Season Info
Season 19 contains the episode "That 90s Show," which revolves around a surreal paradox: Because the show's characters never age, a flashback to Homer and Marge's courtship now takes place in the early 1990s, despite the fact that a Season 2 episode had them first meeting in 1974! The Emmy-winning "Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind" provides a more-successful example of playing around with time, as Homer attempts to piece together his memories of a night of heavy drinking.

Marge is held hostage during a bank robbery and forms an uneasy bond with one of the thieves before he's taken to prison. Dwight: Steve Buscemi.
Treehouse of Horror XVIII
The series' 18th Halloween show features three vignettes that parody movies: one that spoofs "Mr. & Mrs. Smith"; one that sends up "E.T."; and one that parodies "Se7en."
Little Orphan Millie
Milhouse stays with the Simpsons when his parents remarry each other and honeymoon on a cruise ship. But when his parents are knocked overboard and lost at sea, Milhouse decides to grow up and be a man.
Husbands and Knives
Marge opens a gym for real women because she's disenchanted with Springfield's snooty, glitzy L.A. Body Works. Her gym, Shapes: A Gym for Women, is a huge success, launching a chain that makes Marge rich and famous. But Homer fears Marge will leave him for someone more attractive and goes to extreme lengths to try to save his marriage. Jack Black has a singing cameo.

Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind
When Homer returns to an empty house after a night he can't remember, he has to figure out what happened. In his desperation to recapture his past, he explores the inner workings of his mind, and we see a day-by-day look at his entire life.
E Pluribus Wiggum
Homer burns down Springfield's fast-food district. In order to float a bond issue to rebuild it, Mayor Quimby moves up election day, making Springfield's primary election the first in the nation. This causes the town to be overrun with reporters, candidates and pundits. Dan Rather and Jon Stewart have voice cameos.
That 90s Show
Flashbacks follow Marge and Homer back to their dating days, when she was a college student and he was working for his father to support her. Then Marge becomes smitten with a professor, so a sorrowful Homer turns to music---and invents grunge. Kurt Loder and "Weird Al" Yankovic have cameos as themselves.
Love, Springfieldian Style
Homer and Marge celebrate Valentine's Day by going on the Tunnel of Love ride at a carnival, but they end up stranded when Bart pulls a prank involving gelatin. To pass the time, Homer tells the love story of Bonnie and Clyde, Marge tells her version of "Lady and the Tramp," and Bart tells the love story of Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen.
The Debarted
A new kid at school named Donny (voice of Topher Grace) works with Bart on his pranks. But when the pranks start to backfire, Bart wonders if he can trust his new accomplice. Meanwhile, the Simpsons get a fancy loaner car after Marge gets in an accident, and Homer falls in love with it. Terry Gross has a voice cameo as herself.
Dial 'N' for Nerder
Homer cheats on his diet, so Marge gets a reality show called "The Sneakers" to check up on him. Meanwhile, Bart and Lisa fear that a prank they played on Martin Prince had deadly consequences.

In the 19th-season finale, Lisa receives Springfield's Entertainer of the Year Award, and Sideshow Mel narrates her history in showbiz in a wry spoof of "All About Eve." Drew Carey voices himself.
