Summary: Very entertaining
Review: An interesting, funny look at America's favorite dysfunctional family. My favorite part was "who does what voice". Dan Castellaneta is truly a versatile guy. (Is he related to Lenny Castellaneta, author of "No One's Even Bleeding"?) And "the stuff you may have missed" is just what it says... hysterical, subtle "stuff" many people miss the first time around. (Have to wait for the reruns.)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Egh
Review: By no means is this a step up or an improvement from the other outstanding guides to "The Simpsons." In fact, a bit of a step down.

You get your memorable quotes from episodes, your summaries, your "Movie Moments," etc. But my favorite part about the other guides was the little box that pointed out the "Things You May Have Missed." That box doesn't seem too thorough in this guide:

There are always more and more "in-jokes" in the newer episodes...so why does this guide talk about them less than any of the others? It doesn't make sense; it was a little disappointing.

What you'll find in those boxes in this new guide are a bunch of tidbits that waste time...they point out bits such as, "Bart is wearing his lucky hat in this scene, which he hasn't worn in two seasons." It's too bad that the writers missed things that I, a regular fan, can find without even taping the episode and using the pause button. But everything else was up to par!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Book EVER!
Review: I am probably the biggest Simpsons fan ever born! I know some of you would argue with that, and lets just say we're tied. Anyway, this book is amazing! It tells you things you might not have spotted in the episode that are hilarious and you would have missed otherwise. It even has a huge list of couch gags! This would be a great gift; I know, I got it as a gift!

Summary: Best Book Ever
Review: I love this book and I read almost everday. I love reading the Simpsons' crazy adventures and since I am a Simpsons fan I had to own it. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about each episode.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfect
Review: I will keep this short so you can buy the book already. This book (along with the others in the series) is a great addition to watching the show. The best part of these books is that they catch the nuances that fly by the screen. Some of the best jokes are missed because they go by too quickly.

This book helps us get all of the Simpsons humour without us having to play with the pause buttons on our VCRs.

Even without all of the Doh's, chalkboard quotables and character write-ups, this book is well worth the money.

I still can't believe what this show has become since its first start duing The Tracy Ullman Show (and the <Blank> Is Hell book series prior to that). Glad to see that some Hollywood writing still has merit.

Summary: A Fun and Insightful Book
Review: If you are a fan of the Simpsons, which I do not doubt if you are considering buying this book, I strongly urge you to pick this up. I have the two other Ultimate Simpsons books, and while seasons 11 & 12 are not the best the show has to offer, this is far and away the best of the three. Each show gets a 2 page synopsis, except for the two treehouse of horrors, which get 4 a piece. More quotes and more "stuff you may have missed" can only be a good thing. I was a little disappointed with the second book, with its lackluster plot retelling and lack of groundbreaking material. This one on the other hand is much better in both of these departments. Not only do you get the expanded information for each episode, but also included are rough sketches from the particular season (4 pages of these). You get to see early sketches of such characters as Xena from the Treehouse of Horror XI episode, Kid Rock from the Spring Break episode, as well as the show's regulars. Very interesting to see.

This book follows the same format as previous versions but for the first time expands on the original idea. If you have the other two Simpsons books, you will not be disappointed with this one. If you are a fan of the show, I recommend this and the other two books to you. It is a must have. A truly entertaining and insightful book!
