   not every character is going to be perfect every episode but there are some   
   episodes that remind me that Lisa genuinely does care for her family she is   
   the one to get bart's soul back in the one where he sold it. She learns to   
   empathize with Homer doing    
   the best he can to be a good father Lisa has done every single member of her   
   family a kindness at one or another she's selfish sometimes and maybe abit   
   full of herself but to say there's nothing good about her is a falsehood I   
   wouldn't have The Simpsons    
   without Lisa she offers more to the show as it's voice of reason than someone   
   like Brian on family guy does we see her truly be remorseful and understanding   
   that she's going to make episodes like everyone else I recommend you watch the   
   episode where she    
   is accepted into MENSA and then tell me that she doesn't learn something
