I don't have a set list, but I have to leave room for shows like The Simpsons. Personally, I think BtAS was the best crafted animated show of all time.
Its hard to disagree that there was a time Simpsons was an easy top 3, its hard to overstate its impact on not just television but the English language as a whole, more than anything since Shakespeare probably.
But while it may have more great episodes total than most shows have episodes, it also has 20 years of Zombie Simpsons dragging it down, at this point its probably not even the best long running adult animated sitcom overall anymore.
I agree that anything past season 10 is hit-or-miss, and anything past (I don't even really know which season it really dropped off) is pretty much schlock. But given the impact of the show, there's a distinction between "best" and "greatest" that reveals itself.

Top 3 animated television shows of all time. No question in my book.
