While the first few episodes of season one don't seem to have quite reached the show's potential, this is the first episode that does. Succeeding the episode There's No Disgrace Like Home (another highlight of season 1, but it feels somewhat experimental), this episode introduces classic Simpsons characters that are still active decades later. The plot is good as well, just a simple revenge mission against the school bully, yet it is very entertaining.
While some of the characters are a bit different from their final product, this episode is still very enjoyable.
