What's New Beelzebub was epic. I think A lot of people will pick Chariots of the Dogs from Season 2 (and it *was* fantastic, so no fault there), but I think the size of Beelzebub and all the stuff going on in it pushed it over the top for me.

For me, it's tough to pick one episode from Season Two. I liked the Moai episode somewhat less, but the other four are pretty much flawless. If I was hard pressed, I would pick Chariots of the Dogs - most probably because I finished replaying it 7 hours ago
Sam: Sayonara!
Pedro: Que?
Computer: The talking dog says: "Goodbye!"
Max: Sam, do I get it wrong, or are we scolded by a guy who is half cow?
I really liked the moai episode which seems to get a bad rap.. But chariots of the dogs was flawless for me.. It was so funny and the gameplay was fantastic.. It really was the complete package
And by the way, i liked the Moai episode a lot more than the christmass one. And the episode i tought i'd like the most, the 3rd one, was right beside the christmass episode for me. I'm actually surprised at the Anti Moai love in here. I liked the colors, the joys, and the union stuff :P
My favorite is still Night of the Raving Dead. I was actually a little surprised it wasn't better received.
I think these polls can be misleading if you're looking at the %s, and not only the order. In this case, if I was to distribute 100% across the 4 episodes, it would look like:
- MBB: 20%
- NotRD: 25%
- CotD: 30%
- WNB: 25%
Instead, I gave CotD 100%, and 0% to the others as I had to pick one. It mostly evens out if there's a sufficient number of voters - well in the thousands, I guess.
And, I'll definitely vote for Jürgen in the best supporting character poll
Oh and I voted for Chariots of The Dogs, definitely my favorite Sam and Max game, and probably my favorite Telltale Game. It was perfect, the elevator being in almost every room was almost like having a map, the only problem I really have with S&M is the constant backtracking, which could be fixed with a map, but this managed to fix that without demanding a completely new feature. Simply awesome!
I haven't played all of Chariots of the Dogs (just the demo, can't afford the full version), but I simply loved it, which is why I voted for it. The What's New Beelzebub? demo was pretty good too, but I didn't get to play past Jurgen's intro, so I really can't say much for that one.
From what I've seen though, it was wayyyyyy too much. Sure, I mean, a cuss word every now and then is part of the Sam & Max world, right? But in WNBB, I think there was way too much cussing, way too many dirty jokes, and just some things that eyes can't unsee.
I've got nothing against profanity (although I myself do not cuss), but I've got to draw the line somewhere.

Double-same. Mostly because I have a Mac, so the Wii is the easiest way to bring that gaming experience into my household.

It simply was my favorite funniest episode of 2008. I'm having a hard time deciding if i like it better that S1E4, but i think...i do :eek:
Me too, but I voted for What's New, Beelzebub for its sheer epicness. (Epicosity? Epicity? Anyway...)

Sure, the setting is irreverent, but that's the whole tone of Sam & Max's humour anyway.
