Short #36: Bart the Hero
This is one of those shorts that feels like what The Simpsons would do once it became a 30 minute show. Bart is forced by Homer to exercise. He enjoys it and stops for some candy, only to confront a thief robbing the candy store. It's one of those shorts that doesn't exactly translate well to a minute long short, but it certainly is practice for bigger episodes once they wrote 30 minute scripts. You'll get a few chuckles out of it
Score: 6 out of 10
Short #37: Bart's Little Fantasy
You wouldn't think rehashing the first 20 seconds of a short would work, but it does here in Bart's Little Fantasy. The kids are forced to clean up a mess of toys. Bart tells a story which has Homer and Marge in the kids role of cleaning. It is pretty funny, since you could see Homer acting the same way as his son if he were a child. There isn't much to say. It's one of the shortest shorts of the season and run on Tracey Ullman. That being said, it's executed well and a good one to see.
Score: 7 out of 10
Next week, the kids go see a movie, and Homer tries out hypnotism.
