Hello everyone, and welcome to the first week of my Lifetime of Simpsons wrap-up. As I’ve said, I’m going to continue to discuss new episodes of the Simpsons as they air, but the project as it once was is now complete. I’ve discussed every episode of the […]
The end of Season Five! Holy crap. I’m sure I’m going to babble about the end of season every time they happen, but it’s still legitimately mind-blowing that I’ve gotten this far already. This was such an incredibly solid season, and the beginning of my favorite era […]
Oh man, an episode with that’s essentially a Grandpa/Mr. Burns episode? If only you could throw in some Jasper or Krusty this would pretty much be a perfect episode for me. But even without those two, this episode is still tremendous, because this is a really great […]
Well here’s another episode that really didn’t survive well in my memory. I kind of remembered it as an average episode, and couldn’t really bring up any specifics of it in my mind, and oh boy was I wrong. This episode rocks. A great Bart episode with […]
Big milestone today everyone. And not a symbolic milestone like “Deep Space Homer,” a real numerical milestone, even though the chalkboard says not to celebrate it, since it’s meaningless. This is the 100th episode of the Simpsons, and thus, the 100th article of this project. Holy crap. It’s […]

Well here’s another kind of weird episode. It’s not quite as ridiculous as “Deep Space Homer,” but it’s pretty damned close. Just the title is enough to show you that this is going to be an odd little story, since it kind of just sounds like the […]
Man this episode is good. Ned Flanders is really one of my favorite secondary characters, which is probably a little odd since most of his shtick is to be the obnoxious religious guy, which is a person I can’t stand in real life. But Ned is great, […]
So today’s a pretty momentous occasion for the Simpsons. This is a really big shift in the show, which up until this point was more or less pretty grounded in reality. Yeah, there was stuff that wasn’t too realistic, or that couldn’t have been done in a […]
Happy Monday everybody! Let’s talk about misogyny and the cutthroat world of plastic dolls! So of course this is a Lisa episode, although it would have been hilarious if this was all about Homer or Bart being upset with the sexism in the doll industry. We start […]
