The Simpsons: 'Treehouse of Horror XXXVII' Review
"Treehouse of Horror XXXVII" is far from the worst Halloween special The Simpsons has delivered, but it can't compare to Season 38's other Halloween episode.
The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror XXXVII Review
The Simpsons' track record with Halloween specials has seen an improvement in recent years. Treehouse of Horror XXXVII is not the strongest or weakest episode, but rather a decent one following the superior Treehouse of Horror Presents: The Revengening. While it may be a good idea to stick to full-length episodes, viewers should not complain if both formats are presented.
This year's episode does not have any standout segments or weak links. The cleverly titled Bride's Shed Revisited features Marge cycling through various husbands, culminating in an unexpected pairing with Survivor host Jeff Probst. The episode also includes a Pet Sematary parody, Dog Boy Afternoon, and a time-jump segment, Vehicular Dad Slaughter, showcasing Patty and Selma as witches.
The focus on Marge and her sisters, along with Kavner's improved vocal performance, adds to the episode's strengths. Overall, Treehouse of Horror XXXVII is the second-best Halloween episode of Season 38.
