It's very interesting that so many people who are plugged into the series still picked up on how this one episode was something different, and not in a good way. I'm glad to know that this was a "special" episode and hopefully we can leave it in the past now.

Surprisingly most people have seen less than a third of The Simpsons.

I like the song, I like the obsession of jazz hands Homer has, don't care for American Idol, or American Idol winners who appear in this episode. This episode is smack dab in some of the worst seasons, 14-19.

Generic complain about lack of certain show.

I'm so happy these lists exist. Now I know that everything else is crap and I don't have to pay attention to them.

Well there was no Mcgarnagle mention, but I'm glad that he was partially included in the Freddy Quimby video clip… that`s about half of the episodes length.

Awesome! Despite my comic-book-guy level of sarcasm, I will undoubtedly check out every article.

you're right, I can't count.

IDK season eight isn't really that great. The tone of the show started to shift, and season two was really closer to season one than three, so lets just say there were only four classic seasons.

Oh goody, 1 whole week of hearing how the simpsons isn't any good after the first 8 season. Usually that's limited to the weekly reviews of the new episodes. Thanks A.V Club!

My god, this line kills me. It's just such a weird way to say 'get them.' I love it!

I love how this episode builds. The fight at the end works because they don't focus on it. Marge and Homer go into the house and have a cup of coffee. You can still see the fight going on in the background while Marge and Homer discuss the motivations and emotions that they just displayed. It's fine to go crazy in the…

It's so tongue-in-cheek its through the cheek and can lick the lingering Doritos dust.

TBH I don't mind this coming from A.V Club. These goofy articles/list come maybe 5 times a year and they're nowhere near as obliviously obnoxious as cracked or gawker. Keep up the day job A.V Club and if you must peruse these types of endeavors, well lets keep it to a minimum.

Well it certainly is a website.

I thought my sarcastic complaining to the A.V Club's sarcastic complaining was obvious, but I think we both should have used the sarcastic font.

Stamos! Damn him and his jet black hair and winning smile! Oh! I'm a
failure…a failure! I'm so disorganized! I never call anyone back!
YOU SHOULD SEE MY CAR IT'S A MESS! I'm a mess! I go to the submarine
sandwich restaurant and I leave my submarine sandwich restaurant value
card at home EVERY (bangs head on…

God no, I'm more of a Anger Management guy. I prefer subtler shows.

Once again A.V Club chooses all the critical darling shows, books, films, games, and everything else over what the people are really watching. Good job at ignoring everything good in your lists.
