I really laughed a lot during this episode there, Midge. Moe’s family is pretty far out. I shall grant this hilarious episode a solid B +.

“literally something I did on my old show when I played an insane person”

Like Dennis said, they seem to be locked into Baldwin-as-Trump for as long as this presidency lasts. That’s the problem with having a Very Special Guest as president. With W. they could, say, replace Darrell Hammond after a couple of outings that didn’t work and bring in Will Forte. Baldwin’s Trump is bigger than the…

It will be interesting if it is influenced by Game of the Thrones to the extent that it is less family friendly and more about sudden deaths, or Orcs getting sympathetic arcs. Grimdark, as they say.
