You know how yesterday I talked about the weird Renaissance of Mr. Burns episodes we’ve been having? Well, that streak is going to continue today, because we’re getting yet another one! And, it’s weird as all hell! The episode begins with Smithers dropping Mr. Burns off at […]
Welcome to Season 28 everyone! We’re in the home stretch now, folks, and here at the end of this project I’ve made a startling discovery. We’re suddenly getting Mr. Burns-centric episodes again. I had kind of assumed that this type of episode, one of my favorites, had […]
Happy New Year, and welcome back to another week of Lifetime of Simpsons. We have a big week ahead of us, with the end of Season 27, the beginning of Season 28, and by Friday we’ll be talking about the 600th episode of the Simpsons. By the […]

Happy Friday everybody! You know, as the show has progressed I feel like I’ve been getting more and more ruffled by the episodes where the family do truly insane things. Yeah, in Season Five they sent Homer Simpsons to space. That was nuts. But by this point […]
