Jimmy clearly brought her to the trial looking for a way to rattle Chuck, and also to humiliate him in front of her when the truth came out. 'I didn't want you to think less of me'… well, she does now… And Jimmy also knows how fucked up it is that he brought her there early… only telling the truth when it can have her…

Lots of funny lines - but I especially liked that they were willing to have a couple scenes not have to end on a gag, which is the constant temptation, and gives less dimension to the show I think if its always the case for the entirety of each episode. IE. I really liked the scene where Abe calls Bart, and that they…

Put Cohen higher and take off some of these forgettable punk/rock albums. Its intriguing to see how young most of these albums skewer, rather than being a really objective look at great music put out by old dogs… unless they died. Also, this is 'best albums released to a worldwide marketplace with enough advertising…

I found that to be a very satisfying conclusion to the season. But yes I'm ready for non-serialized episodes.

The cracks start to show in season 10, water gushing out of the dam by 12, some get patched up by 15, more get patched up by 18, more cracks by 22, and are sporadically patched and un-patched every few episodes now. Its delightfully inconsistent. You never know if you're getting a B, and A- or a C+. Either way I'm…

I had never seen anyone replicate old cinemascope epics so perfectly. Only the last Oscar bit seemed fake at all.

I don't know how to pick my favorites! This whole series is just magic. I would rate Final Transmission as the weakest and the rest as pretty much equal. I did wish The Bunker was longer, I'll give it that.

I had to pause and catch my breath at the drunk driving PSAs. "Cover one of your eyes…"

True! Also, as far as the comedy rule of threes goes, I'm so glad that the virgin one was the last said. That's a multi-layered lasagna of a gag!

Such a mess of an episode, objectively weak. Most latter day episodes are better than this, really. Too many plots. But its fun for sure. I felt like I was watching Season 13-14, which I found in a lot of ways I actually found to be the weakest seasons besides a few bright spots.

See, I grew up in the 90's and I still really appreciate new Simpsons, in a very different way than the old stuff. Sure it can't help but repeat itself, but life is cyclical, and we each get a few kicks out of the same cans with different labels before we croak. That's just how it goes.

Three ratings posted so far by fans. Two of them are an 'A' and an 'F'. Speaks profoundly at how divided Simpsons fans are. Exciting times!
I'm in the A- or B+ camp with this one. Felt very old fashioned, especially the care put into some of Homer's expressions. Clear story with logical conclusion, but very well told.…

Or better… Tang!

The thing about South Park being serialized that's particularly interesting is that they don't have months and months to write and rewrite their stories. They have to build on what they've made in that last six days… it could end up painting them into a corner, and we could get something a bit slapdash and…

A minus minimum! A worthy sequel that had huge shoes to fill.

Classic episode. Bummed they decided to end Children's Hospital. I want a Netflix Original Movie of it. David Wain, you've got your leg in the Netflix door, please make it happen!

I actually teared up during her song for the empty audience, in a way I haven't teared up at a Simpsons episode since maybe Lisa's Substitute… I have a real soft spot for sad Lisa episodes. 'Sad Lisa', coincidentally, is also a good Cat Stevens song.

I feel grateful we're in a time where a series so strange and with such all-stars is even possible. This is one of those things that feels like it happened in an alternate universe because it just seems implausible in this one. This was refreshing, to say the least. Louis is attempting to reinvent how we consume…
