The Ned-Liest Catch

"The Ned-Liest Catch" is the twenty-second and final episode of the twenty-second season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. The episode was directed by Chuck Sheetz and written by Jeff Westbrook. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on May 22, 2011.

This is the second season finale to end on a cliffhanger, with the first being the first part of "Who Shot Mr. Burns?" from the sixth season. It is the third episode and the second one from season 22 (the other being "The Great Simpsina") to have no chalkboard gag, couch gag or opening credits on a television.^{[note 1]} It was also the first episode to cut from the clouds to the start of the episode itself.

The episode sees Edna Krabappel and Ned Flanders begin dating, their relationship being left to the public vote. It has been followed by "The Falcon and the D'ohman," which revealed that they are still together, and "Ned 'n Edna's Blend," which revealed that they have since married.
