- DirectorBob AndersonStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightSibling rivalry between Bart and Lisa ensues when they become the star players of their respective ice hockey teams.Kind of just boring to me with them playing hockey most of the episode.
- 1989– 30mTV-147.4 (2.8K)TV EpisodeDirectorDavid SilvermanStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightTroy McClure hosts a retrospective of the first 137 episodes of The Simpsons (1989).This is the best clip show episode, but I really dislike clipshow episodes. Really appreciate that they at least threw in some deleted scenes.
- 1989– 30mTV-147.0 (3.1K)TV EpisodeDirectorCarlos BaezaStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightWhile Homer recovers in hospital from Bart's disastrous April Fool's Day prank, the family reminiscences over earlier hardships.They always have mediocre selections for clips when they do this, they always feel choppy and confusing and would much rather want a rerun of an old episode.
- DirectorDavid SilvermanStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightThe family recalls past tales of lost love.If you actually wanted to reminisce on the characters old times wouldn't you want to watch old reruns of your favorite character? You don't need it spoon fed to you.
- DirectorJim ReardonMark ErvinStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightHomer is disappointed when the western he rented turns out to be a musical, so the family reminds him of the musical moments in the show's history.This is the worst clip show episode in the entire series. Glad they stopped doing them after the last one in Season 13~2002 permanently.
- DirectorSteven Dean MooreStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightWhile Bart is hospitalized, Lisa runs into her old mentor Bleeding Gums Murphy, who is also a patient, and becomes devastated when he dies soon after.All those celebrity appearances in the clouds made me cringe and, the fact that this character feels very disposable bothers me. Know Lisa references him afterward in a few episodes but the relationship has a forced and or rushed aftertaste to it. At least in my opinion.
- DirectorSteven Dean MooreStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightAt his 20th anniversary celebration as school principal, Principal Skinner is discovered to be an imposter of the real Seymour Skinner.Extremely non cannon non sense.
- DirectorJim ReardonStarsDan CastellanetaJulie KavnerNancy CartwrightThe Simpsons try to reunite Mr. Burns with Larry, his slovenly long-lost son.Never really see this character again, hate disposable characters. It's an okay episode overall.
