"O Brother, Where Bart Thou?"
Spoiler:
When Lisa tells Bart she has a special sibling bond with Maggie that he will never understand, he asks Homer for a baby brother.

That was a pretty fantastic episode all the way through.

Loved Homer's cereal of bacon and maple syrup topped with sausage slivers.
Also, the Simpsons sisters as the Sex in the City girls was hilarious.

The South Park homage was pretty cool.

I have to comment again: the switch to HD certainly has this show doing basic things like establishing shots with more interest.

I laughed the entire episode, it was great. I'm a huge Smothers Brothers fan, my dad and I caught them live this summer. They're still spry as ever.

I liked Homer's reactions at the horror movie...

I thought this was a really good ep. Quite a few good gags in this one. It seems like this is turning out to be one of the stronger recent seasons.

This was a realy good episode - loved the South Park visual.

I kind of liked the idea of brother having a new friend / brother.

Who ever wrote this episode did a great job !

FWIW, this episode was even better/funnier watching it for a 2nd time.

I'm feeling good about this season. I feel like the tone is more in line with earlier Simpsons...
