Great Show, Good Book Nov 06, 2005
By CJK
"Chevy Crazy"
This book is probably a must for any real "Simpsons" fan. It is full of summaries of each episode in the 13th and 14th season, as well as memorable quotes, interesting trivia, and things you may have missed. The book offers interesting character designs from different episodes, as well as on-going couch gags and what Homer likes ("Mmmm") and dislikes ("D'oh"). However, I feel some of these things are just placed inside to make the book seem more full and deserving of $15. But, overall, I was very happy with the purchase and, as I stated earlier, I feel it is an essential for a big "Simpsons" fan.

Love it, but I feel like I'm getting ripped off Feb 02, 2007
By Evan Montgomery I love the Simpsons and these books are a "must have" for any serious fan. Plot summaries, gags, quotes, movie references, song lyrics, and "the stuff you may have missed" are all great. As I am rewatching the seasons on DVD, I love to pull out these books and refer along.
However, I am a little irritated at how much I feel Groening and company to be "milking" these books and the consumer for $$$$. The first book contained 8 seasons and was great. Now lately, all three of the subsequent books only cover two seasons? This latest book was released in 2005 at the beginning of the 17th season. Surely they could have made more of an effort to make the book more current and include the 15th and 16th seasons as well.
I'm a little annoyed that it cost me $12 to buy the first book in this series that covered EIGHT seasons, and yet I've had to spend $42 on three books which have only covered SIX.

The simpsons Feb 27, 2006
By Antonio A. Acosta This book is perfect for any simpsons fan. You can follow the entire show with this book. The funnest part is reading along as you watch the particular show, and find the little stuff the book puts out
best simpsons book ever! Mar 13, 2010
By Sports Purist I'v read all of the simpsons books in this series and this one was by far the best.
Great for hard core Simpsons fans Aug 22, 2008
By SA White This is a great episode index for hard core Simpsons fans. It works out best with the DVD set, as you can read about the episode and watch for things that Matt Groening picks out as his favorite jokes/parody. It is handy for younger fans who do not know the jokes as sometimes they pre-date our generation. It tells the history of both minor and major characters, and also has the chalk board and couch gag for every show.
