However, not all episodes are created equal. Some, like "The PTA Disbands" and "The PTA Fails Again (Or Is It?)", feel like rehashes of familiar themes. And then there's "Bart-Mangled Banner", an episode that's more annoying than amusing.
One of the standout episodes is "Treehouse of Horror X", a Halloween special that's become a tradition for the show. This episode features three clever and spooky segments, including a hilarious send-up of The Shining. Another highlight is "The Crepes of Wrath", a beautiful and poignant episode that explores the struggles of a single mother. the simpsons season 10 dvd5
