What the Hell Edition (Mar. 4)

Worst: What the hell?

Runners-up: Beetle Bailey, Blondie, Curtis, Hagar the Horrible, Red and Rover, Rhymes with Orange

Best:

Weirdest. Pathos. Ever.

Runners-up: Big Nate, Watch Your Head

Good Parenting Edition (Mar. 3)

Worst:This is another of those what the heck strips. The thought process must have been something like: Jimi Hendrix looks funny. Poodles look funny. What if I cross Jimi Hendrix with a poodle?

Runners-up: Baldo, Beetle Bailey, Blondie, Brevity, Curtis, Dennis the Menace, Family Circus, For Better or For Worse, Hagar the Horrible, Mother Goose and Grimm, On the Fastrack, Pickles, Speed Bump

Best:

Zits, for once, shows good parenting. Connie consistently over-indulges Jeremy, and then whines when he acts spoiled. Protecting kids from consequences only leads to risky behavior.

Runners-up: Agnes, Pooch Cafe, Sally Forth, Sherman's Lagoon

I don't get it (Mar. 2)

Worst: I suppose the joke is that the cow's udder is comparable to a belly button? If that is the joke, it's not funny. If that isn't the joke, I have no idea what is going on here.

Runners-up: Family Circus, Foxtrot, Frazz, Garfield, Hagar the Horrible, Rhymes with Orange, Zits

Best:

It's always kind of incongruous when the animals' natural behavior clashes with America's natural behavior.

Runners-up: Brewster Rockit: Space Guy!, Candorville, Get Fuzzy, Opus, Sherman's Lagoon

I knew the Far Side, and you, sir, are no Far Side (Mar. 1)

Worst: What the hell is that thing?

Runners-up: Blondie, Hagar the Horrible, Red and Rover, Speed Bump

Best:
Scott Stantis continues his bold stand, and his avoidance of bad jokes.

Runners-up: Baldo, Beetle Bailey, Brewster Rockit: Space Guy!, Lio, Pearls Before Swine, Pooch Cafe, Rhymes with Orange, Watch Your Head
