Well, planet or not, when that thing burns out we're all gonna be dead!

Actually, I'm guessing a small dick. A very small dick.

It sounds like he's trying to have it both ways: don't talk about my movie career, don't treat me like the big movie star moonlighting as a musician, I am but a lowly drummer in a traveling band… but here, let me dominate the entire discussion airing out a petty gripe, thanks, that'd be awesome.

Um, "Wock" Phoenix? "Man" Patinkin? "Bru" Willis? "Key" Reeves?

Any chance he was doing an impromptu one-man impression of his American President character from "Love Actually," after leaving office, drunk?

Yikes. I admire your perseverance. I was having a full-blown panic attack by the second or third time Thornton mumbled "I don't know what you're talking about."

I know, right? "Sun Rises… in Canada."

Hey, you fellas don't know what yer talking aboot. Canada invented radio and Billy Bob Thornton, dontcha know?

Apparently it's pretty tough. Maybe he doesn't know what "band" means.

I'm with you, twif. Jones is way too friggin' sweet. It's like if somebody dumped a mug full of sugar in another, better-tasting soda. IBC roolz, bitchz.

yeesh
I got as far as Ghomeshi asking, "Um, well, when did the band form?" and Billy Bob muttering, "I don't know what that means," and I couldn't take it anymore. If it gets more brutally awkward from there, I'll take your word for it.

…
oh hell yes.

Body massaaaage!

I really feel like the intense emphasis in the comments on "good lines" and "funny gags" in latter-day Simpsons episodes kinda misses the point. What made the show's first decade so great - in my opinion, at least - was not the quantity or frequency or even quality of good jokes in the show's episodes. It was the…

Wow, Speaking English, you pretty much nailed everything I tried to express in my earlier comments, only eight thousand times better than I could. Thanks.

From my understanding - and several of the man's actual quotes in real, actual media - Groening is more involved with The Simpsons on a day-to-day basis in the past three seasons than he has been since the first four. Whether that's true or a bloated, self-satisfied choad's attempt at propping up the saggy corpse of…

I really do feel like there's a lot more to it than more of the show's jokes falling flat (for one thing, which I won't get into in this comment, I think there are more jokes crammed into each second of the show than there used to be, to its overall detriment).

You make a pretty good case, 113, but I actually did catch "Gone Maggie Gone" the other day, and while it wasn't nearly as bad as the small number of more recent Simpsons eps I've watched over the past decade or so - and, since I'm a new dad, the resolution made me get all choked up - I still felt like I was watching…

bleah
I understand what you're trying to do, and I'm willing to concede that not every episode since season 11 has been utter crap, but, ick. The number of groaningly obvious pop-culture parodies on this list only reinforces my decision to abandon the show about nine years ago. Hey look, it's The Simpsons Do DaVinci…

Really?
