They are hilarious... I could totally see someone uninitiated with either the show or the game completely falling in love with both through this book. A really great read!5.0 out of 5stars -WOWZA: The character reviews alone make this a must-read for tapperinos new and old and that's just one chapter.

From one addict to another, this fix hits the spot.5.0 out of 5 stars- The best way I can explain it is that it's like sitting down for a chat with someone who really loves the game. Not only that, but they know both the game, and the Simpsons series, inside out.
