we thought she’d be able to hold it in long enough to make enough money for this to be worthwhile.

anyone else think koopa looks kind of familiar. Like if he had a really bad wig for example.

i have a better idea. we reboot it with kevin waking up from a dream, in bed, with leah remini’s character there. He explains he dreamed he had a different job and was married to a different woman. Before he can finish, jerry stiller appears and yells something indistinguishable. He gets up to see he worse his IPS…

so roseanne literally had trump save the day? seems pretty close to fanfiction.

My only wish was we knew more about future sue than “she got married.” At least imply what her job is or is a stay at home parent, or something.

The joke where Don Jr asks eric what he stays when visiting and Eric replies “sorry” was perfect. Until they elaborated on it and ruined it.

How could they do a trump sketch, with The Boss playing and NOT have Chris Christie show up? Blasphemy!

“Guy Montag” sounds like his editor told him “John Every Man” was too on the nose.

Bow’s should dump Dre tbh, he’s just an ass. Selfish, intractable, harsh, downright abusive towards junior, and arrogant, which makes the opening narration where he talks about a social issue harder. I agree with what he says, but it’s coming from an asshole. Kinda like when alec baldwin discusses politics.

What exactly was the point of showing the moms in the cold open as being pro-trump? Was it just a way of saying they weren’t doing politics tonight, or a commentary on older white women supporting trump, or a joke about how the show goes after him, while the actor’s mom like him, or what?

Part of the problem is that the show was and still is very contrarian for contrarianism’s sake. Before the status quo was clearly conservative, so they took liberal or anti-conservative stances. Now though we’re in a very weird limbo where conservativism and/or “alt-right” is being touted as the counterculture, while…

I know it was a joke, but imagine if this was the simpson’s halfway point and there was another 636 episodes left.

the forest hermit: 5 stars

no, no, dig up!

matt groening was a counter culture cartoonist back in the day and quite a bit to the left. I hope he’s at least a little upset at this support from national review and ted cruz.

how has this season been? Without GOT or even Veep, it’s just not worth the HBO subscription.

the mueller sketch was much better than their last one.

technically he is correct, the best kind of correct.

Like JK Rowling and Joss Whedon, the simpsons has been active too long without growing and seems to have found itself a regressive force without realizing it or willing to change or embrace it.

Using lisa as the mouthpiece for this mealy defense was a ridiculous drop for the character, going from idealistic progressive to white feminist. tho really, it’s the show’s issue.
