I wanted to find the episode where Fred makes a ham sandwhich.
So I searched for 'Ham'.
It brought up hundreds of episodes. I clicked on one and look for 'ham' and it was actually the word 'hammered'.
This was frustrating.
And I never did find the ham sandwhich episode.
P.S. An option to search the episode options would be very, very neat.

Re: Ham Overwhelms The Search Engine
Another option for when you want to search for a specific word is you can use a space before or after the word. That way you'll be sure to only match the word by itself. The problem with this approach is if the word you are looking for starts a line, or if it is at the end of a sentence. You can of course try various combinations to make sure you find all episodes with the word you are looking for though.Lots42 wrote:I wanted to find the episode where Fred makes a ham sandwhich.
