"Brother from the Same Planet" is a pretty good episode where Bart gets a new father figure from the Big Brother program. While this episode has some great gags, which has been a standard this season, I found Lisa's side plot extremely mediocre. Aside from one great scene involving Principle Skinner, her side plot is entirely unremarkable and feels like an afterthought. Honestly, this episode would have benefitted with just the main story, in my opinion.

Overall, a quality episode, minus the side plot.

My two favorite jokes from this episode:

  • TRAB PU KCIP

and

  • "Come on, Bart, we had our fun. Remember when I used to push you on the swing?"
  • "I was faking it... Remember this? 'Higher, dad, higher! Wee! Wee!'"
