....behaviorally.
What are some episodes from the 90's seasons that are both representative of Classic era Simpsons but also don't feature (or greatly deemphasize) Bart being a disrespectful little shit?
We're trying to create an incentive for my fiancee's 9 year-old son to stop cursing and complaining, sit down and do some reading, the relatively modest work assignments his teacher e-mailed this week, kindly take advantage of his grandma's generous offer to have him sleep over at her house one night this weekend, and in general not turn every interaction into the Price is Right. At present what he most wants is the ability to watch the Simpsons on Disney Plus.
Our issue isn't content in the usual sense (I watch Bob's Burgers with him all the time and a lot of that kinda stuff just goes over his head anyway), but the sense that temperament/maturity-wise the fact that Bart's kinda a little shit might further encourage his bad habits in terms of how he interacts with adults.
Off the top of my head the "Mr. Plow" episode (season 4 , #9) and "A Star is Burns" (season 6, #18) seem like a good bets. Are there any others obvious ones that I' forgetting that would fit the bill?
