    Easily the best of the future episodes (others being Bart to the Future and Future-Drama), this is a great episode. Lisa sees the man she loves in the future, Hugh Parkfield. However, her eyes see him for what he truly is; he does not like her family at all. Lisa simply can't be with someone who does not appreciate her family (and this makes her appreciate them even more), so they break-up.

    A good episode, has some funny gags and a somewhat saddish ending, I thought. A good offering ,my overall grade for this would be an A+, very easilymoreless

    At the Renaissance Faire, Lisa wanders into the fortune teller's booth and has her entire future laid bare. She sees herself in the year 2010, attending Harvard and falling in love with a British student named Hugh Parkfield. Hugh asks Lisa to marry him, and as their wedding approaches Lisa worries that her family--in particular, her father and brother--will embarrass her in front of her new husband and his upper-crust parents. After a series of embarrassing interludes, Lisa comes to understand that, even though they may not be classy, polite, or sanitary, Homer, Bart, Marge and a now teenage Maggie are her family and she loves them. Guest Star: Mandy Patinkin as Hugh Parkfield.moreless

  • A magical episode.

    "Superb"
    It is one of my favourites.. If I had to pick a show ending episode I would pick this one.. It really is a great episode- I knew I will like it from the moment it came to the future.. It shows how everything changed- but thats only a background for the real story- Lisas wedding,which has a great ending- also there are many storys- what happened to who- like with Mr. Burns and his seventeen stabs in his back- or grown up Maggie. I give this episode 9.8 - maybe it wasn't as funny as some other ones- but it sure was great.moreless
