Homer, the recipient of "a severe audit" by the IRS, faces five years in prison unless he squeals on his friends and retrieves the rare trillion-dollar bill from Montgomery Burns in "The Trouble with Trillions," a rare Simpsons clunker. However, it does have its moments, such as the tax-day deadline melee at the Springfield post office ("The harder you push," a stern Chief Wiggum advises, "the faster we'll get out of here"). But worth the price of purchase is "I Love Lisa," one of the series's best episodes, in which a mortified Lisa becomes the object of pitiable Ralph Wiggum's affections. Highlights include Krusty the Klown's 29th anniversary special as well as a Presidents' Day school pageant featuring the song "We Are the Mediocre Presidents." (Sample lyric: "You won't find our faces on dollars or on cents.") The Simpsons is a brilliantly iconoclastic and subversively funny show, yes, but as this episode (and "Duffless" on Volume 1) illustrates, it also has a surprisingly sweet side. --Donald Liebenson

5.0 out of 5 stars 2 Classics Together, June 13, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Simpsons Political Party, Vol. 3 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The episode "I Love Lisa" give us a good example of friendship. Even when Lisa didn't like Ralph she put the best of herself to have a good relationship with Ralph. It's a good lesson for our children. Also, you will laugh a lot with the performance "We Are the Mediocre Presidents".

The episode "The Trouble with Trillions" will make you remember April and your taxes declaration. It's funny to see Homer worried about the fact he needs to pay such amount of money.

4.0 out of 5 stars one classic- one decent episode, June 12, 2000

I have been a fan of Simpsons for a long time, and to this day "I love Lisa" is one of my favorite episodes. I love the scene where the ice cream gets spilled on Lisa at the Krusty show and then it show Bart showing Lisa "the exact moment Ralphs heart breaks". "The trouble with trillions" isnt exactly a classic, but it is more then watchable. It has its moments. Give the video a shot.

I have been a fan of the Simpsons for as long as I can remember. Duffless and I Love Lisa are great episodes, especially I Love Lisa because my favorite charachter is Ralph. Although not great for a simpsons episode there is the trouble with trillions which is still worth watching, but ever since it came out in 1999 my favorite episode is Marge Simpson in: Screaming Yellow Honkers.
