A Fun Episode as the Family Head to Paris,
lesleyharris3020 June 2016
To Courier with Love is a great Simpsons episode with a well written plot and plenty of very funny scenes. This episode sees the family heading off on vacation, the set up is very fun as Homer must carry a briefcase containing a valuable item in order to get a discount on the vacation and hilarity ensues as he struggles to hide it from Marge. I was disappointed by the lack of adventure in this episode, in all the vacation shows, such as Blame It On Lisa and Twenty Minutes Over Tokyo, the family go on a journey that they could never do in Springfield, they did not take advantage of that with Paris. It is very sweet as Homer and Marge's love for one another is as clear as day, moments like the one's we see here remind us of the strength of their relationship, as well as how far they have came since the beginning of the series. While lacking in real excitement, To Courier with Love is still a very enjoyable Simpsons.

Homer promises Marge the trip of a lifetime, but he soon gets himself in trouble which he must hide from his wife.

The Simpsons' Love Letter to France
santifersan18 January 2023
"To Courier with Love" is an episode of The Simpsons that showcases the show's signature wit and humor, but also has its fair share of shortcomings. On one hand, the episode features clever jokes and clever references that will make you laugh, but on the other hand, some of the jokes and gags fall flat. Furthermore, the stereotypical representation of France in the episode is a very Americanized view and doesn't add much realism to the show, which is known for its clever satire. Despite these shortcomings, the episode is still tolerable to watch and it has its moments of wit and humor. Overall, while it's not the strongest episode of the series, it's still worth watching for fans of The Simpsons.
