Talking Simpsons
"This truly was the best vacation ever. Now let us never speak of it again." - Marge Simpson When The Simpsons head to a new, Krusty-sponsored amusement park, they find just about everything can possib-lie go wrong, from the lack of novelty "Bart" license plates to highly intelligent robots that turn evil via flash photography. But, like so many before them, the family soon learns that battling terrifying automatons can bring any dysfunctional group closer together.

"Mom, romance is dead. It was acquired in a hostile takeover by Hallmark and Disney, homogenized, and sold off, piece by piece.'" - Lisa Simpson In what's probably the worst episode of The Simpsons—or at least the biggest waste of time—the family recounts stories of love and loss via 16 clips and/or clip packages. Come for the jokes you've already laughed at, stay for roughly five minutes of new animation, and leave knowing this production somehow occupies valuable space in the otherwise incredibly solid season six.

"Sometimes you have to adopt your son's bully in order to bring your own family temporarily closer." - Marge Simpson After her own children lose interest in her motherly ways, Marge becomes a surrogate parent to Nelson, who takes a shine to living in a mostly loving home and eating meals that don't consist of live tadpoles. Meanwhile, Lisa develops serious body issues that can't be wrapped up in a single sitcom episode, but still manage to be partially resolved via skunk justice.

"I can't live the button-down life like you. I want it all: the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles. Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odors—oh, I'll never be the darling of the so-called 'City Fathers' who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about 'What's to be done with this Homer Simpson?'" - Homer J. Simpson Lisa becomes the victim of her own insecurities when she meets Allison Taylor: a perfectly nice girl who just happens to be younger and better than her at everything. As she struggles to accept being number...

"When Virginia Woolf wrote, 'Every woman needs a room of one's own,' she must have been talking about the kitchen." - Marge Simpson When the Simpsons' kitchen receives a much-needed renovation, Marge ups her cooking game and enters a culinary contest that puts her morality (and dessert-making skills) to the test. Meanwhile, Bart's discovery of nudity-free Playdude magazines causes him to adopt the lifestyle of an urbane early '70s pervert who's far too young to appreciate the lesser short fiction of John Cheever.
