In this day and age with various online streaming services and other platforms to watch TV shows, clip show episodes are kind of obsolete. Sure before Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and other streaming services were even imagined clip shows might have been necessary because if you just began to watch a show it get you interested in past episodes and possibly increase ratings for those episodes in syndication. However now they seems to be a trend of creating a clip show episode using clips from "episodes" that never happened, and as a result it's left to the user's imagination of what unfolded in that clip, while I can't remember the name of the episode Ed, Edd, n' Eddy had one when they were going over some of their old scam props and Community had a few episodes that did that.
