SO FAR This episode is the only season 24 episode that It cracked me up so much.

10

By Ayranci, Feb 24, 2013

I liked season 24 so much but this season didn't crack me up so much but this episode was so hilarious. When Homer and Maggie watch a Baby Poindexter DVD, Marge tells them to stop watching the DVD because the DVD isn't good for kids and she says no TV for one day. Marge decides to take Maggie to childrens bookstore. The Simpsons go to the bookstore and Homer finds a book that he can find the hidden objects. Later Homer use it to find Lisa and Maggie. In Milhouse's house, Bart starts an epoxy fight but It ends up in Milhouse's hair. After Bart shaves Milhouse's hair, he tells him that he looks like his dad and he uses Milshouse to do anything and he teachs Milhouse to how to be a man. The last episode disappointed me so much but this episode was so hilarious and 100% better than the last one. This episode has so funny moments. It was funny when Milhouse's sound turned into Duffman's voice. It was so funny when Homer watched the shapes from the DVD. It was funny when Homer said "Finally, a kid's show that isn't trying to sell me something. Which reminds me, we need to order more dectangles". Also the ending cracked me up so much. It was hilarious when Homer find the objects in real life. "Ice-Road Hand-Fishing" programme was hilarious. The couch gag of this episode was good and this is the second couch gag of Game of Thrones parody. This episode is the funniest episode of season 24 and you should watch this episode. 10/10moreless
