The Simpsons: Funeral for a Friend

 Welcome to the Frasier reunion. Yes, not only did we have Kelsey Grammer reprising his role as Sideshow Bob Terwilliger in that episode of The Simpsons but we plus had David Hyde Pierce return as Cecil Terwilliger and John Mahoney come in as the boys’ father. While Pierce and Mahoney did have their moments it was all Grammer that episode as a Sideshow Bob coming apart at the seams.

And, that’s appropriate, as it was the tenth moment that Bob has presented on the lively comedy. I fear there is a bit of

a discrepancy, though, since Bob didn’t attempt to murder Bart in each of those appearances. For instance, in the first season episode “Krusty Gets Busted” Bob attempted to frame Krusty rather than kill Bart (he barely even knew who the boy was). In “Brother From Another Series” it was Cecil, not Bob, who attempted to kill the young Simpson lad. So, technically, you could say that Sideshow Bob directly attempted to kill Bart in five episodes (including tonight’s). that, I am certain, will bring debate to the board.
