Revision as of 17:15, August 26, 2010 by TheHomer (talk) (If that will be the new look, this out.)

"Bart the General" is the fifth episode of Season 1. It aired on February 4, 1990. The episode was written by John Swartzwelder and directed by David Silverman. This is one of the few episodes that doesn't include an opening sequence.

After defending Lisa from school bully Nelson Muntz, Bart becomes Nelson's latest target. Sick of the harassment and torment, Bart, Grampa Simpson, and Herman (a slightly deranged military antique store dealer with a missing arm) rally the town's children into fighting back against Nelson and his cronies.

Two new characters were introduced in this episode. The first one is Nelson Muntz, who remains a frequently used recurring character.The second is Herman who has been used less.
