"I'm sorry if my review just confuses people"
Don't think about it, for me your review is ok.

As for me - I saw yesterday's night the ep. called "Make Room for Lisa". What to say, that's classics for the whole Lisa-adorers

[description]Maybe domeone doesn't remember the plot, I say a pair words. Because of Homer's usual dumbness he's got to pay a lot of money to Smithsonian museum. The company of mobile-telephony takes his duties and for that he's obliged to deploy an aerial which is placed right in Lisa's room. The whole mess causes her to fall with a stonach-ache and the way out for her is finded - to stay some time in a special isolated capsule. And during such her self-exploration she realises that sometimes and she is not so good in dialogue and acts quite impatiently...[/description]

My opinion. The whole plot maybe not so great to make Lisa go for self-exploration (which is, I believe, one of the main points in the episode), but it work and it's quite funny (and logical at the end:) ). The personages are shown typically for middle-time episodes: Homer is definitely dumb and very self-confident and he looks so petty. Marge uses to be a typical heusewife, she's being interested with a gossips which she takes because of antenna in their house. And to be fair her plot with Bart was not so bad, especially in the end of a story (well, maybe that was pretty harsh she dealed with Milhouse)..

But the main character of the episode is Lisa and she showed in not great, then at least pretty well. She's indignant, close to be fair and, as it was in all classic middle-episodes, uses to be a 'keeper of the principles'. The scene when she doesn't understand Homer's fun (when the nasty animal-related incident was shown at TV) was some kind of _determinative_ for me. Men, it's so in her character, I simply fall in love again every time I see such powerful and true moments with her... She shows her wish for studying instead of stupid pastime which her father suggests to her. And that's another scene I adore so much (and to be fair she looks so cute when lying on her belly in the living room).

But the "second" part of the story, when both they have gone to the "Carmaceutics" shop was significant too. That little self research makes her to realise who she is and how calmly she must be with people who doesn't understand her (no matter becasue of what..). And final scene when she hugs her dad was really joyous.

That's a nice episode. - 4,2...4,4 of 5

"Large Marge"

I loved the plot idea, as well as the small part with Clinton, Carter, and Bush acting like the three stooges! 4/5

Oh, and by the way, welcome to the forum, lisaslilsis Nice nick and familiar avatar you have

The Latest Treehouse of Horror

The first segment was just hilarious, and I loved the second one. I liked the idea of Marge being a hitman. She was also really sexy in that black dress. (I admit, I have a small crush on marge as well, but it is no where near how I love Lisa) The third one was funny, but I was so ashamed of Lisa being subjected to such torture, all she has ever done is good.

The Separate Vocations

The episode in perfection showing that people of uncommon mind can try oneselves the mask of hooligans with ease. And they'll act on this time not less professionally than the hooligans themselves. This, by the way, suggests me an idea that not all who badly went to school - is stupid. There are different scopes of intelligence and everyone considers by itself on what way to follow in a life. I am not surprised that Lisa suddenly became "the bad girl", all of us perfectly saw, that it has been caused. I'm not consider that it is something bad, everyone has the moments of weakness, when you are simply knocked down. However, I have understood for myself once again one of the main ideas of this episode. If the person is really clever and has already proved itself as "the positive person", other people will help it when he will stumble. As it did Bart for Lisa - she has not had time to open mouth as he already interceded for her, taking all fault on himself.

I connect another intersting moment with definition of future destiny of Lisa. To be honest, I'm not so sure that the fate of housewife is so bad and unachievable to her. Remember what said Declan Desmond in "'Scuse Me While I Miss the Sky"? That Lisa is something like smorgasbord (or something such - I don't have the original text) That can do for her a bad turn when it came to choose the future vocation, don't you think so? Will she become an scientist-environmentalist, the office employee, the teacher in junior grades or someone else? Still, I think positively she'll be a president in future.

I just saw this one too. It's a nice episode, although the second part was a bit pointless. Lisa looked very cute as a witch in the third part.

Homer getting his head stuck in Ploppers behind was kind of meh, though... :S
