      Season 2 – The Simpsons

      1990 Holiday Comedy Animation List
      100% 8 Reviews Tomatometer 94% 250+ Ratings Audience Score This long-running animated comedy focuses on the eponymous family in the town of Springfield in an unnamed U.S. state. The head of the Simpson family, Homer, is not a typical family man. A nuclear-plant employee, he does his best to lead his family but often finds that they are leading him. The family includes loving, blue-haired matriarch Marge, troublemaking son Bart, overachieving daughter Lisa and baby Maggie. Other Springfield residents include the family's religious neighbor, Ned Flanders, family physician Dr. Hibbert, Moe the bartender and police chief Clancy Wiggum.

      David Hinckley New York Daily News The Simpsons remind us that, contrary to the impression one might get from America's Funniest Home Videos, humor based on screwing up does not have to stay on the level of The Three Stooges. It can be genuinely touching and much funnier. Jan 27, 2021 Full Review Wook Kim Entertainment Weekly As Mr. Burns would say: "Excellent!" Rated: A- Jun 12, 2018 Full Review Joshua Klein Chicago Tribune Reliably funny. May 30, 2018 Full Review IGN Staff IGN Movies This is one of the best seasons.
