Most fans can pretty much agree on the clunkers of the series (Half-Way Horrible, The Pit, The Kidnapper), but are there any episodes that are genuinely extremely well-liked that you're just not a fan of?
For me, I was never really too fond of House of Horrors. It's certainly better than those aforementioned episodes, but I've always found it a bit overrated. It sort of plays like a weak combination of Television Terror and Mournin' Mess.

Death Of Some Salesmen for me. I just don't find it all that enjoyable to watch and it doesn't feel very Horror-y or EC-esque to me, although Tim Curry is great as usual I wish he'd been in a better episode more worthy of his talent. Not a bad episode per say but it's a very "meh" one for me.

It's been a long time since I last watched it in all fairness and it'd be a good one for me to re-visit, someday.

Another I'm not a fan of is You, Murderer. It's just not a very enjoyable episode at all for me and I don't get the gimmick of an impersonation of a long-deceased actor when it's clearly not him despite an earnest attempt at an impersonation. Always seemed like a gimmicky episode to me and like a weak attempt to salvage the mostly sub-par sixth season.

I don't like Yellow, Three's a Crowd, or Cutting Cards quite as much as everyone else does. They're not bad episodes or anything, by any means. But I often see them at the top of every list of favorites I see regarding this series, when none of them would likely even crack my top ten.
