks: he can't read, he has small feet, and he has a health problem; he can't be near microwaves. This episode really shows how loyal Bart is to Krusty and how much he believed in his innocence. It's a good sideshow, Bob episode, and Krusty Episode.


5. Bart the Fink 
In this episode, Bart accidentally reveals that Krusty has been hiding his savings in an illegal offshore account, ruining his life. So Krusty loses everything because of his biggest fans, and he even wants to punch Bart, but is okay with it. So Krusty decides to fake his own death and become a fisherman. It's not until Bart and Lisa convince him to come back that the world realizes how much it loves and needs him. Bob Newhart guest stars on the episode, giving a speech at Krusty's funeral. This episode reveals that, despite being a funny children's television host, Krusty has done shady things, just like most show hosts. 


4. Krusty Gets Kancelled 
Krusty's show is cancelled after a Ventriloquist steals all his viewers, leaving Krusty in a state of depression. This episode features a large number of guest stars, more than in most other Simpsons episodes. It featured the late great Luke Perry, who was Krusty's half-brother, as well as The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Hugh Hefner, Bette Midler, Johnny Carson, Elizabeth Taylor, and Barry White. This episode was funny, and it had that funny Krusty moment, which was this.  
We use this anytime we watch a bad movie, speech, or anything Trump says. 



3. Kamp Krusty 
I loved the Kamp Krusty episode; it's a summer classic. Bart and Lisa go to Kamp Krusty, but it's nothing like they were told. It's awful there, and they're treated like crap. They were fed gruel, forced labor, and one of the campers was eaten by a bear! Well, actually, it was that, but it was very nice. Eventually, Bart and the kids overthrow the counselor and the bullies. They renamed it Camp Freedom, but they meant Camp Bart. They run the camp until Krusty comes, and they don't believe him until they see his scar, his birthmark, and his double nipple. Krusty feels terrible about what these kids went through, so he makes it up to them by taking them to Mexico. They have a great trip until the kids leave the bus and abandon Krusty. Overall, this episode was a classic. Kamp Krusty is a great classic from the 90s. 


2. Homer the Clown 
You remember the theory that Homer and Krusty were the same person, but it turns out they are just separate characters; they look alike. In this episode, Homer attends clown college to become a clown, and he has a great time because everyone thinks he's Krusty. One of the funniest moments is when he attacks the Krusty Burglar.
However, despite being Krusty, the Mob comes after Krusty, but it's Homer, and Homer tries to get out, but the Mob mentions they know Homer Simpson. Eventually, Krusty and Homer do a stunt together, and the two of them win the respect of the Mob. After Homer decides not to be Krusty anymore, as it's too much work. I love this episode and I found it funny how the debt Krusty owed was only 48 bucks classic Simpsons. 


And the best Krusty The Clown episode is...
Fun Fact. Plans were made for a live-action spin-off about Krusty with Dan Castellaneta, but it never took off. 



1. Like Father, Like Clown
This is the best Krusty episode because we get to know Krusty, learning he's Jewish and how he had a nasty fallout with his father, a respected rabbi who hated clowns. In this episode, the Simpsons have dinner with Krusty, his way of thanking Bart for standing by him when he was framed by Sideshow Bob. When he mentions dinner with them, he offers a Hebrew prayer and then breaks down, sharing his life story and explaining how his father disapproved of his desire to become a clown. Eventually, Bart and Lisa try to help Krusty, and they meet his father, Rabbi Hyman Krustofsky. Initially, he's not interested, but Bart and Lisa convince him, and he feels bad about how he treated his son. The heartwarming ending, where Krusty and his dad make amends, is the best Krusty the Clown episode of The Simpsons.

So that's my top six best Krusty the Clown episodes.
Let me know what you think.
