Oddly enough I'm going to agree with you here averion. If you started watching SP in season 1 like I did, you will probably agree. Season 9 just seemed too campy to me (search film lit if u dont know wat that means

).
I absolutely hated the Free Wilzyx episode, it was funny for a sec. then it got old really fast.
Die Hippies Die was a great episode but honestly the only one I liked at all out of the season.
The Losing Edge is my all time most hated episode. Absolutely boring. It reminded me of the movie with Keanu Reeves and the baseball team...just backwards. Literally the exact same thing happened in the movie as in SP just totally in reverse.
Rands fights were funny...but that encompassed a whole like 60 seconds of the 25minute long episode.
Trapped in the Closet was just "okay," I liked it for the fact that it said a big F-U to the scientologists, and the parts with R-Kelly were hystarical but as far as the rest of SP episodes go it definitely didnt make the top 10 :l
The day before the day after tomorrow was just stupid. Almost as stupid as the movie Day After Tomorrow...almost
But thats me :l=
