Blog:The Simpsons-Cape Fear

The Simpsons is known as being the longest running cartoon in America. Err... for better or for worst. But, I'm going to talk to you about a VERY special episode from season 5, Cape Fear.

PLOT: Bart Simpson's enemy, Sideshow Bob, has gotten out of jail for the 2nd time, and is looking to kill Bart.

Why It's Great!!! 1. The awesome music that plays whenever Sideshow Bob appears on screen is amazing! 2. The fact that Homer thinks that someone is trying to kill him, even though the letter says "Die Bart". 3. Sideshow Bob has a to-do list. In jail. 4. A previous episode where Sideshow Bob tries to kill Patty is referenced, which doesn't happen too often in The Simpsons 5. Everyone in the courtroom admits to thinking about killing Patty when questions, even Patty's sister, "Because she always leaves the toilet seat up." 6. Sideshow Bob's prison number is A113, just like Krusty the Clown's prison number in "Krusty Gets Busted", which is the episode where Sideshow Bob was created. 7. I love the part where Homer is complaining about Sideshow Bob smoking in the movie theater, while HE is smoking a cigar bigger than his head. 8. Sideshow Bob's grunts are TOO funny 9. Sideshow Bob tries to think of a comeback towards Marge, fails, and asks Marge to say "Keep your hands off my son!" again! To which she replies, "NO!". 10. When The Simpsons are going over a new place to move to with the FBI, Homer mistakes "Screamville" for "Ice Creamville". 11. The whole entire scene where Homer changes his name to Mr. Tompson, and can't remember his new name. 12. The Simpsons drive through a cactus patch for no reason, other than Sideshow Bob being bellow the car. 13. There is a remake of The Simpsons intro to "The Tompsons" 14. Sideshow Bob gets hit in the face with rakes that he can easily step over. 15. Homer shows Bart his new chainsaw and hockey mask in the middle of the night. 16. Lisa thinks Homer has been drudged, even though he is just sleeping. 17. Bart distracts Sideshow Bob by making him sing the entire soundtrack from a play. 18. Sideshow Bob's great cover of "An English Man." 19. Grandpa Simpson get's locked out of the house and turns into a women because he wasn't able to get his medication.
