Any episode featuring Howard McNear is great. Even in season seven when you could tell he was very ill, he was amazing. This one and the one with the female fugitives are my favorite Floyd episodes.

My favorite Floyd episode is the Gay Deceiver when he was entertaining his lady pen pal Madelyn Grayson, or was it Madison Graylyn? He was such a miserable wretch in that episode.

4/10. The actual name of the hymn on question 2 is "There is a Fountain."

This is is the worst I have done on any TAGS quizzes. I have seen that episode many times though.

6/10 - love this episode because ANGE actually tears into BARN because it was Barn's fault to start everything

9/10. Missed #1. The answer to #10 is wrong as I just checked the episode. Gilly is at the courthouse telling Barney what had happened at the filling station and said that after he had honked the horn a few times, Goober came out and punched him. So the punch at the filling station was never shown but Gilly makes it clear who had hit him.
I haven't seen the episode in a while, but what you say sounds right to me, and is bolstered by the fact that Goober was punched at the courthouse (question No. 7), so he couldn't have been punched at the courthouse, too. I'm sure no one got punched twice, even though Barney did have the men of the town simmerin' near the boiling point!

Who punched Gober at the filling station? I think ole man Foley punched him in the barber shop , but can't remember the filling station.

9/10. Missed #10. Not one of favorite episodes.
#10 is wrong. The answer is Gilley
I was gonna say the same thing. Gilley's at the courthouse swearing out a complaint against Goober for the punch. That's the only one I got wrong so we were right...MeTV was wrong. Give yourself credit. We're 10/10 on this one.
This is my absolute favorite episode. Well maybe a tie with Convicts At Large.
Definitely, two of the best episodes of the series.
And Floyd and Barney play dominant roles in both.

I liked how Foley described how Floyd would punch someone.
“ It was more like a boop.”

That means you got #10 wrong because MeTV made a mistake. You actually got 9 out of 10.
Correct. Gilley is the right answer
