One of the funniest of season 13
6 June 2007 | by (Netherlands) – See all my reviews

This is episode very funny, even comparable to the Simpsons in the glory days. The jokes are well written, unlike most of the other episodes in season 13. It is an episode which mostly focuses around Homer. Homer is sent to do community work after he squashes an endangered bug. He works as a food deliveryman for old people. While working for an old lady Homer and Marge find her dead. Chief Wiggum finds her will stating that all her money should be given to the Simpsons. Obviously, they are accused of killing the old lady and the court sentences them to death...

There are a few movie references in this film, including the Green Mile. Overall I give this episode an 8, highly recommend it.
