You did it Tila. You got people talking about you. Let's pack it in boys. Another job well done.

Fair enough, and I'll admit that it's silly to expect the show to maintain the same impact it had when it was still new. You're right that they shouldn't keep adding new rules or new pieces until the show has changed beyond recognition. When I wrote 'running wild' I was thinking less about things being crazy and off…

The issue with the plots isn't that they need to be amazing. They just need to be functional. One of the main differences between past and present Simpsons (aside from the general quality of the jokes) is that even though the story or plot was secondary to old Simpsons episodes, it was tight and clean enough that it…

I think the reason this story didn't have any heft to it was that nothing led into anything else. Neither Homer nor Milhouse have much motivation to find common ground in each other or abandon their other half. Homer is just dejected by the football man and Milhouse doesn't want to help his dad hurt himself for…

Man, I used to be so into Adventure Time. I still appreciate it, but right around season 6 I just couldn't get into it the way I had before. I think some of the series's best episodes have come out since then, and I'm so glad it's still doing so much good work as it starts easing towards its conclusion, but it just…

I love both shows but If there's one thing I can say that favors Steven Universe over Adventure Time, it's that Steven Universe explores its themes in much more powerful and effective ways.

Oh my god I loved this episode. Every time Andy talked I just had the biggest fuckin' smile on my face. I love Dave Willis and his Carl voice, and it fit the character so well. He just makes every bit of dialogue sound completely real and relatable, doesn't matter what he says. Oh God, here come the run on…

AV man, I think you missed the point of Butters's u-turn. He wasn't showing a sincere and honest appreciation for Heidi or women in general, he was doing exactly what Cartman was doing and shining a lens on how phony it is. He was putting on a show to make up for whatever he did that may have upset women in the past…

I'm always turned off when statistics tell us who 'should' be getting a job in the entertainment business. I'm entirely for the integration of varied and different voices that may come from different backgrounds or incorporate different philosophies of life in order to create a more worldly spread of content. …

People in Hollywood are mean to each other. Also they compliment each other. The world watches on in amazement.

I really didn't enjoy the joke of Homer being all emotionally caught up in Castro's speech until the fifth second of uninterrupted clapping. Thank god they didn't cut it. Also, I Love Lucy sure was a thing. It sure was.

Most of the episode was likely recycled. Everything that didn't directly reference the result could have been kept. So the opening scene, Randy talking with Garrison and then his family, the exchange between Hillary and Gerald and Bill's talk with Butters were the only things that could not have been completely…

Well that was… I think that… What I liked about it…. Man. When they showed the trailer for this episode with Randy in a daze talking to his family, I thought the sudden time crunch would wind up giving us a very slow, minimalist episode where half of it is just the Marsh family trying to come to terms with the…

I would actually be interested to see their alternate universe reluctant Garrison as bombastic President Trump. It could be a fun way to subvert his policies and actions in a way that is undermined by the characters self doubt. Or, Garrison might feel a real high from the presidency and start acting like his old…

It's over. The election is over. All this nastiness and treading water is done. Now we have to see what Trump will do. How many of his wild promises were real, and how many has he not told us about yet? What is he actually planning to do? How much is Pence going to take control of the technical side of things…

Anyone ever thought about how Draculas are so posh? I mean, if they have to like, hunt down humans to suck their blood during the night and are forced to rest during the day, how do they have so much time to dress nice and collect interesting stuff to decorate their castles with? There's a reason people have time to…

Oh my god, this is the kind of person I wish I turned into when I got black out drunk. It's not a far cry.

I always like Hugo when he's thrown into the mix. I feel like the show's misuse of his antagonism is part of why he fits into this world perfectly. He was the first real villain Bob had to go up against, and the relationship between the two has always been a treat for me. He's the perfect foil for Bob in that he's…

Oh my god. This was good the whole way through. I'm VERY aware that I'm a little too hard on new Simpsons (like so many of us down here in the comments usually are), but it's been such a long time since I could honestly say an episode was good the whole way through.

I've been deemed legally sane for six months now and that should be enough for you.
