The trick is on anyone expecting one of The Simpsons' infamous "Treehouse of Horror" episodes. "Bart Sells His Soul" and "Lisa the Skeptic" do not rank among this series' very best episodes, but true believers won't lose their religion. In "Bart Sells His Soul," Bart is convinced that the soul is "just something they made up to scare kids, like the Boogie Man or Michael Jackson." He sells his to best friend Milhouse for $5. When Bart no longer finds Itchy and Scratchy cartoons funny, he desperately tries to get his soul back. But Milhouse has already traded it for Alf pogs. "Remember Alf?" he asks. Bart's dilemma is overshadowed by a subplot involving Moe's transformation of his tavern into "Uncle Moe's Family Feedbag." In "Lisa the Skeptic," only "science girl" Lisa refuses to make a leap of faith when an archaeological dig turns up a skeleton that looks like an angel. Homer promptly erects the skeleton as a statue and exploits it as a tourist attraction. Without being preachy (or particularly funny), this episode is pretty potent stuff, as the townspeople form a mob to lay waste to Springfield's scientific institutions, and nervously await the prophecy scrawled across the statue: "The end will come at sundown." Sayeth Homer, "I don't like the sound of that." --Donald Liebenson.
Description
"Black Widower" - Aunt Selma enlists in the Prison Pen Pal Program and discovers true love with sinister Sideshow Bob. To Bart's horror, Selma agrees to marry Bob "until death do them part" - an event that could happen on her honeymoon! Now it's up to Bart to foil Bob's dastardly scheme... with a little help from "MacGyver." "CAPE FEARE" - A series of notes threatening Bart's life arrives from Springfield State Prison and Sideshow Bob! Nevertheless, Bob's parole is granted and the Witness Relocation Program moves the Simpsons onto a houseboat. Bob tracks them down but Bart turns the egomaniacal sidekick's foundness for opera into high notes of hilarity!

 Simply The Best May 15, 2004
Kevin G. Pitchford (Augusta,Ga)
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
These Are 6 of the best episodes of The Simpsons available
on three tapes.
DVD sets are coming out but, they have not got to the seasons
which these episodes are fromThis is my second favorite Simpsons episode of all time. First off, In a spoof of Gremlins and Child's Play.
Homer buys a killer doll for bart that tries to kill him.
And boy is it hilarious. Next is Ape Island which is a take off on King Kong.
Homer is King Kong and you can see how funny this will be. Dial Z for zombie follows. Dawn of the Dead in Springfield is what you are getting and I just can'r get enough.
Some of the best lines ever are in this one fragment of an episode. As homer forgets to seal off the doors to the house
and Flanders is a zombie. Classic. Second Episode: My Favorite Simpsons Episode Ever. Is The Simpsons verion of Stephen King's The Shining.
As Bart can read Groundskeeper Willies mind. And Homer
goes mad and tries to kill the family because no beer and no
TV make Homer go crazy. What a gem Now for my Favorite "Time and Punishment" Now first off I love
time travel stories and movies. And the way the poke fun at the
silliness of it all here is top notch. Homer builds a time machine out of a toaster and goes back to pre-historic times
and changes the future by sneezing and sitting on a fish.
When he comes back Ned Flanders is Ruler of the world.
Oh I love this. Now to Nightmare Cafeteria. Which is bascially Soylent Green.
As kids in Springfield are cooked up in the school cafeteria.
great. Tape 2: Bart Sells his soul to Milhouse who in turn trades it for ALF pogs. This episode is great as Moe opens a family resteraunt. Next is Lisa the Skeptic which is a very good episode that
touches on the question of science vs religion vs corporation.
Very apocalyptic yet in a very silly way. I love this episode. Tape 3: Two Sideshow Bob Episodes First Bob is in prison and gets out because of a radio talk show
host "Rush Limbaugh" is who he is supposed to be. He then runs
for office and rigs the election. Lisa and Bart discover this.
Funny episode. Last is Cape Feare where The Simpsons go in witness protection.
As Sideshow Bob is after bart. The funniest part about this episode is Bart is scared he will die and Homer keeps busting in the room like " Hey bart checkout my new chainsaw" it is
very funny. all in all
If you love The Simpsons like I Do. GO ahead and get this.
DVD's are coming really slow.
 The Simpsons score again with "Heaven and Hell." November 14, 2000

Heaven and Hell is a fantastic tape of the hilarious, clever, animated satire, "The Simpsons." The first episode in this entry is appropriately titled, "Bart Sells His Soul." It is filled with many subtle but wonderful jokes. Bart sells his soul to his friend Milhouse for $5.00, believing it does not exist. He soon goes to great lengths to retrieve it as he faces many unexpected problems and complications without it. In this episode there is also a hilarious subplot wherein Moe converts his lowly bar into a wholesome family restaurant in the hopes of making more money. This subplot hilariously satires popular family restaurants. The name of his restaurant alone evokes laughs(Uncle Moe's Family Feedbag). A series fan will be very impressed with this very bright episode. The second episode, "Lisa the Skeptic," is equally comical. Lisa unearths a skeleton that bares a striking resemblance to an angel. All the townspeople believe it is an angel with the exception of Lisa who belives it is fake. The townspeople quickly become obssessed with it. Some of the funniest scenes in this episode are the ones with Homer trying to make money off the supposed angel. There are many jokes in this episode about the debate of religion vs. science which are not offensive but are rather very creative and witty. Also, the final plot twist in this episode was very unpredictable but well thought out and completely satisfying for the viewer. Matt Groening, the creator of "The Simpsons," should be proud of himself for releasing another Simpsons tape that will delight people across the country and cause them to laugh uncontrollably. This tape is recommended to anyone who likes comic relief and will make Simpson fans out of many new viewers.
