The Producers: HARDFLOP.

Oh look, Wes saw Amarcord.

Yeah, but for propaganda purposes they are saying so. Also, that this episode was commissioned by the CIA.

Venezuelan government is not happy how they were depicted on Barack Obama's favorite show:

Valencia, Venezuela. We have rival baseball teams, stand on opposite sides of a lake and disdain they are wealthier, larger and overall more important. It's mostly a one-sided thing.

They have a 9-year old writing? I still bet he does it better than Tim Long.

Raped by Pandas is The Simpsons' version of Jumping the Shark.

*Grabs his club*

Where's your avatar from? I know I've seen it…

I miss when Flanders was still a likeable character.

Now I imagine Ed McMahon laughing at Rod Serling's ultra-serious monologues.

I hear praises about the music and animation and characterization and so forth but I have seen a couple of episodes and I don't see it. Sure, they try to do far more than just being another merchandise-centered franchise and they do succeed in this regard and has some positive messages, but beyond that is somewhere

My thoughts exactly. They keep praising the animation and writing but it seems rather run-of-the-mill to me, especially compared to Gravity Falls and Adventure Time.

"I'm very sorry, ma'am, but could you help an old denominator, like me, gather his spectacles?"

He became a goth Charlie Sheen!

Or get called an asshole and still be forgiven becuase of his talent.

By the way, is anyone else getting a Troy McClure vibe from him?

OK. I will biite, what's up withe angels theme?

Perhaps they finally where getting the hang of writing hour-long episodes? Well, not so much with Horace Ford, since it was an adaptation of what, I assume is, longer than half-hour performance, but "On Thursday" is pure poetry and a tremendous use of a sci-fi setting without being gimmick-y.

Is Joe Pesci a Genie and Robert De Niro a cowboy in your mental images too?
