Of those, the extreme right is better in my eyes: I like the way the text caresses the shape of the face itself, drawing attention to it.

It might just be me, but for the icons, I'm not keen on the obscured letters; I read "frowned" as "frowner"...

Great points about the episode, though.

I like the fourth one best - the expression and the placement of the text just work for me :)
