I remeber when BBC 2 done The Simpsons Night and Lisa's Wedding was the episode that seemed to be everyone's favourite episode.

There was a one-off special that was broadcast between these two episodes. Aired in September 1996, 'Springfield's Most Wanted' was a parody episodes of 'America's Most Wanted'


This special was designed to help people find out who shot Mr. Burns, by laying out the potential clues and identifying the possible suspects. It features live action appearances from former L.A police chief Daryl Gates and predictions from Dennis Franz, Courtney Thorne-Smith, Kevin Nealon, Chris Elliott, and Andrew Shue. Also included was Jimmy Vaccaro of The Mirage casino and hotel in Las Vegas, who had been taking bets on the shooter's identity


The special was criticized for taking the publicity of the episode too far with several people criticizing special host John Walsh's credibility and describing the episodes as being noting more than a gimmick.

The episodes averaged an 8.4 Nielsen Rating and finished 50th in the United States in the ratings for the week of September 11–17, 1995

I did like how they done a parody of a James Bond movie set in a volcano and imitating Goldfinger. Even the two brothers from Frasier do add in a few quotes from the show.

I know I said this before, but this is probably the pinnacle of The Simpsons. You Only Move Twice could be the best episode ever – Hank Scorpio is such a brilliant character, thanks in part to Albert Brooks' voice talent. Bart After Dark is more than the brilliant Grandpa .gif and We Put the Spring in Springfield song.




El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Jomer is a wonderful piece of storytelling, and I love both the animation and Johnny Cash providing the coyote's voice. The Springfield Files was really smart when it aired, capitalising on the popularity of The Simpsons and The X-Files to create fun for all the family, the songs in Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious are incredibly catchy and memorable, and it is a great homage to Mary Poppins.

I could go on, but you get the picture!

Lisa wants to see the new Egyptian display at the museum, Marge has to take Bart to the emergency room and Homer tells Lisa to take the bus but she ends up lost.

Natural Born Kissers
Homer and Marge try to spice up their life and realise the thrill of almost being caught gets them going, until they are nearly snagged at the mine golf course.

This was a good season of laughs, The Halloween episode done a version of the fly from the 50s with Bart and the spider that was done in the film. Otto driving the bus and the last words heard by him were Zeppelin Rules, which some of us would agree. The religious group that believe they will be saved by a UFO is a nod the the cult Heaven's Gate who believed that when they died they would be transported by a UFO to another planet.

Even though one episode was dedicated to Linda McCartney who died to breast cancer, this is the last time we see Lionel Hutz or Troy McClure speak as Phil Hartman who was murdered by his wife in a murder suicide, we do see the characters in later episodes but only in the background.
