Hi there everyone. We survived a rather unpleasant episode last week, and have been rewarded with a solid week of most everyone involved with the Simpsons digging themselves an even bigger hole. Oh well. It sucks that they aren’t open to feedback from their viewers, but there’s […]
As someone who writes obsessively about the Simpsons, a show the vast majority of people have all but given up interest in, it can get exciting to see the show suddenly make it back into the pop culture conversation. It can sometimes feel like I’m shouting into the void, […]
Hey, hey, everybody! Welcome back to my Lifetime of Simpsons with yet another episode in this bold new version of the project. And boy do I have a scatterbrained episode to share with you today! It’s been a while since I’ve had an episode like this where […]
Howdy everyone, and welcome back to another installment of the new and weird era of Lifetime of Simpsons. And we get a really weird and unfocused flashback episode that drives me insane because it mucks around with the timeline in a way that I’m sure most people […]

During this week of reckoning with my thoughts and opinions toward the members of the Simpson family there were some that I knew would be easy to write about, and others that would be hard. Honestly, even though I feel very differently about Lisa and Bart, I […]
When I first wanted to watch the Simpsons, I asked my parents if it was okay with them, because I was that kind of kid. My folks said that they didn’t have a problem with it, but I was specifically warned not to be like Bart Simpson, […]
