Season 2, Episode 19
10/10
The best Lisa episode of all time!
1 January 2024
I remember watching this episode a few decades ago and crying like a baby. I'm 43 now, and the tears still wouldn't stop.

This episode is my favorite from Season 2. The focus is on the relationship between Lisa and Mr. Bergstrom, but Bart does have several laugh-out moments. The relationship between Mrs. Krabappel and Bart is juxtaposed with Lisa's story arc to demonstrate how different the siblings are. Finally, Homer gets some moments to shine in his cute and inimitable way.

Among the scenes that stand out is Lisa's angry 'baboon' outburst and every scene Mr. Bergstorm is in. This episode is highly recommended for Lisa fans and anybody who wishes to experience the good ol' charm this show used to have.
