Here you go.

good job. I like the first story for the treehouse of horror

Funny Stuff!!!!! Anyone Else!?

21.04: "Lisa Simpson: Substitute Snitcher"

"the new black sheep of the Simpsons family"- that's like saying that Bart might become the rebel of the family.

21.06: "Homer Begins"

Sounds like a recycle of the 'Marge gets addicted to gambling' episode, though if done right it would be all right. What's with the title?

21.11: "X-Friends Live"

Picking up a story this long after the original episode is just stretching too much. There are people who are fans of the show who weren't alive when the original was made, and as such the significance of the episode is much less than it would be for veterans of the show. Leave it alone.

21.13: "The Courtship of Roddy's Father"

Lurleen is a drunk who lives in the gutter (to quote her, "This morning I woke up in a ditch"). Ned won't be attracted to her, merely feel pity.

21.19: "There Will Be Homer"

Lisa isn't that dumb.

21.20: "Bob "Weaver" Terwillger and Bart "The Golden Boy" Simpson!"

Bart is in the YMCA? Bob, despite being jobless can suddenly go back to the United States to volunteer at the Y? With what money?

21.21: "The Boards of Education" (Season finale)

Leave Bergstrom alone. It was a great, touching episode, and shouldn't be sullied 20 years later.

There are some good ides there, but a lot of repetition- Homer getting a new job (that had been flogged too much by the writers), use of old characters being brought back (Mona Simpson, Stanky, etc).

I can't tell if Simpspin's ideas were serious or not

I am being serious.

HEY WAIT!!!! HELLFISH! THIS FOURM WAS OUT BEFORE THE OTHER ONE!!!!!!!!!!!
