Episode details (spoilers) submitted by Ilyjtwya on June 18, 2014, 6:55pm Ep 19 "Lisa's Substitute"
When Ms. Hoover falls ill with a suspected case of Lyme disease, she is replaced by substitute teacher Mr. Bergstrom. Because of his unorthodox teaching methods, Lisa quickly takes a liking to him. Just as Lisa is about to ask Mr. Bergstrom over to her parents house for dinner, Ms. Hoover returns. Meanwhile, Bart runs for class president against Martin Prince, but loses due to the fact that nobody in the class voted, with the exception of Martin and one of his supporters. Guest star: Dustin Hoffman (as "Sam Etic").

Ep 20 "The War of the Simpsons"
After Homer gets drunk at a party, Marge decides to sign them up for a marriage counseling retreat. Homer finds out that the retreat will be held at Catfish Lake and packs his fishing equipment, despite Marge telling him that all they will be doing is resolving their differences. At the lake the next morning, Homer tries to sneak away to go fishing, but Marge catches him and he takes a walk instead. On the dock, Homer finds an abandoned fishing pole. The pole, with the legendary Catfish named General Sherman on the line, yanks him off the pier into a small rowboat, and onto the lake. Homer catches his fish and when he sees Marge upset, immediately lets it go to prove his love for her.

Ep 21 "Three Men and a Comic Book"
Bart, Milhouse and Martin Prince pool their money together to buy the first Radioactive Man comic from Comic Book Guy. They discover that they are unable to share the comic and due to their mistrust of each other, end up destroying it.
Guest star: Cloris Leachman and Daniel Stern.

Ep. 22 "Blood Feud"
After Mr. Burns falls ill and desperately needs a blood transfusion, Homer discovers Bart has Burns's rare blood type. Homer urges his son to donate some, promising that they will be handsomely rewarded. However having received the blood, all Burns does is send the family a card. Enraged, Homer writes an insulting reply, but Marge convinces him at the last minute not to send it, but Bart unknowingly mails it anyway. Mr. Burns becomes furious and demands that Homer be beaten. Smithers calls off the beating, however, on the grounds that this action is no way to thank the man who saved Mr. Burns's life. He convinces Burns to instead buy the family a present

5 stars submitted by Drake Emmitt on August 17, 2014, 9:54pm Of course I am giving the Simpsons 5 stars and an amazing review!

Lisa's substitute submitted by Fishing Rainbow on August 31, 2014, 12:56pm Great episodes full of laughter.

Two Highlights submitted by Fevvers - STAR473 on July 11, 2015, 7:55am "Lisa's Substitute" conveys the complex magic of a teacher who is able to really address Lisa's scholarship level and learning urge, combined with a preadolescent crush on a person whose presence is fleeting.

"Three Men and a Comic Book" is one of my all-time favorite episodes that I'll rewatch if I catch it on TV. It is somewhat predictable but Bart, Milhouse, and Martin don't know that, and it's a great slice-of-life episode with tropes you want to see freshly played out by these characters.
