Being a teacher wasn't exactly his goal in life, and from everything we've seen it basically represents total bottoming out failure to him, so yeah, he is tragically bad at it and obviously should be nowhere near a classroom. He's probably a better car wash employee than a teacher.

It's a Decider ad, for those of us too lazy to instal ad blockers.

Hot goth landlord/girlfriend is the big weak link for me right now.
In a show where everything and everyone else is so ugly and real she feels like a contrivance, and I don't for a second think a woman like that would go for Jesse. For that matter, I'm not sure super hot yet still gettable sassy goth chicks like…

You know how to make this really cool?
It should turn out that John Connor is also a Highlander and this whole thing took place in the Matrix.

Yeah, having a nice ending where everything's explained and all the loose ends are tied up is good storytelling… But technically "perfect" storytelling is not always a component of great literature (or filmmaking.) In fact most awful books, shows and movies adhere to conventions (e.g. the 3 act structure in movies…

There's only one thing these guys needed.
A MELODY!

Yes, him, and the Germans love David Hasselhoff.

Jub-Jub, Roy, Zutroy, Three-Time Soap Box Derby Champ Ronnie Beck and Darryl Strawberry.

The drawings really are kind of bad
Are they supposed to be hand-drawn by Groening? They look like they were either tossed out with a Marks-A-Lot chisel tip marker on a cocktail napkin, or clumsily traced in Illustrator by an art department intern who doesn't quite get how to vary the line widths.

So has any actor/actress in the last 20-30 years been successful in starting a music career?

It's "good" in that "co-worker brings a guitar to the office and plays a few country songs that are surprisingly capable, but still completely amateur, and in no way should he ever think he'd actually make it in the music business beyond MAYBE joining a bar or church youth group band" kind of way.

Wasnt there just a verizon commercial where the family was talking about their new cell phone plan and the 10 year old kid was saying he had a friend named Skinny Pete? That can't be a coincidence..

It's always charming when ZMF makes a reasonable, valid and almost soft-spoken point in all caps.

That landlady girl feels like a walking TV stereotype… The smart, sarcastic hot goth chick who has an extremely improbable job (usually one normally held by 50 year old men), and who isn't dating some semi-successful asshole musician but instead finds herself attracted to Seth Greene-esque losers like Jesse.

I feel the same way about your beloved Paula Poundstone. I guess humor is subjective.

Fine. Then how about Tinkerbell?

Pff. Breakfast at Tiffanys was six or seven years earlier, and there's probably plenty of examples before that. Like Ariel in The Tempest, who's an actual Pixie.

Why don't you take the opportunity to be a Manic Pixie Dream Boy? I bet lots of women would love for one of those to fall into their lives. Just remember, even if she says she's not interested, that just means you have to keep trying harder until you finally win her over.

Mexicans. Lots of Mexicans really, really like The Smiths.

Well, say a guy didn't want to live any more, and he knew a hot girl he wanted to give his organs to, but he couldn't come up with a decent note before he settled in to the bathtub full of jellyfish. You're really telling me he shouldn't be allowed to hire a quirky poet to write his suicide note?
