Description:
Two of the best politically themed Simpsons episodes, "Lisa's Substitute" and "Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington," have already been released on video. But that still leaves this formidable slate of six episodes. Topping the ticket are "Sideshow Bob Roberts," in which Bart's "mortal enemy," Sideshow Bob, becomes mayor of Springfield; "Trash of the Titans," in which Homer, "the last angry man," is elected Springfield's Sanitation Commissioner on the platform of "Can't someone else do it?"; and "Two Bad Neighbors," in which "local oaf" Homer squar
Two of the best politically themed Simpsons episodes, "Lisa's Substitute" and "Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington," have already been released on video. But that still leaves this formidable slate of six episodes. Topping the ticket are "Sideshow Bob Roberts," in which Bart's "mortal enemy," Sideshow Bob, becomes mayor of Springfield; "Trash of the Titans," in which Homer, "the last angry man," is elected Springfield's Sanitation Commissioner on the platform of "Can't someone else do it?"; and "Two Bad Neighbors," in which "local oaf" Homer squares off against his new neighbor, former President George Bush ("Then we're agreed; there'll be trouble"). This three-volume set also brings to the party "Duffless," in which Homer agrees to go one month without his precious beer ("I never realized how boring this game is," a sober Homer remarks during a baseball game), and "I Love Lisa," in which a valentine from goodhearted Lisa is misinterpreted by Chief Wiggum's pitiable son, Ralph. By a strictly conservative interpretation, neither has much to do with politics, but why quibble? "The Trouble with Trillions," in which the IRS leans on Homer to squeal on his friends, is a rare clunker, but only by the peerless high standards of The Simpsons. Each volume can also be purchased separately. --Donald Liebenson
