That was something different of Lisa's usual manner, don't you think? Does she now taking a delight from jeering at her brother and his good-for-nothing friend?
Actually, while it differs from the way Lisa has been written in recent years, it's much closer to her character in the early seasons of the show.   I think it's a positive move on the part of the writers as Lisa's character (among others...) from the Scully era onwards, has been lacking in the depth and realism that she used to have.

The truth is, Lisa is one of my favourite, if not my favourate character from The Simpsons. I love the way she is true to what she believes, even if she is radical about it at times. She is the character behind what the Simpsons has to say about world issues, philosophy and ethics, the main reason I love the show so much. She also has the perfect mix between a mature gifted child and the normal personality of an 8 year old girl. I also respect the fact that she remains the way she is despite all the demean she recieves from the people around her. Way to go Lisa, never change the way you are.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but did anyone else feel disturbed by the scene in 'The Color Yellow' were Elisa gives in to Cornel Burns. I know it wasn't really lisa, but it really haunted me.

That was sort of the point. Look at how it haunted poor Lisa (and Eliza in that film).

What I was saying is that it worked really well, the emotion worked worked better than it did in alot of other episodes.

But the basic plot was still pretty much stolen from Family Guy.

Well not that scene anyway. On a really high level I guess your right - if you described the episode in one sentence they would be the same. It isn't that similar when you watch it though. Family guy just pretty much says they have a black ancestor and then makes a bunch of jokes about what it means in the present with the rest of the episode. Whereas the Simpsons explored the past in depth and only at the end reveals that they have a black ancestor.

Quite different really even basically.

The family discovers they have a black ancestor which, during flashbacks throughout the episode it is revealed the white ancestor looks exactly like the wife of the family and a black version of the husband. Alternate designs on the kids too, but they are present. At one point during the episode the modern day family expresses their happiness at said black ancestor and exclaim "Now I know why..." Or some derivative thereof. It's pretty darn close and I'm rather disappointed they went ahead with the plan. The actual episode was alright but I couldn't get that thought out of my head the entire time it was on.

yeah to tell you the truth I can't really remember the Family guy episode very well, it was a long time ago. If it is as you say, then yes I am disappointed in the writers lack of imagination.
