It doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense, but I sometimes get thrown off when I get an episode of the Simpsons that tackles something that feels too contemporary. I think in my mind the show belongs eternally in the 90’s, so whenever they have an episode […]
Well folks, we’ve made it through yet another week. It hasn’t been a very great week, but we’ve conquered it. Unfortunately, that streak is not going to be broken by today’s episode. Because it’s pretty rough. There are some good moments and ideas, but overall, it’s just […]
Recently my sister-in-law sent me a link to some reddit page where someone had graphed out every episode of the Simpsons, and color-coded them by their imdb rating, letting someone get a feeling of the show’s declining quality over the years. Overall the episodes stayed pretty regular, except […]
Hey, does everyone remember that episode from Season 13 called “the Blunder Years?” You know, it’s that episode where Homer goes out to a hypnotist, and he gets turned into a ten-year old boy, only to be faced with dealing with some horrible repressed fears? Well, what […]

Time sure does fly, huh? Just last week it was Halloween, now it’s Christmas, and tomorrow it’ll be Halloween again! Pretty nutty, right? And what better way to ring in the holidays than with a really sad and depressing Christmas episode? Hey, at least they toss in […]
Well everyone, we’ve made it through another week. It hasn’t been a great week, but it also hasn’t been a terrible week. And, continuing this week’s trend of featuring episode that feel several years out of touch, let’s close things out with an episode about Apu becoming […]
You know what I just realized today? This week has a bit of a theme. And an unfortunate one. As luck would have it, this week is kind of full of episodes where the Simpsons attempt to build an episode around something that’s kind of already past […]
Hey, does everyone remember how last week we talked about a truly terrible crossover between Family Guy and the Simpsons? That was a real low point for the show, creatively speaking, right? Well, apparently, they didn’t just want to have one weird crossover in Season 26, because […]
Hey everyone. Wanna talk about fracking? Because this episode sure wants to have a cursory conversation about fracking. I guess fracking was really in the news, and the writers were desperate to jump at any story idea, so we have a whole episode about fracking! Lucky us! […]
