Damn you for taking my thread!!



I was getting the thread ready for tonight earlier this morning but didn't realize until then that it wasn't a new one tonight.

Synopsis:

Lisa hopes to counter Mr. Burns' fracking operation by bringing in Assemblywoman Maxine Lombard, but is aghast when the two political opponents take a liking to each other.

Season 26, Episode 5

I liked this week's episode. The episodes where Burns has some sort of a scheme going don't always work for me but this one was decent. I liked the parts with Patty and Selma and also thought Jane Fonda was a good guest star. I enjoyed the last little bit with her character and Burns during the credits.

Yep, this was an enjoyable episode. I don't think they stayed very true to Mr. Burns' character and they missed some obvious gags involving Smithers, but it was mildly funny.

High-quality Meth. That entire litany of items Homer kept knocking as they appeared was very funny.

Crocker Jarmen

Very enjoyable episode. I think big guest stars work much better when they are playing characters instead of Simpson-ized versions of themselves.

Definitely agree there. Some celebrities playing themselves work out really well but I'd much prefer they play a character like Fonda did last night.
