The Simpsons - S20E03 - Double, Double, Boy in Trouble Review

Categories: Episode Reviews

"Double, Double, Boy in Trouble" isn't the best episode of The Simpsons, but it wasn't entirely bad either. It focused on Bart's bad behavior. It's well documented by now that Bart isn't the best behaved child and one could blame it on anything, but I liked that flashback of Marge swallowing that single drop of alcohol which supposedly turned Bart into a little monster when he was developing.

Thankfully Bart isn't like most other teens who all seem to have cell phones and portable music players.

In the season premiere, Homer Simpson and Ned Flanders get together as two unlikely partners ... Read More

Categories: Episode Reviews

I don't watch The Simpsons nearly as much as I used to. It's mostly because the show doesn't make me laugh very often. Besides, I'm usually busy Sunday night on something or another, so I guess it wouldn't matter if the show did get better. I happened to catch last night's new episode, "Papa Don't Leech". Centered around a financial crisis in the city of Springfield, the episode was very dull. I only recall laughing out loud once and ... Read More
