Mine’s gotta be Marge on the Lam. It’s got Ballet as bears driving little cars, it’s got Homer about to have his arms sawed off cause he didn’t let go of soda, it’s got good waffles sticking together, it’s got moonshine straight from your own still, it’s got ghost cars, it’s got Miguel Sanchez, it’s got Sunshine and Lollypops and Raibows, it’s got precious antique cans, it’s got suspects in a…red car who are passing directly beneath the earth’s sun…now. it’s hilarious and really encapsulates season 5s ‘fuck it, we ball’ attitude.

    I don’t know if it’s underrated but “The Boy Who Knew Too Much” (s05e20) by far my favorite episode.

    The Boy Who Knew Too Much (The Simpsons)

    …In the episode, Mayor Quimby’s nephew Freddy is wrongly accused of assaulting a waiter, with Bart (who is playing truant from school) being the sole witness to the true course of events. Since Bart cannot reveal what he knows without admitting that he skipped school, he faces the dilemma of either testifying on Freddy’s behalf and facing punishment himself, or staying silent and allowing a miscarriage of justice.

    I took some notes for each episode for myself when I was watching the first seven seasons. I’m disappointed that the only thing I wrote about this episode was…

    I loved this episode.
