THE EPISODE GUIDE

 
"Grumpy Old Genie"

Originally Aired:  February 10, 1996 @ 9pm (EST)

An anonymous hacker downloads Lisa's image file and replaces it with a picture of Abe Vigoda -- now everyone's favorite genie is a dead ringer for TV's beloved "Fish." Life is suddenly rough for Old Man Lisa. Now that she's no longer young and sexy, people treat her like trash, that is when they bother to notice her at all. She solves her problem by zapping the entire world into percieving old wrinkly men as the hippest, sexiest things since Alanis Morrisette. It's now the age of "Geezer.. Chic" and all the cool kids at Farber are showing up to the Homecoming Dance with old men on their arms. The world may never recoever from this Lisa-generated culture shock. That is, unless Wyatt can manage to track down the mysterious hacker and reinstate Lisa to her super-babe self. Oh, and Chett calls a 976 number to talk to some old guy about his hot, flaming bursitis.
