    • Trivia
      After Lisa installs the TiVo and begins to fast forward through the adverts for Itchy and Scratchy, we can see a number of commercials featured in Simpsons. Included are the "Mr Sparkle" commercial from season 8 and the SpringShield ad from Season 13.
    • Goofs
      In the court scene when Sideshow Bobs questioning his father, it shoots back at the audience and you can clearly see his father sitting next to his wife.
    • Quotes

      Wes Doobner: [In commercial] Howdy, folks! Are you tired of family arguments on where to go to dinner?

      Homer Simpson: Sometimes I think about getting on a bus and never coming back.

    7/10
    For Season 19, The Chills of Sideshow Bob Still Arise
    For Season 19, Funeral for Fiend with the masterminding, cunning and sadistic Sideshow Bob is another great chilling, comedy which I still love. Man even When he disguised as Wes Doobner with the line "Hello.... Simpsons". That gives me the creeps.

    The Next Sideshow Bob Plot sets out as The Simpsons family buy cable T.V and they skip every commercial to watch all their favorites shows in one piece. Though one night, Marge gets a terrible vision of a commercial man telling her to watch the commercials and she does so. After they gets sucked into a Wes Doobner Commercial. (Side Show Bob disguising as Wes) They then go to the restaurant *Trap* and Side Show Bob has them trapped once again. Then throughout the entire episode it lacks though it still manages to have an excellent plot.

    This episode is good. I suggest you try it 7/10
