After sneaking away from a school trip to a box factory, Bart sneaks onto the set of the Krusty the Clown show. He gets a job as Krusty's production assistant and soon becomes sick of the job. One day, he is close to quitting, but Krusty runs up and says he needs to use Bart in a sketch. Bart becomes an accidental star when he says, "I didn't do it" during the botched sketch. He becomes famous but soon becomes tired of being known for one line. Marge convinces him that the main thing is to make people happy, so Bart decides to continue, but the audience soon becomes tired of Bart's act and forget about him. Guest star: Conan O'Brien.

"Homer and Apu"
After twice getting food poisoning from expired food sold at the Kwik-E-Mart, Homer teams up with Kent Brockman to report Apu. Apu is fired from his job and comes to stay with the Simpsons, and he is replaced by actor James Woods. Homer resolves to help Apu get his old job back, and the two travel to India to talk to the owner of the Kwik-E-Mart, but are unsuccessful. Apu decides to visit his old Kwik-E-Mart and saves James Woods' life. Woods is so grateful that he helps Apu get re-hired. Guest star: James Woods.

"Lisa vs. Malibu Stacy"
Lisa protests against the phrases on her new Talking Malibu Stacy doll, which she finds demeaning to women. She tracks down the reclusive creator Stacy to make a more politically correct doll. Meanwhile, Grampa is worried that he is getting old, so he takes a job at Krusty Burger. Lisa and Stacy create "Lisa Lionheart" which gets a lot of positive buzz, but is a flop when the Malibu Stacy executives release a new doll that comes with a hat.Guest star: Kathleen Turner.

"Deep Space Homer"
NASA decides that they need to hire average joes in order to get higher television ratings. They recruit Homer and Barney to train to be the first average American in space. Homer, who wants to be respected, is the winner by default, and goes into space with Buzz Aldrin. While there, he causes a lot of havoc and eventually breaks the handle on the space shuttle's hatch. Homer inadvertently seals the door shut with an inanimate carbon rod, and the shuttle returns to Earth. The rod is hailed as a hero, but Homer gains the respect of Aldrin and his family. Guest stars: Buzz Aldrin and James Taylor.

"Homer Loves Flanders"
Homer begins to like Flanders after being invited to a football game. However, Homer's constant presence around Flanders and his family causes Ned to feel hate for Homer. One day while trying to drive away from Homer, Flanders is arrested and charged with drunk driving. Flanders begins to lose the respect of the church congregation until Homer sticks up for him. Flanders thanks Homer and the two remain friends.

"Bart Gets an Elephant"
While stuck cleaning the house, Bart wins a radio contest and chooses a gag prize, an elephant, instead of the real prize, $10,000 cash. The radio station eventually gets Bart his elephant, which is named Stampy. When taking care of Stampy gets too expensive Homer decides to sell him to an ivory dealer rather than turn him over to a non-profit Animal Refuge. Bart tries to run away with Stampy, but the elephant escapes. They track him down, and Homer agrees to give him to the Animal Refuge.

Nachos submitted by Drake Emmitt on August 29, 2014, 8:13am The nacho episode is funny :) well they are all funny!

Classics submitted by Fevvers - STAR473 on July 11, 2015, 9:04am Lisa vs Malibu Stacy - A depressing real look at how far we haven't come in gendered toys. And yet Lisa's gumption gives us hope.

Deep Space Homer - In Rod We Trust.

Bart Gets An Elephant - Unforgettable (see what I did there?) "I want my elephant!" he demands, when the radio station had offered a cash prize or an elephant to a winner, but intended the elephant as a joke. But Bart persists, and finds himself with Stampy, a full-sized elephant who is awesome but incredibly out of place on Evergreen Terrace.

Apu submitted by willow on August 11, 2015, 6:43am Hank Azaria, who is of Greek/Jewish origins, plays many characters on The Simpsons, most famously Apu. Azaria based his voice on memories of Indian and Pakistani 7-11 clerks, according to an interview with India Abroad. Apu has been a controversial character, as he is generally depicted as a typical Springfield resident aside from the Apu-centric episodes; this DVD contains "Homer and Apu," where his work at the Kwik-E-Mart comes under scrutiny.
