Yeah, LOL, I did. Even more than the flies and frogs episode from last year. I mean for a season finale, that was awful. Too much time spent in the van, stupid storyline, bad jokes, corny Jerry Springer fight-style ending. What a bad taste that left in my mouth. ;D

Based on my reading of comments here and other ELR forums, "Golf For It" seems to have evoked extreme reactions from most ELR fans. Some loved it while others hated it. Looking at ELRO's grades, it seems she likes and dislikes similar kind of episodes as most of us here. I want to calculate S8 individual averages; so if you haven't turned in your grades yet and want to , please hurry up!

Yupi-I was just thinking about the line graph you made for season 7 as I was reading the posts before the one you just wrote. Can't wait to see how the graph turns out!

Season 8 Individual Averages 1. ELRobsessed: 3.06 2. Yupi2004: 3.04 3. Laur70: 2.94 4. VMoney10: 2.84 5. Urhash: 2.71 6. Samantha: 2.57
Observations
1. Wow, as you all can see, the averages are pretty pathetic for a show that is supposedly one of the best on TV and a favorite of most of us. If memory serves me right (Iron Chef anybody?), these numbers are even worse than those from S7. My conclusion is either this season really tanked or we all are a bunch of miserly graders. ;D
2. Grade distribution as calculated from our averages. A<-----13 Eps.----->B<-----6 Eps.----->C<---3 Eps.--->D<--1 Ep.--->F
Not bad actually.
3. Best episode ie. this episode received the highest combined average: it's a tie between "Liar" and "Blabbermouths." Both received 3.9. Runners- up: "Fun with Debra" and "The Ingrate" both received 3.61.
4. Worst episode ie. this episode received the lowest combined average: No suprise here as "Peter on the Couch" handily wins this dubious title with a failing score of 0.9. Runner-up: "Golf for it" with a slightly better score of 1.4 Lauren, I will have the graph ready by tomorrow.

I would like to give the Season an overall B. I think there is good and bad every season.
Even Ray says he does not really like all the eps. but I think there was more good than bad.
