Prelude To Innovations in Motion

I have to say that tonight was a fine Simpsons episode. It had duel story lines, good jokes, and felt like it had some length to it. It really felt like it was longer than 30 minutes, like some stuff happened. The first part with the kids on the school bus, with everyone laughing at Nelson, that was good. Then, the video monitor stuff on Homer, Lenny , and Carl, that was good. When Bart went to Capital City it was good. Ralph was good: "I don't like you boy-mommy" I believe the line was. I would have liked to see how it would have been if Milhouse stayed in Capital City, and Bart would visit him, but the Simpsons are about the old standards. It was a good episode, a fine episode, and it does not exemplify the "going downhill" of the Simpsons.
