Maximum Homerdrive

This was a good episode plenty of laughs the plot was interesting, not what I'd call a classic Simpsons episode but it was still very good indeed. I feel like while though Marge and Lisa's storyline was funny it could have done with something more, not sure what though.

Very nice

Very nice episode on the responsibility of completing things that no one asked you to do, the moral of this episode is strange but the episode in general is very funny.

The Big Rig
Hitchcoc1 October 2022
When a legendary truck driver bites the dust, Homer takes it upon himself to drive his rig to Atlanta. Bart rides along and they have a series of adventures. On the way he finds that the trucks have a kind of automatic pilot that allows them to just sit in the cab and collect their wages. It's supposed to be a secret, but Home blabs to everyone. In a non-related plot line, Marge decides to go over to the wild side by buying a new doorbell. Unfortunately, it plays a Carpenter's song and she can't get it to stop. Homer and Bart encounter angry truck drivers who hate him for giving up their secret. Decent episode.

Keep on truckin'

This episode is pretty much at the tail end of The Simpsons golden era which I count as the first 10 seasons without a doubt, although there were some outlier episodes beyond that that I could count as being worthy to watch.

Maximum Homerdrive is the ultimate road trip movie, with Bart and Homer taking on the truck delivery of a truck driver who died in a steak eating contest.

The Carpenters get much play in this episode with their Close to you doorbell jingle driving Springfield residents absolutely nuts without a doubt.

The ending showed how Bart and Homer bonded through their truckin' journey.

Not bad, plenty of laughs. Your father traded our tools for M&M's again, heh.
