25 years old and still holds up amazingly well to this day.

The mid-1990s was a simpler time. There was no pandemic, no social media and The Simpsons was at the height of its powers, having not yet entered the terminal decline which is still ongoing to this day.

The mystery as to who in fact shot Mr. Burns served as the finale to Season 6 and wasn’t solved until the first episode of Season 7, a time when The Simpsons could do little wrong. And boy did they pull it off.

Spoiler alert: It was Maggie. To mark the 25th anniversary of the second and concluding episode of Who Shot Mr. Burns this week, we’ve put together a short quiz recounting some of the main events of two of the show’s best ever episodes.
