Over the long run of the Simpsons there have been many episodes which feature 3 mini-stories that are held togeather by a backbone story plot. The reason for 3 mini-stories is due to the commercial break structure of the show.
Halloween Specials
The Halloween episodes are the most well known but there have been many others. After season five the backbone story was removed from the halloween episodes but the 3 mini-stories still remained.
Non-Traditional episodes
Several episodes do not fall into the normal pattern of 3 mini-stories.
Vignettes
In 22 Short Films About Springfield Bart and Milhouse wonder about the various stories that happen around Springfield. The episode inspired Simpsons creator Matt Groening to come up with a concept of a possible spin-off series called Tales from Springfield, about the recurring characters of Springfield.
