Not Just for Fans
TheWinterGal15 March 2022
Even a person who never watched The Simpsons before, would enjoy greatly this one, even without knowing the characters as well as the regulars.

This episode is a truly rare pearl in a sea of bad episodes. I don't know how about others, but for me somewhere in the early 00's - The Simpsons stopped being my most favorite cartoon time and became just another one.

This episode reminds me of the good days, when you weren't sure you would end up disappointed after watching a new episode.

Bart is being Bart which is ALWAYS GOOD, but the real surprise is Martin, who gets darker just in the (very) unexpected good way.

Even Lisa's interaction with Marge and Homer was fun. Lately on the Simpsons, the side story is usually dull and the humor is dry, but this episode is almost-perfect, and certainly worth watching with a big smile.

Awesome adventure episode
dannylloyd-058325 April 2022
Great seeing episodes not full of stupid topical jokes and instead just having a cool adventure story with Bart and the boys. I liked the overall idea and the humour was entertaining. The characters all seemed like themselves and nothing feels forced or out of place. Definitely worth the watch.

Underrated gem

This episode was a great Bart episode and also added more development to Martin which I loved. I even genuinely laughed at some things the bullies/willie said which I haven't done for a lot of these new episodes. In my top 5 favourite of season 33.

Oh Boy I haven't seen a Bart Episode so great since Kamp Krustier

It's Hard to find a Great Bart Simpson episode since Season 29 and this one is now my new favorite episode this year. The story is Amazing when Bart, Nelson, & Dolph end up going to The Highland Trek for making Devious Deeds in the past week and more excited that Martin Prince returns as a main character for this one.

This could get even better to make this walking trip of a Extreme Adventure/The game pieces when the characters kept walking included Axel the Baby Goat.

Boyz N the Highlands
studioAT3 October 2023
It's a testament to the show that even in tis 33rd series (yes, really- 33!) it can still find new layers to add to the characters, and it shows that off here with the character of Martin Prince.

I can't echo those on this site who make out that this was an excellent episode though I'm afraid.

It started well, it had its moments, but for me lost its way in the final act and never really recovered.

You have to salute the show though for trying different things though and having a good go at keeping the programme fresh.

I think we all have 'our' sort of 'Simpsons' episode, and this just wasn't mine.

Very solid episode
smithzed11 March 2022
The episodes this season have been a lot better than previous seasons, and this is no exception. It's entertaining and a nice Bart & Martin episode, which is always a good pairing.

Get Duked!

Warning: Spoilers
The plot of this episode borrows lightly from that of the movie "Get Duked!". I would highly recommend the movie. Otherwise a solid showing on the part of The Simpsons finding inspiration from interesting international cinema.
