4/26 - Father Knows Worst (LABF08)
Homer decides to handle Bart and Lisa's academic and social problems,
respectively, by "helicopter parenting" - that is, lots of hovering
over them; Marge can't get enough of the sauna in the basement
5/3 - Waverly Hills 9-0-2-1-D'oh (LABF10)
Homer and Marge rent an apartment in highbrow Waverly Hills so Bart
and Lisa can attend a better school, but Bart manages to make Lisa's
unpopularity worse by claiming she's friends with singer Alaska
Nebraska, not realizing she's playing a concert in the area; Homer
gets a little used to living without Marge when he moves into the
apartment just in case the school tries to make sure that somebody
actually lives there
5/10 - Four Great Women and a Manicure (LABF09)
Another "Simpsons characters as famous figures" anthologym with Selma
as Elizabeth I, Lisa as Snow White, Marge as Lady Macbeth, and an
adult Maggie (voiced by Jodie Foster) as - well, the way it's
described, she's a female version of Peter Keating from Ayn Rand's
"The Fountainhead" - as Marge and Lisa try to show that women can be
beautiful, intelligent, and powerful all at once
5/17 - SEASON FINALE - Coming to Homerica (LABF12)
Homer forms a vigilante group to stop the Springfield Cat Burglar...
no, wait, he forms the SpringShield security agency to take over the
town's policing - er, no, he forms a border patrol to stop Odgenville
citizens from trying to move into Springfield after its economy
crumbles like Krusty's tainted veggieburgers
5/24 - PRE-EMPTED for "Digger & Friends"...oh, and the Coca-Cola 600
NASCAR race (local programming airs after the race in the west)
STUFF for "The Good, the Sad and the Drugly" (LABF07)

...the Sports Illustrated issue that Skinner wants to get rid of is
from 2001, when Barry Bonds hit his 73rd home run in one season?
...there's an actual reference to El Barto made by somebody?
...the hopscotch rug in the therapist's office begins with a 2?
...when Bart set the table, he didn't put a napkin under Homer's
fork like he did for everyone else?
...Barney's vomit and Wiggum's bleeding appeared as happy faces to
Lisa?
GOOFS / FREEZE FRAME / WHATNOT
Plates of glass were falling out at the school, but those wouldn't be
held in by screws.
When Lisa is in class, her hair is messed, but in the first scene in
Principal Skinner's office, it's briefly fixed before it is messy
again.
Milhouse's hair is messed when he first appears on Bart's doorstep,
but then it appears fine.
Apu says that Bart is drinking a 512 oz Squishee, but that's four US
gallons; the cup isn't nearly big enough.
