This long-running animated comedy focuses on the eponymous family in the town of Springfield in an unnamed U.S. state. The head of the Simpson family, Homer, is not a typical family man. A nuclear-plant employee, he does his best to lead his family but often finds that they are leading him. The family includes loving, blue-haired matriarch Marge, troublemaking son Bart, overachieving daughter Lisa and baby Maggie. Other Springfield residents include the family's religious neighbor, Ned Flanders, family physician Dr. Hibbert, Moe the bartender and police chief Clancy Wiggum.

A bored Marge decides to try her hand at selling real estate and makes her first sale to the Flanderses.

When the Simpsons' Christmas presents are stolen, the residents of Springfield rally to the aid of Homer and his family.

Marge and Lisa try to soften Homer's mood after he inadvertently rents a musical instead of an action movie.

Homer invites carnival barkers to be house guests while the show is in town.
