Simpsons 5/19
 
no thread yet?

i liked it. H. Diddy and his murderous ho

I thought it was easily one of the worst episodes of the season. WAY below the quality of past few weeks. And the courtroom scenes only reminded me how much I miss Lionel Hutz.

cartman 05-19-02 09:46 PM

This was pretty dang horrible. also, why are they billing it as the season finale when there's a new episode on Wednesday?

Darren Garrison 05-19-02 10:12 PM

HORRIBLE episode. One of the worst that I've ever seen. Although I did like the screamapillar. Not the storyline, just the scremapillar itself. Maybe as much as the barfing frog-thing Bart made on the Harry Potter Halloween skit.

Otherwise, the episode is best forgotten.

Jackskeleton 05-19-02 10:14 PM

It was ok. there were parts of it that had there moments. the end was a let down though.

the screaming catapiler was pretty funny

"He's sexually attracted to fire, if he doesn't get constent reassurance he will die... You sure god wanted him to stay alive"
had me rolling on the floor. :p

I thought it started out pretty strong but after the old lady plot was introduced it went downhill pretty fast.

Mr. Burns covering for Homer while Carl and Lenny walked by cracked me up pretty hard though.

Venusian 05-19-02 10:43 PM

i'll admit the old lady story line was a little weak, but the episode was funny overall. I'm sure there are people in Other that would love the beginning about the EPA taking on landowner rights. the burns/lenny/carl thing was funny. wearing a beret on your wang. H. diddy. a lot of one liners in there

Mulder 05-19-02 11:03 PM

Loved that scene with Burnsie covering for Homer...my brother and I were cracking up pretty hard...

huzefa 05-19-02 11:15 PM

Not a good episode, but a mediocre one. Even after watching this episode, I am still thinking of last week's episode "I am Lugash, I make you star!".

"So the elephant that couldn't stop laughing.... was put to sleep."

Nearly wet myself.

This was one of the best episodes this season. Sure the plot was weak, but the worst Simpsons episodes have always been the ones with more plot and less random jokes. The Burns covering for Homer thing was hilarious, and I always enjoy a joke at the expense of FOX, especially since they cancelled all the best new shows.

MrN 05-20-02 09:45 AM

I thought both episodes they showed were pretty bad.

This show used to be so much better.....

as if we don't hear that every week........ :lol:

I thought the season finale was decent, but nothing spectacular. Wednesday's new episode w/ the Mob looks really good.

twikoff 05-20-02 09:53 AM

not one of the best of the season

but there were several parts that really cracked me up!

the homer/burns cover for me thing was great

and the jab at fox, with the worlds funniest frame ups..
damn, it came out of nowhere and was damn funny.. but I love it when shows trash all this reality crap that the networks are pushing on us anymore..

Gdrlv 05-20-02 10:31 AM

I'll have to agree with most. Not the best, but certainly not the worst, I've seen. Doesn't hold a candle to last week's episode though...

twikoff 05-20-02 10:36 AM

the bright side.. even though it was the season finale

its not the last new episode of the season.. we will get one more new episode wednesday night!! :D

:thumbsup:

I almost wet my pants laughing at that! The whole catapiller thing in general was hilarious - especially him laughing in the execution gallery!

I was weak story-wise, but the one-liners saved it for me. I also enjoyed Lenny, Carl and Moe taking marriage advice from Homer in the beginning.

Moe:"I can combine this with my speed dating process... [sigh]426 no's." :lol:

Groucho 05-20-02 11:23 AM

Well, this show edumacated me. I'd never heard of "Speed Dating" before Moe mentioned it. By coincidence, they had an article on it in today's paper so I read it to see what the hell it was. Turns out it's a social function where you rotate among members of the opposite sex and talk to each of them for 5 minutes. Sounds horrid...glad I'm married!

tygloalex 05-20-02 01:06 PM

"You put a miniature beret on your wang." :lol: Other than that, pretty weak.

Morf 05-20-02 02:24 PM

What a crappy episode. Screamapillar? What the hell was that?

MrN 05-20-02 03:00 PM

My favorite line has to be the last one:

"I've made my choice!"
rotfl

And then I was relieved the episode was over! :D

slop101 05-20-02 03:29 PM

"I've made my choice"... what was that in refrence to?

I just remember that it made all eight of watching laugh hysterically.

Let's say Homer was not making eye contact with Carmen Electra
