Fans of The Simpsons since i've been making more of an effort to make a review based on episodes of the Simpsons alot more often and alot more quickly then what I had been doing previously. I thought that now was the right time to talk about another classic episode of the show with episode being one of the very episodes of The Simpsons to get banned from syndication a little while and so join me as I review was perhaps the most controversial episode of The Simpsons with the episode itself being called simply just "The City Of New York Vs. Homer Simpson" enjoy.
The plot of this episode is after his car goes missing thanks to loaning his car to a forcibly sober Barney Gumble Homer Simpson finds out that his car is parked up in New York and so with the rest of his family in toe The Simpsons go and visit New York where they only have a few short days in order to pay of the massive parking violation (thanks to one Barney Gumble) bill otherwise there car will end up in the river. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the actual plot of this episode was rather freaking good and was also rather freaking simple enough to follow without getting either lost or even confused in my opinion anyways / at least.
Starring in this episode is Dan Castellaneta as Homer Simpson and Barney Gumble , Julie Kavner as Marge Simpson and Nancy Cartwright as Bart Simpson. Also starring in this episode is Yeardley Smith as Lisa Simpson , Hank Azaria as Moe Szyslak , Sam The Barfly , Carl Carlson , Duffman and as The Khlav Kalash Vendor and lastly we also have the great Harry Shearer as Lenny Leonard and as Larry The Barfly.
Now then as for / in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was up to the shows very high standard of high quality acting. This is because all of the core cast of episode gets alot to work with since the script for this episode is also really freaking good and that helps making the acting in this episode all the more better in my opinion anyways / at least.
Doing the animation for this episode is Film Roman Productions and Rough Draft Korea and well I have to say that I really did like the animation that's featured / presented to us in this very episode. This is because The Simpsons when it was in it's prime always had some really good animation even in the shows bad episodes and the same thing is of course true for this episode in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Now then I think it's pretty freaking obvious as to why this episode got pulled from being in syndication. Since the main plot of this episode does indeed feature indeed the World Trade Centres and even now thinking back on why this episode was banned from syndication the TV networks really only had one choice but to pull this episode out of syndication but on the plus it is a good thing that this episode has now officially reentered syndication even with some apparently really bad edits made to this very / particular since this is a really freaking good episode in my opinion anyways / at least.
Now then I will very fully much admit that this episode doesn't really do much with it's New York nor do they really make any jokes about being in New york just to get there car and nothing more then that. Which is a shame because you really could have had some fun with the New York setting but for whatever reason the makers of this show and of this episode chose not to have some fun with this episodes New York which is a completely missed opportunity in my freaking opinion anyways / anyways.
I will also very much admit that the very idea of Barney Gumble the town drunk being forced to stay sober for a very long period of time is indeed a very funny idea in my opinion anyways / at least and heck you very easily could have gotten an entire twenty two minuet episode of the show just based from that one idea alone. However tho having barney being the character that pretty much starts of the plot of this episode is also a very good use of the character as well in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.
Now then this particular / very episode has / had a grand total running time of exactly twenty one minuets and seventeen seconds and well in all honesty I in all honesty thought / feel that this particular / very episode lasted / lasts the right amount of time. Given the story the makers of this show and of this episode had to work with and in all honesty i kind of wanted this episode to be longer since I just wanted to see what The Simpsons family would get up to in New York but that in the end would have doe more damage / harm to the episode then good in my opinion anyways / at least.
Now then since this show is a comedy show after all and there are some actual jokes to be found in this very episode that means that I have to actually talk about the actual jokes that are actually featured / presented to us in this very episode and well in my opinion anyways / at least I in all honesty think / feel that the actual jokes that are actually featured / presented to us in this very episode are very hit and miss. Since even tho there some really funny jokes to be in this very episode with the above picture being just one of them there are also alot of really unfunny jokes in this episode which for The Simpsons that's in it's prime is not a good thing at all in my opinion anyways / at least.
Overall this was a really good episode and it's also a really good episode of what The Simpsons was like when it was right there in it's very prime in my opinion anyways / at ;east but tho with all of that being said it's not a very good episode infact it's just a good episode and nothing more then that in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and that means that this episode earns itself a grand total score of exactly an 8.5 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official The Simpsons fandom wiki page and lastly from Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images this film being the official The Simpsons fandom wiki page this is because all of the images that I got and that currently up , featured and on the official The Simpsons fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high in definition.
