What a great episode but ...

... it got a bit strange at the end. At least to me. Those have seen it, understand.

I don't know. It gave me old Simpsons chills so I'm very pleased. The only thing which annoys me is singing every single time...

A Rough Start, But A Hilarious Finish

[santifersan · 6/10 · 3 February 2023]

It's true that the episode starts off on a rough note with Lisa singing and meeting a girl who simply can't exist in real life. However, as the episode progresses, it becomes more and more interesting with great gags such as Homer drinking from the hose, causing Marge to worry about his misbehavior, or as another has mentioned, the text message that Homer sends to Lisa on her phone.

Despite the rocky start, the episode's development is highly entertaining, making it one of the more tolerable episodes of the later seasons. The humor is spot-on, especially when Homer and Lisa's relationship takes center stage, and the writers use this dynamic to their advantage, giving us some of the funniest scenes in recent memory.

Overall, "The Girl on the Bus" is a well-crafted episode that proves that even in its later seasons, The Simpsons can still deliver quality content that appeals to its dedicated fans.

Nailed it !

Wow ! It was such a long time ago I watched a good The Simpsons episode and this episode was really good. Felt like it could've been a storyline from a new The Simpsons movie. And the part about Homer texting Lisa omg hilarious !

Strange and dull

I found it very weird that Lisa breaks character by skiving off school, and randomly enters the house of a complete stranger? And then is suddenly accepted like she didn't just illegally enter someone's house... Weird.

A strange episode, and even more nonsensical ending.

Finally an episode that looks like the good ol'days

Visual jokes, a touch of absurdity, lack of a serious theme... it was really an episode that makes me laugh like the old ones.

I haven't seen one of these for a reeeeal long time.
