Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Factual errors: After Snake is executed in "Hell Toupee", someone makes a remark about how they will now "chop him up for organs." Organs from prisoners executed in the electric chair cannot be used in transplants; the electrocution pretty much fries them to a crisp. more
Quotes:
Marge Simpson: I can't believe it. Jerry Springer couldn't solve our problem.
Lisa Simpson: And now he's dead.

One of the best episodes of Season 10, 18 November 2007
8/10
Author: TheLionKing from Australia

This is not only one of the best episodes of Season 10, but one of the greatest Treehouse of Horror's of all time. It delivers some great jokes, some that are mostly absent from the rest of this season.

This episode is just a breath of fresh air after the last two disappointing efforts (VII, VIII), which were actually quite bad.

But above all else, it's just a clever episode. Quite consistently good. The first two segments were the best, but the third one was still watchable.

If all Season 10 episodes were as good as this, it might just be better than Season 9. If you're a fan of the prime, classic seasons (how couldn't you be?) then I'm quite sure you'll enjoy this episode, if only on a few levels.
