How many times has Willie's shack been destroyed? The poor man has been left homeless quite a few times.

These episodes might not have as many funny jokes as the untouchable classic Simpsons (aka 90s simpsons) but the few gold caliber ones are better than anything else. Can't wait...

Is this episode going to air on time? Is there a chance Nascar will run over?

I liked the whole singing bit much better when they did it with Apu.

I loved how Bart and Lisa just stared at him when he began singing, almost acting like they had seen this all before since the plot was basically the same as "Homer and Apu."

"Wouldn't it be adequate?"

Nice spoof, but Homer's search for his pants wasn't funny at all.

Terrible. I don't think I even chuckled once.

I could see the ending a mile away.

Nelson's line about new wood in shop class was good

Once Lisa took over the main part of the story it went downhill.

I missed the first half of the episode, so all I saw was the wussified Willie. The only funny thing I caught was the previously mentioned "Boink Slut".

Exactly. Only Lisa could drive a GK Willy episode off a cliff like that.

I am not one of the usual suspects of this in a Simpson's thread, but this was a horrible episode. The only thing slightly humerous was Nelson's line and the boink slut bit.

About American Dad - did any of you actually need to Google Markie Post after Stan mentioned her? I know I had to.

Well, except for the part where Willie was being "bombarded" while singing..
