After being a part of our lives for so many years, it’s easy to take the creative geniuses behind The Simpsons for granted. Then you start watching the episodes from Season 14 and you realize that while other animated shows may try to be smart and subversive, they don’t hold a candle to the adventures of the family from Evergreen Terrace. Among the highlights of Season 14 is a show where Homer goes to rock and roll camp (How I Spent My Strummer Vacation), complete with special guest stars like Mick Jagger and Keith Richards providing their voices, and a heartfelt, but still very funny episode where Mo the Bartender becomes protective of Maggie. The standout of the season, though, just may be Large Marge, an episode where Marge goes into the hospital for liposuction and accidentally gets breast implants instead. It’s silly, sexy and seriously funny.
