Hell, I've done it with pigs. Real, no-foolin' pigs. (aide whispers in ear) Aww shoot, Quebec's got the bomb. I gotta go, but if you're ever near the White House, there's a tool shed out back. I'm in there most of the day.

Question 16 is actually ridiculously strong, especially considering how late it is in the interview.

He wrote an actually not-bad Simpsons vacation episode, which is an amazing feat.

Apparently it was written by Newsradio writer Josh Lieb. Glad he got paid.

Consulting producer
Apparently this is how they rank

Every good new episode is an F compared to any episode from season 5.

Swartzwelder is awesome, but The Regina Monologues is a terrible episode. It's a shame because that's his last script, and it ends his career on a really bad note. Instead watch Swartzwelder's Treehouse of Horror XIV. The best Treehouse of the 00s.

The Simpsons' problem isn't that they repeat themselves. It's that the bad episodes are full of shitty jokes delivered badly.

Regina Monologues is exactly what's wrong with vacation episodes. Terrible from beginning to end.

They definitely blew it with this list, picking some of the worst episodes of the past few years. But there are lots of yummy morsels they ignored.

Besides the end, the Linguo episode is one of the best latter day Simpsons ever.

Was flipping around and saw Patton. Never watched Dollhouse before. Action shows aren't my thing.

I kind of pity anyone here who read this and hasn't seen the movie.

In a somewhat recent Howard Stern interview, Norm seemed pretty uninterested in being a big movie star. Maybe it's just sour grapes.

I think he's actually being too harsh. Any movie like this slows down the gags when wrapping up the story. Dirty Work is at least pretty good all the way to the end.

Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall of text!

I quit this show because it's too painful to watch the characters constantly fail miserably. I read these reviews each week hoping to read that they've changed the show into later-seasons Newsradio.

Cute cartoon characters acting violent and swearing is painfully unfunny to me. The "hu-huh!" laugh every couple of sentences was quite funny however.

The intentionally writery quips and broad gestures and delivery. I just don't go for so-bad-it's-good. I get what an AVclubber gets from it, but my stomach is too weak.
