Why does American TV hate the French so much?. Why does everyone in Springfield hate Bart?. This is yet another example of extremely dated nonsense involving Bart being sent to France as a Student exchange program. Why is he being sent to a pair of French criminals as part of that program? , Also why is Albania suddenly a enemy nation, was this left over from the cold war. This episode has no answers but a lot of truly mean spirted and witless humor. If they had a home alone feel or something involving Bart getting back at the French crooks, then it might have worked. Also, why was Albania suddenly a vilified nation. It was completely unnecessary. And of note, the jokes in this episode kind of suck. Too stupid even for the Simpson, which shouldn't suck because this show gave us some of the greatest moments in all of comedy.
