The Simpsons Se07 Ep08 Mother Simpson

“Mother Simpson” is the eighth episode of Season 7. It first aired on November 19, 1995. The episode was written by Richard Appel and directed by David Silverman. Glenn Close and Harry Morgan guest star.

To get out of cleaning a part as community service, Homer fakes his own death. When this results in the family’s utilities being cut off, Marge puts pressure on him to reveal that he is alive. However, the spurious news of his “death” brings his long-lost mother – a hippie who is on the run from the law because of her activism against Mr. Burns – back to Springfield.
