Simpsons 5/22
 

still 5 minutes away

but last new episode of the season :(

i liked it. but then again i liked the one sunday that most people didnt

I thought it was a GREAT episode with lots of great lines and hidden stuff..

anyone notice the butterfly screaming at the start? is it me or do Catipillars turn into Butterflies?

I loved seeing "Arthur" coming back to school (along with Fat Albert and Jughead?)

I tivo'ed Enterprise so I can't list all the great lines, but there were lots.

Sopranos guest starred, but no voices :(
Loved the "spoof" of the opening credits.

"You know, I've had a lot of jobs...Boxer, Mascot, Astronaut, Imitation Krusty, Baby Proofer, Trucker, Hippie, Plow Driver, Food Critic, Conceptual Artist, Grease Salesman, Carney, Mayor, Grifter, Body Guard for the Mayor, Country Western Manager, Garbage Commissioner, Mountain Climber, Farmer, Inventor, Smithers, Poochie, Celebrity Assistant, Power Plant Worker, Fortune Cookie Writer, Beer Baron, Kwik-E-Mart Clerk, Homophobe, and Missionary, but protecting SP gives me the best feeling of all."

:lol:

One question...Who exactly were Kent Brockman and Artie the Eye in the Sky broadcasting too, and how was the camera working?

It's a cartoon. Don't apply logic. ;)

I thought that episode was awesome! Especially when Fat Tony was driving to The Sopranos theme. :lol:

Was it just me or was the part from the trailer with the "I haven't been a size 6 since my prom" not even in the show? Also, did anybody see what the Superintendant Chalmers billboard said? It went by so fast I couldn't read it.

The "size 6" joke definitely wasn't in there. The episode didn't need the scene though. It was a damn funny episode...Homer's job listing...the Sopranos theme...Wiggam and the pinata. I liked this one.

The billboard read "Superintendent Chalmers: Now More than Ever."

Doh! I completely forgot about this being on tonight.

They left out one or two. Sugar profiteer and Beer Smuggler.

Any others?

My favorite line was:

"You may remember me from halloween trick or treating. I was Jar-Jar Binks!"

:lol:

I too, forgot about this and missed it.
Anyone know if it's going to be re-aired soon?

Let this be a lesson to all those that say Simpsons isn't good anymore. Jumped the shark indeed! Harumph!

Wow....very good episode.

"De-Arrrrggh, and I have a TiVo full of De-arrgh-ma and Greg episodes to watch." LOL!!!!!!

And the 99 cent porno store with Krusty walking out of it...man what f'ing hilarious episode! best I've seen in a few years.

:lol: @ the Sopranos spoof. very funny stuff. lots of in-jokes too.

Actually Homer did say he was the "Beer Baron" they did seem to miss the sugar one though. That was a classic.

Why, may I ask, couldn't Fox have aired this episode on a Sunday ... when Simpsons is supposed to air? Would it have been too much to ask Fox to push back the season finale one week? Sheesh.

Don't tell me I'm the only one that got the High Noon spoof!

A pretty good episode, but not one of the best. The highlight for me was Lenny and Carl driving towards each other chatting on the cellphones. A welcome return for Johnny Tightlips: "I ain't sayin' nothin'!"

Isn't this the second episode where Wiggum loses his job and his life goes down the toilet? I can't remember the circumstances from last time, but IIRC he "saves the day" at the end of that one (similar to this episode, except it's really him).

Last time was the Beer Baron episode where Rex Banner took Wiggum's place.

"Send him back to Momma, boys."

People with those battery powered televisions. People with generators. People in hospitals which have their own power source. People.... you get the picture.

I don't know how TV stations do it, but in Houston we've had a few weather emergencies where the neighborhood that a TV station is in were without power, but the station never stopped broadcasting.

rotfl Moe looted his own bar! rotfl

Mr. Burns: "We'll just divert power away from the orphangae. Who will they complain to, their parents?"

:lol:

Then it wouldn't air during sweeps, which ended yesterday. Network logic.

Great episode, IMO. Much better than the previous Sundays'. What was that one line: "Working harder than Ricky Martin's girlfriend"? :lol: And I liked Screamapillar's return appearance. Some good laughs throughout this episode.

One episode was entirely devoted to him getting a new job... as Scorpio's assistant in "You Only Move Twice." Can't believe they didn't include that one.

"I must have a guardian angel...with a rifle."
