Yes we are only in season 7, this Av Club hobby of pinpointing the exact moment when Simpsons started to decline is getting more and more ridiculous!

Exactly J.P McPickleshitter, eight is young to become a vegetarian and for that reason I don't think that the episode previous to this seem like character inconsistency. In fact I like that she hasn't always just been a vegetarian and we got to see what made her become one. She acts like a child in this episode, who…

Can someone help me out. Most of you guys have pictures by your user names, after 100 comments I've decided I'd like one too (specifically one of Lord Thistlewick). How do I make a picture / avatar appear when I comment. Thanks in advance

Mmm, I agree what Semper fudge said doesn't make a lot of sense, though I have to admit, I used to use this argument when I came across people who support the death penalty, i.e. 'if you believe it in it would you be happy to flick the switch / pull the guillotine / give the injection / um… kick the stool away?'

ha, ha yeah when I first saw that episode, I remember thinking how amazing it would be to live directly above (and below) a bowling alley

Good point Rocketman. As I said above I've been a vegetarian since the age of 12, but when I was college, a lot of people I knew started to become vegetarian. As far as I could see they wasn't being sanctimonious (or even trying to nudge the conversation in the direction of vegetarianism), but other students were…

Really disappointed the review didn't use the image of Lisa's thought bubble, imagining the hot dog ingredients. They went with the chicken thought bubble…so fucking close

Not a song but for me it was that 'I'm ready, I'm ready' that Spongebob was chanting on his way to his driving test, run though my head whenever I had an exam / had to do anything I was nervous or excited about.

If you've ever seen Penn and Teller Bullshit, they apply the same method pretty much every episode.

I first saw this episode in 2000 (I know it came out in 1995) and I was 12 years old, which is basically the perfect age to watch this particular episode. After this episode I never ate meat again, I'd like to be able to say it was The Smiths or something cooler that got me into vegetarianism, but it was this episode…

The first time I saw this episode, that line 'Liii-sa, I thought you loved me, looooved me-ee', was basically my brains screen-saver, if I wasn't thinking about anything specific, my brain would pretty automatically start having that running it through it. Some other great quotes on this very quotable episode;

This is probably my favorite episode of all time, its as funny as it is sweet, every scene is simultaneously funny and heart warming. I think the Lisa-Homer relationship episodes where Lisa is a bit of a do-gooder (I mean do-gooder in a good way, i.e. someone who wants to do good) conflicting with Homer, when he's…

Thanks rtozier2011. Have to say Lisa the Vegetarian, is one of my all time favorites, so it will be cool revisiting it.

Anyone know when they're reviewing 'Lisa the Vegetarian'?

I also like that he had a flying toaster screen saver

Some more reasons to love this episode-

@ Badwolf, I can see what you mean, Fight Club definitely influenced The Machinist. But Fight Club doesn't have a monopoly on stories about insomnia and dissociated personalities, meaning no one can ever do another movie like that again.

@Billkwando re. Wicker Man. Mmm, I just meant the fact that there never was a missing child and the Islanders real reason for getting the policeman to the Island.

Fuck down-votes, I admit that apart from Unbreakable, The Village is my favorite Shyamalan film. They done a good job of building up suspense and creating this world where there was this constant sense of impending doom hanging over the place. The actors who played the elders done a good job of carrying around…
