[AABF21] ? Guess Who's Coming to Criticise Dinner?
Original Air Date: 24 Oct 1999
Written By: Al Jean
Directed By: Nancy Kruse
Special Guest: Ed Asner
Story Line: Homer becomes a food critic for the local newspaper, he gives everything excellent reviews and everyone in Springfield gets fat. When he is told that he is allowed to give bad reviews, he starts giving very bad reviews and the
restaurant owners in Springfield want this to stop. They want to murder Homer!
My Opinion: Yet another great episode that fits together well. Some really good jokes
and seeing all the people in
Springfield as fat people is really good to see. Watch out for when Mr. Burns' skins
break under his weight!

[3F05] - King-Size Homer
Original Air Date: 5 Nov 95
Written By: Dan Greaney
Directed By: Jim Reardon
Story Line: Homer needs to gain 61lbs in order to be classified as disabled and so he
can work at home.
My Opinion: Some really good animation and great seeing Homer as a really, really fat man and the jokes they make out of it, the one with him trying to dial the phone is a classic, remember that one?

[8F09] - Burns Verkaufen Der Kraftwerk
Original Air Date: 5 Dec 91
Written By: Jon Vitti
Directed By: Mark Kirkland
Story Line: Mr Burns sells the Power Plant to some Germans who have highly developed
work ethic. Homer has trouble keeping up to these high standards and causes him a lot of trouble.
My Opinion: This is an absolutely fantastic episode and if you are a fan of the Simpsons, you will remember this. Some great jokes thrown in about our German friends.

[3F03] - Lisa The Vegetarian
Original Air Date: 15 Oct 95
Written By: David S. Cohen
Directed By: Mark Kirkland
Special Guest: Paul & Linda McCartney
Story Line: Homer is planning a barbecue but this isn't like by Lisa after her visit to the Storeytown Kid's Park and has forsaken to eat all meat.
My Opinion: A great episode and one where Lisa takes centre stage and a story line has evolved out of her moral dilemmas.

Conclusion
****************
Another great collection of episodes that you can watch again and again, even if you have seen them over and over already! These are some really good episodes. Some of these episodes can be found on the box sets that are now
available. When I first brought this video I hadn't seen the first episode so it was a nice surprise to see this one.

I received this video as part of a video club I had joined and I was paying around £13.99, and this was a few years ago. This is now available from lots of different places and at very good prices. I own a lot of videos and DVD's of the Simpsons and they all go great as part of a collection. This is a video that will appeal to all Simpsons fans young and old!
