Review: The Simpsons end 2002 (when it comes to new episodes) with a good episode featuring everyone's favorite recurring villain, Sideshow Bob. The episode's plot line, in which he's actually helping the Simpsons instead of trying to kill them, provides some freshness to the usual Sideshow Bob episodes, although there's probably going to be a few people who felt that the "shocked Sideshow Bob" bit was overdone. The clues to Homer's attempted murderer, as well as the identity of the murderer, were thought out well, and there were some good laughs along the way (i.e. "Mmmm... steamed Gentile", Homer attacking the dummy version of himself). The only flaw was Bob's song as he attempts to kill Bart because it is funny, the felt a little out of place and more like something to fill in a couple of minutes at the end (it would have worked better if Bob was singing it at the jail). Other than that, it was a decent Sideshow Bob episode. Thumbs up.
