Publisher's Summary

We Put the Spring in Springfield: Chronicling the Golden Era of The Simpsons is a detailed study into the quirky intangible factors that lead to the rise and fall of The Simpsons' phenomenal early years. From Michael Jackson's bizarre guest appearance that kickstarted the golden era to the death of Maude Flanders and all the Conan O'Brien throwaway gags, Phil Hartman guest voices, extensive movie references and encore-worthy musical numbers in between, We Put the Spring in Springfield serves as the perfect companion guide to the Simpsons' golden years and delves into the particular elements that made seasons 3-8 so magical. For anyone who was religiously watching FOX Sunday nights throughout the 1990's or just happened to borrow the season 3-8 DVDs from a friend, We Put the Spring in Springfield is a must-listen, promising to make a Simpson out of all of us.

Narrator has an annoying voice Retreading old ground

Narrator has an annoying voice, and the story seems to be retreading old Simpsons stories that’ve been around forever. Nothing new. Only made it about 20 minutes in.

Great for Simpsons fans

A fun little refresher on the best years of The Simpsons (seasons 3 through 8). Worth the listen. I really appreciated that the narrator himself sounds like a Simpsons character.
