This has to be the best Simpsons episode I've seen in a really long time. The jokes and quotes were funny, the growing up storyline was both bittersweet and hilarious, and there was less of a focus on Marge. Granted, Bart isn't my favorite character either, but I loved him in this episode. Plus, there were some great Bart/Lisa and Homer/Lisa scenes. What more could I ask for? And I even loved Flanders: "Get bent, everybody!" :lol:
