The Second Battle of Springfield was fought between "the North" (Union forces commanded by Ulysses S.

 CANOE -- JAM! Television - TV Shows - The Simpsons: 'The Simpsons' hits a Homer run
All the elements of classic Simpsons are here: Satirical swipes (unions), cunning reflections upon adolescent humiliations (the contraption with which Lisa is outfitted) and a faceoff between the crafty Burns and clueless Homer who, for once, wins the day.
From the outset, when The Simpsons debuted as the first primetime animated series since The Flintstones after a string of shorts on the Tracy Ullman Show in 1987, the series towered creatively over its three-dimensional competition.
At that point, in their 16th season, The Simpsons will have outlasted The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet and become the longest-running weekly comedy series on TV.
